some of you might read my latest post about the national guard. My husband re enlisted for five more years and did so without discussing with me but I understand why he did it, to secure us in our future and our little soon to be family. So my question is should I still be a little sad that I can't say he is coming home for sure cause everytime I think of it, it just makes me get all teary :( oh well, I'm petty sure it we be all ok. Havent seen his goober butt for the longest time and he is suppose to come back in 2 weeks, which he still his but gotta go back in july. So little time to spend... Just needed to vent sorry ladies. He is coming out from the army to the National Guard.

    I'm national guard too. My unit is on their 2nd deployment right now. Thankfully I got to skip out on this one both my brothers are also deployed now. I couldn't imagine how my dad would be with all 3 of his kids in Afghanistan. I ets in November and am not reenlisting. I will have 12 years total in but its not working for this single mom anymore. My baby I'm prego with now dad is not involved so I will not be able to have a family care plan.

    Well I'm NJ national guard and my deployment to Iraq from 04 to 05 was a total of 18 months. 6 months in the states training and 12 months in country. I joined in 1999 so 5 years before my deployment. But now my state is on a every 3 to 4 years we are getting deployed. But every state is different.
