Deployed!

So, I know I've been gone for a while. Bascially, I'm being deployed again. This time to Afghanistan.

For anyone who desent remember me / never knew me, I'm in the air force, and I do command and control.

Normally, I wouldent care about being deployed. In fact, I was looking forward to possibly going. Except now I'm going somewhere that the only intel I have is that its on the pakistan border (which is full of bombs, from what I hear) and that I'm not there to do my normal, job.

So now I'm in combat skills training and I think its finally hitting me that I'm going to go somewhere that people are going to want to kil me. Am I just being a big pussy? I'm not used to the whole combat scene seeing as how I've flown a chair for my career. The army is providing training but I don't feel like they're even touching the stress factor at all.

Any advice that can be provided?
 
Definitely you are not a pussy. I admire guys like you and I pray to whatever i can that you make it back home just fine. Look forward to seeing you on here again. Best of Luck to you
 
I didn't know you before, but I don't think anybody who's a bit scared of going in to a place where people are going to be shooting at them could be considered a pussy.
So what IS your new job? Combat Controller? Those are the only guys I know of who with combat training in the AF other than Security Forces and Pararescue.
Good luck with whatever you end up doing.
 
Your not being a pussy getting shot at and getting shot both suck as much cock as Paris Hilton. Just don't panic keep a level head on your shoulders and good luck.....
 
Well, from what I understand, NO ONE is used to combat, meaning no one can be comfortable there, so no, you're not being a pussy. Especially if you're realizing where you're going before you get there. You're fully awake and aware, and that's a good thing. Have they told you when you're shipping out?

Other than that, Amigo, all I can say is Thank You.
 
I would be worried if you weren't scared, but like ven said keep your head down so you can come home alive. Living is being a hero, but dying is being a martyr. Stay strong and stay vigilant.
 
Your avatar is really encouraging!

Good stuff...
 
I wish you the best of lucks! And I don't think you are a pussy, you have the guts to do something that most people wouldn't dare.



PS. I like #11 :P
 
Sorry I havent been responding. More training today. Some asshat had a negligent discharge on his rifle at the shooting range, got us all in trouble >
