Default Re: Support Our Troops? Apparently not.

This conversation makes me SO glad I'm a civilian now.

When I signed up, everyone (enlisted) had to sign for 10 years, and that was split between active/inactive time. I signed for 5 active, served two at my first duty station, then got sent overseas for a four year tour. That meant I got involuntarily extended for a year on active duty, and that was during peace time. When I got on inactive duty, I got fat, out-of-shape, and drug addled (and got a promotion).
