Thread: How many tours of duty have you served?

So I am back after a fairly long leave of absence. I was training to serve a 3rd tour of duty in Afghanistan when I tore my ACL ligament and was put on a medical leave of absence (it sucks to i hate sittin on my ass not doin nothin) I haven't been around for a while and I'm sure I missed out on a lot anyone wanna update me?

I actually haven't served a tour yet in Iraq or Afghanistan, as I am currently stationed in Korea, and we can't deploy from here. Technically we are serving a 'tour', but I don't count it. And I look forward to going to the dustbowl.

Any member of any service of any (allied) country that served their country, especially went into the warzone, I have complete respect for, and even if it's not my freedom they are fighting for cause it's a different country, I still thank you for fighting for someones.

although I never been in action, I served my country during peace time in the USMC, I was stationed in Beirut, and that is almost like being in war, but nevertheless I have mad respect for those that decide to wear the uniform and protect our way of live. Oh and by the way I reenlisted twice

Wazup fellow Veterans and Service Members,

I thank you all for your selfless service and the commitment you all made for your country.


P.S. DantheMan keep up the "Fight to Night" spirit alive in Korea, and be ready because anything can happen there, as well as you can be deployed from Korea because it happened in 2004.

Only 1 tour for me so far. I am in the USAF and deployed to Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan in 2006-2007. I had one of those famous In Lou Of taskings.. So far the best experience for me in my military career.

I never know that there are so many army-men in T-I. As of my life,My friend works at US air force and I've been for tour for roughly some weeks

None but I would like to thank anyone who has!

I've only been on CARAT cruises pumping out all over and around the western Pacific with the 31st MEU(SOC). I enjoyed the occasional port stops we made in different countries. The closest I came to war was when North Korea test fired a long range ballistic missile over Japan. We were deployed in less than 24 hours.

I have 2 tours under my belt now, just got back in June from my last one in Afghanistan. My first one was in Iraq where I was going between most the old fob's there, but mostly Anaconda - Masul(city smells like shit 365). I also just got word that my unit will be put back in the Bubble come February and can deploy again as early as May. I dont mind it over there though really, just this time I want to go over there as something other than 11B(Infantry) lol.
