I took a special duty assignment (after five combat deployments) to get off the deployment pain train for a little bit and have some family time. Yesterday my old unit got on the rotator back to the AOR and today I keep thinking how much I wish I on the way with them. Anyone else ever have this experience?

There's no better unit to have served with then "that" unit! You know the one that you served in and did this, that, and everything in. I always fondly think back to my unit and respectfully pray I'll never get reassigned to it. I wouldn't want all those great memories and friends I served with to be tarnished by different leaders and mission focus. Although I feel your pain, best to archive it and let it go.

I have my moments, generally quite often, where I reminisce about the old unit and the camaraderie that comes from a cohesive unit. We will probably always miss those days.

Yes, but the unit will be fine without you (we're all replaceable) and as long as you're advancing in your career, you'll get another opportunity to 'get back in the fight'.
