It's a balancing act--your oppurtunites versis the chance for whatever administration is in power right now to send you to die in some foreign ****hole.
Only you can decide.

meet the new boss, same as the old boss -
I'm pretty much going to do it. My next thing is they have a psyop unit here in Sacramento and then they have another one in Walnut Creek (San Fransisco Bay Area) which is about 2 hours away. The up siide to the bay area unit is they are on "jump status" meaning they get to parachute twice a year. If they have openings then I think a two hour drive might be worth it to be air borne.

Ignore David Floyd.Originally posted by David Floyd
Definitely do not re-enlist. Especially with our current administration, you could very easily be pulled into some bull**** war somewhere, or even worse, occupation duty.
Go ahead and do what your heart tells you, not some anarchist.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

I highly recommend holding off until this current administration is out of office, and the world stops hating us.Comment

More crap.
Again I will reiterate do what your heart tells you, oerdin. Do not listen to the left wing thuggery in the world.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

The biggest question is can you afford to get deployed? If yes, then go for it. If not, don't."Beauty is not in the face...Beauty is a light in the heart." - Kahlil Gibran

I'm 27, not married, no kids, but I do have a girlfriend. My civilian job being a Geologist and my military job (during my six years in) was a Psychological oppurations specialist. If I reenlisted that's what I would ended up doing again. BTW I'm only talking about reenlisting into the reserves so no full time duty for me without a Presidential call up.Originally posted by CorpusScorpius
What exactly is your job in the Army? Do U have any family (Married w/ kids)? What would be the civilian Equivalent of your current job? Would U be able to take a pay cut if you were called to go overseas?(Civilian jobs tend to pay more)

Oerdin,
Actually, I know someone from work who is on extended deployment in either Germany or Iraq (he wasn't too sure which it would be when we last spoke) and works with psyops - he's actually an interrogator, IIRC.Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/DaveDaDouche

Thats right....YOU.
If you could somehow get into a position where you would not be able to be deployed into combat, I would support it. I think everyone needs a little service time in their lifetimes.Comment

Oh, I've already had a little service time thank you.
You are right about the rest of the world hating us because of Bush though and that the resrves would end up in Korea when the "Great Leader" wakes up one day and decides he doesn't like his afro and blames it on America.

And fight off the evil Russian invaders who are trying to take Finland's jobs? Oh what the Finns don't have any jobs. My mistake.
