Not sure if I posted in here or not, but if I did, sorry for the second post. Was in the Army for a while, but got out because I lost one of my legs to an IED in Iraq. I was an 11B for a very long time, but now I sit at home, type on Gaia, and make wooden pens, pencils, and pen/pencil cases for a living. Not much money, but at that's why I had kids. So they could support me when I got back, and when I get old. Hooah!

Yeah. They are, but it's still not enough to support me and the four kids that I have living at home. Not to mention, I need money to buy all of the parts for the pens and pencils that I make. So the money from the military just isn't enough, so I make the pens, pencils, and pen/pencil cases in order to have enough money to do all of that.

18 with 4 kids and still going to high school. curious as to how you could have been infantry for a long time..... burning_eyes

My husband has been infantry for 9 yrs and is a disabled Vet thanks to 4 IED attacks while he was in Iraq. in 2 days will be 2 yrs he has been home.

Medical retirement is given to people who have been in at least 11 yrs or have injuries that stop them from being military anymore or being able to reclass. burning_eyes

Hello. I'm currently dating an army man. Looking for women with more experience in this. How do you deal with never being able to know anything? My guy got deployed recently and is now in iraq. I always feel stupid cause he's upset but can't say why.He works on the line. I sleep with my cell phone on my pillow waiting for a call , im text anything so i know he's alive. Is there anyways to make the time between calls easier? I was shocked when he got deployed as we had no real warning. We knew it was comming but all of a sudden it was like we're going tonight and bam he was gone. sweatdrop

25U here, but I'll be damned if I've touched my MOS since I've been in, haha. Just found out today I'm headin' overseas in less than a week though. I've been on the rear detachment for a while now 'cause of a major eye surgery (no, not LASIC). Things were getting STUPID around here though so I'm looking forward to putting in my time in the sandbox.

Ex Army girlfriend here. You get used to it, yes it takes a while but you do. It took me the first year of us dating to get used to it. I'm one of those people that wants to know so they can help the people they love but ways I got around is just asking how he feels. Forget the why stress the how and then just make him feel better. Just be there for him and it'll make things easier. If you knew the why it'd only make you worry I'm sure. Sometimes it's just best not knowing.

Keep yourself busy if you sit around doing nothing, waiting it'll make things worse because you'll be doing nothing to distract your mind which'll make you think/dwell about it more which then will cause more stress and problems.

It's always nice when the Military surprises you with deployments rolleyes They say it wont happen and then a very short time after they say it wont it does. Pain in the a** it is.

Oh and it helps to not watch the news, really it does the media just twists things a lot and seriously just don't.
