8. Thanks -- Is a Pattern emerging Here? Home for training?
Several responses all point to specific types of training here stateside for less than a month.

Can we assume they are going right back once their training is done?

Also, sniper training must be in demand from the responses I am getting.

10. Locked.
Some of the implications of this thread run counter to DU general guidelines, especially concerning troop deployments, dates, locations and such.

Thanks for your understanding.
