Look at kosovo, How many Reserves and NG units were called up for six month stints there under "wet willy's" reign. This has caused alot of grief for some of those guys. There needs to be a reorganization. But I would'nt want to sacrifice the reserves or gaurd though. A good back up is always a thing to have. Unless..... they are going to reinstitute the draft???( nagggghhghh)

Still happening. SFOR (Bosnia-Herzegovinia) has consisted of rotating NG units. Currently 35th IN DIV (Kansas); to be followed in October by 34th IN Div (Minnesota); then by 38th (Indiana) then 42nd (New York)...

If we're looking a Wet Willie's callups, let's not forget Haiti, where we replaced cruel, corrupt dictator Cedras, with cruel, corrupt, but technically elected dictator Aristide. Bunches of Reserve and Guard soldiers were stuck there over the next couple years.

d.o.l.
