they are yanking the passes of those that are on the 6 month rotation, like marines for example. i was there for a year with my division and some were going to be there 18 months. they are keeping guys and gals there so the other units can refit. i know for a fact that ill be there again soon. i just got home a month ago and we are running all equipment through Depot level maintenance, and practicing live fire exercises every week. in other words we are gearing up to go somewhere soon. the whole problem started with the rumsfield plan (10 division army). we are spread out so far (korea, japan, bosnia, kosovo, macedonia) so in other words we are fighting wars for a 12-15 division army with a 10 division army.
