It won't happen, it will only get troops and families hopes and then their morale will be shot down. :sad

I am so mad that this govt doesn't give a rat's ass about our soldiers :mad :mad

My brother just told me that he's expecting he'll get orders any time now. He just got back home in July. I assume that it's the same everywhere but most of the NG units in Oklahoma have so many empty slots in units that are deploying that they are having to pull people from others, including ones that haven't even been home for 6 months.
