Post by: TOMCAT21 on November 24, 2010, 08:18:05 AM: Selino, I went there in July/August of 2008 when I was with 1SBCT25ID. It was over 100 almost the entire rotation. It was lame, having been to Iraq before NTC really did not teach me anything. The only thing I got out of it was a snapshot of what we " might " be able to do and rehearse battle drills, etc. It is like anything else, you get out what you put in. :salute
