I have the option to go to Israel for a few months on a mission. Does anyone have any experience what it was like? Will I get a deployment patch? Any information you can give would be appreciated.

yeah, I spent a few months in Israel on mission. No, there's no patch, nice try ;o) But it's a BEAUTIFUL country, and I had a phenomenal time. I highly recommend you take the opportunity if offered.

SFC Michael Hasbun - the nice way is saying one was deployed to a Voluntold Host Nation (like Afghanistan/Iraq). Israel is a voluntary host nation. Like going to Germany or the UK.

SFC Michael Hasbun - Yes, but Iraq didn't volunteer to be a Host Nation. Going to Israel is going to a nation that volunteered to be a host nation. Sorry, stupid joke.
Like if I was president, I would say something stupid like thanking the Nation of North Korea for being a Host Nation for our troops. The planes arrive in T-minus 10,9,8,7,6........

Why would you think you get a "deployment patch" for a non-Combat zone? What's next, people asking if they get one for Korea?
