Finally get to deploy.....!

[Schugg]

I get to deploy in about a week or 2, i remember almost 2 years ago posting on here that i was joining the airforce/leaving georgia, and now im finally getting to deploy/leave texas. kinda surprised that its been so long but i guess it has, kinda weird, along with the fact that i still post here all the time. i dont see any chances of this but any of the other enlisted people here deploying anywhere? im actually going to qatar (not much of a deployment more of a TDY), so its not going to be bad at all, still have internet access in some places and a trailer to stay in, and plenty to do compared to other places. dont really care to hear about how qatar is where everyone else comes for R&R.....i already know, and particularly dont care, but im sure i will still hear it! but if anyone else is deploying or going to be around there let me know, ill be there 6 months. be kinda cool to see someone from here while over there.

Good luck, and thank you for serving!

You'll have a trailer to stay in? Like your own place or something? Later, QD.

You say you're deploying in a week or two. Then you say you'll be there in six months. It takes six months to get to Qatar? You guys hiking there or something? Later, QD.

He said he'll be there 6 months, not there IN 6 months. lol


Anyways, to the OP, thank you for serving.

I know Just_Chill is deploying SOON, also. Not sure where to, though.

the base has been there a while and they have alot stuff built up there. nco's actually get to stay in dorm kinda buildings, and airmen get the trailers. its a really big trailer type thing broke down into rooms, tiny rooms though.....ontop of that, on base there is a pool, pizza hut, dairy queen, and BX (airforce version of a small walmart i guess?), and all kinds of stuff. thats probably why i would call it a tdy, over deployment, only thing making it a deployment is its in the middle of the desert.

p.s. i liked the edit too!

haha, i dont think i could pull that one off....you would have to get to know some bomber pilots, ive heard they carry some "unauthorized" items with them in the plane sometimes.


and everyone else thanks for thanking me! and your welcome

[redrumracer]

i guess congrats, you seem a lil up beat about it. what do you do in the Air Force?

[jumpin800agl]

I would be upbeat also if I was going to Qatar. Easy tax free money with little to no danger involved. I am hoping to get another Afghan or Iraq deployment in the next year or so. Have fun over there. I have seen some pics from friends that got to go there while we were in Iraq, they had alot of fun.

hell yeah im happy, i got bills to pay! only thing that could make me happier is my wife moving home, so she could live for free, and i can make an extra grand a month from housing allowance that i wouldnt have to spend. im a 2W151L, which is armament, most of the job is people who work on the flight line and load the bomb on the aircraft but im backshop (another great thing making my easy deployment even better), so i work in a shop and inspect/clean/tear apart/rebuild/repair all the bomb modules which hold the bomb ejector racks, and each rack holds a bomb. then i work on the rotary launchers which holds bigger ejector racks, and each of those gets a bombs

i already dont pay taxes...so i really didnt care about that. texas has no state taxes, and i claim 4 independs (me, wife, 2 kids) on mypay so it doesnt deduct any federal taxes. most danger i will get into in qatar is probably the stupid things we will do when we get bored. im going to try and go TCN some time after this so i can go somewhere else other than qatar. i was put on the tcn list but they forgot i was deploying and took me off. i would have got to goto ali air base, think its in afghan. dont know, either way i heard its like the worst place to TCN. usually we goto balhad(sp?) though.

[Schugg]

This place isn't bad at all. If I wasn't married I would try to get a six month extension on top of my six months here already. They had 4 of us packed in a 10x10 room for the first night but they got it down to two of us. Some captain gave me a tv which was cool. Can't legally have porn which is lame (can't say I don't though), but at 2am there some Russian lingerie show and they are topless! Then I got a haircut and it was kinda awkward, they massage and do this weird stuff on you head and neck when there done.

[Schugg]

shit that was one long ass boring deployment.....was worth getting alot of stuff payed off, but i could have got a second job to do that. i could really care less about deploying again unless it was something with some sort of action. i would have rather have been somewhere else with a weapon doing something considered somewhat dangerous. only danger i was in at qatar was maybe a possible sprained ankle trying to run and catch the bus to work!

[Stormhammer]

LOL

gievs me a lot to look forward too ( I'm enlisting into the AF and either going UAV or trying for SpecOps )

[nismo_92]

[BKgen®]

Godspeed and thanks for serving, bro.

Then why did you join the Air Force? Lol, just fucking with you man. I go to Afghanistan in January but i leave for Hawaii this Friday until then.

[ultm8mind]

I go to Iraq in a couple months, just got back from Cali at the National Training Center for a month of training. But yeah, our unit is going south of Baghdad. I am getting deployed!! Wish I was skating somewhere like Qatar or Balad, and doing six months, LOL. I'll be there at least a year, and "in the shit." But hey, that's what us Army guys get paid for.......

[One_Bad_SHO]

I take the asvab for the Army National Guard tomorrow.

yeah, i met a few transit people coming through qatar that did some real deployments. got a ride from some navy guy that was doing 18 months and that was his last day, haha he was pretty excited driving all crazy. i know i had it easy there, just rather go do something sometimes, probably why i have more respect for the army and marines. thought of changing services but thats not going to happen unless i get un married with no kids

good luck bro

haha thanks, im back, just updating an old post

Then why did you join the Air Force? Lol, just fucking with you man. I go to Afghanistan in January but i leave for Hawaii this Friday until then.

haha not to sure, but i found a way to even out the lack of action. figured if i cant shoot bad people for the air force, ill just get my CHL and legally shoot bad people on my own here. but have fun in hawaii, good luck on ur real deployment!

Cool man, congrats, I got a 137. 35P is good stuff, Intel treats their people right. I was MI my last MOS when I was Enlisted. It'll take a little bit more to be a Warrant.....ask me how I know. Well, that's because I am one, lol....

ive met a few intel people, they are pretty cool, right now im trying to figure out if i want to cross train to osi. cause at this point if i dont stay in there is next to nothing i can do with experience i got from my job. if i do osi and decide to get out that will help alittle with me doing something ide like more which would be fbi or secret service.
