In his defense I also retired prior to a one-year deployment to Afghanistan. But I will say this. I had been deployed five times before that. Somalia, Haiti, Kosovo,, Iraq and Afghanistan.
I doubt that he has even 1/5 of my deployments under his belt..

Were you a Sergeant Major?

The retired sergeant major kind of addressed your situation [at 8:40 in the video]. He said that under stop-loss procedures, once you've been notified, you're going, unless something major came up where you didn't have to go [there was something about a 90-day window in there].

I think 5 deployments would qualify.

Walz retired six months into a mandatory two year service as a requirement of the Command Sergeants Major Academy.
