I think something to avoid 4-6 deployments for a single Soldier. Tue, 03 Feb 2015 17:35:29 -0500 Should we reinstate the draft?

We must learn from mistakes and a draft will cause the military to revert toward more troubled times. Yes deployments suck but as people say no one held a gun to you head when you swore your oath. Do I think we need to supplement the force yes through the use of the Guard, Reserve, and the inactive reserve. I do not know the numbers of IRR service members but I am sure they could augment the force. SGT Jim Z. Tue, 03 Feb 2015 17:39:43 -0500 2015-02-03T17:39:43-05:00 2015-02-03T17:35:29-05:00
