According to Stars & Stripes, the Army is planning a busy Spring as far as deployments of continental US-based units are concerned;
This spring, soldiers from Fort Drum, N.Y. will travel to Iraq, soldiers from Fort Campbell, Kentucky will deploy to Afghanistan and soldiers from Fort Stewart, Georgia will be sent to South Korea, the Army announced. Soldiers from Fort Hood in Texas will deploy in the summer to Europe.
The article goes on to explain that these are deployments to replace other units.
Most notably, when Fort Stewart’s 3rd Infantry Division sends troops to Korea to replace 1st Cavalry Division units, it will be the first time since 1953 that Marne Men have been on the peninsula.
GREEN CORVETTE!

Being as I’m just a retarded (and retired) Air Force guy (Even though I worked Green Ramp with 3rd MAPS more than a few times) I had to google this.

Mark your calendars now as I’m calling it.
Li’l Kim NDtBF will self murder within a week of the 3rd ID’s arrival in country./s
One can only stand hearing “The Dog-Faced Soldier” being blasted over the DMZ by loudspeakers 24/7 for about that long.
Yeah, I almost self-murdered after listening to Dog-Face Soldier for seven years.
How can you not like lines like “I’m just a dog-faced soldier, with a rifle on my shoulder; I eat raw meat for breakfast every day! So feed me ammunition, keep me in the 3rd Division; your dog-faced soldier’s A-OK!” I sang that song many times myself with 7 years in 3ID.
Lil Kim won’t be very happy to hear :

For deterrence to work, we have to show -some- strong cards.
Join the Army, visit exotic lands, meet unique people, kill them and break their things.
Not that there’s anything wrong with that. I joined the Navy to see the world; turns out it’s 75% ocean. And I saw a lot of it.
*grin*
“I joined to see the world!”
“Look down, stupid.”
Speaking of Ft Drum, any word on our favorite Marxist?
