You can get deployed.
Many years ago I met with a friend from highschool who was enlisting ten years after I had. He said his job didnt deploy. I informed him he was wrong, he was adamant that there was no reason for his jib to be overseas, we argued but ultimately I let it go. A year later he sent me an email from Iraq.
Bottom line: Any job you do, it is either cheaper, or simply more efficient to have you near the people you are supporting. This may lead to a warzone, or it could lead to a tropical island, Ive had both, but more often its the warzone.
