I'm leaving Options

don't worry, in a few years i'll be coverin your back from over head

No, nobody wants to go to Iraq. I won't lie, I kind of don't want to. But I gotta realize why I joined the army to begin with, and its to serve and protect my country.

A deployment to Iraq is going to be fun I think. I've learned you gotta try and make it fun in order for time to fly. You can't look at it all negative and expect for time to fly. So I try to look at the best in everything I do. The best thing I can think about going to Iraq is the experience, I get to travel, and I get a lot of money.

I didn't mean to be rude when I said you guys didn't have balls...Yesterday I heard some people who were in there 20's probably and talking about how the military, and this war is the worst thing that ever happend to the US...And its people like that that i just want to throw their punk @$$e$ in Iraq, and have them attempt to deal with the stuff that we go through on a daily basis....so no offense to anyone here about the whole "no balls" comment.

I'll be finding out tomorrow when I'll be leaving, i'm wicked excited. I'm going with a lot of my friends so its going to be one hell of a time!

It looks like what you do while over there won't put you in the line of fire. My friend sean is a Marine and he's about to leave for his second deployment in iraq and he says the army is the ones getting shot at and bombed bc they are the units who patrol the cities. Good luck over there.

I have my balls, but i can't go due to natural and surgical reasons. So you're serving for me as well.

Yeah, hate to say it - but I'm going to get a good bit of money and experience. Plus i'm going to get to travel and see somewhere else then the US.

So i'm probably going to sell my celica, and buy a 350Z, or G35 when I come back...

hate to get rid of the celica, i've only had it for like 2 months - but, I'm not going to need it when I leave.

don't buy either or those cars....my GT-S STOCK can spank them... I raced my buddy that had a Z and he was ticked he lost

WTF????

are you delusional or was he going in reverse?

I think he was given a 4 or 5 second head start.

Thanks BigRog, for putting your life on the line when others cannot. I for one, believe that they should be paying the military more for going to Iraq. In some areas the COLA is pathetic. My brother-in-law is on his second tour there; now on the flight line working on helicopters for the Army, he spent his previous tour there with the Marines' Special Forces. I hope everything works out there for you. And yes, I know the equipment you're using! Crap doesn't begin to describe it!

Carpe Diem ... seize the moment.

always thought it was seize the day...

BAM!..lol

any ways..good luck fighting a pointless war. From my standpoint, i understand why any country needs an amry, and i have alot of respect for any one who has spent time in the army *my grandfathers, grandmothers, and my cousin were all in/are in the canadian forces*, but i think this whole war in iraq is stupid and pointless.

But yea, good luck over there, and hopefully you return safely.

i agree with you 110%. i have balls, just dont feel like putting them on the line for the reasons above. i respect you and all my close friends that are in iraq currently. some in okinawa having more fun than those in iraq...lol. according to the stories i hear. the ones in iraq hate it and regret ever signing up. i remember in high school the recruiters selling them the beautiful picture guaranteeing they wouldnt be deployed to iraq - all of them. except one buddy that was brainwashed badly. fortunately the others didnt catch on and we still hang out when they come home for a bit. be safe out there, bigrog and return home safely.

Well..guys...got bad news from my company commander...I can't go. I didn't do SRC (Final step before you deploy) Monday or Tuesday..so..they won't do SRC for an individual..and thats the last SRC before the deployment..so..

I can't go..which is kind of awesome..but really sucks...

So..yeah, thanks for the input and wishes..

but...not going anymore..lol damnit man!
