    Does the Military use Khaki, or Tan at all?

    what's life like as an army 35F?

    long, long, long hours on deployment - expect to be awake 24+ at a stretch getting PP slides and intel briefs finished, sleeping 6 hours, and getting back to it. When not on deployment, its pretty chill. You'll be in a pretty small section as long as you're at Brigade or Battalion level, so...
