+1. talked to my brother recently about the army. he's been in for 12 yrs and just signed for another 10 or 12, i forget. he says its basically just like a normal job unless your deployed. he's also been to iraq, kuwait, afganistan, italy, france, germany, etc. + all over the US for training. he's mountain division so they get deployed more than some others i think.
the one thing he doesn't like is the lax in ranks. he thinks it should be more disciplined and gets pissed when some of the new recruits question his orders.
