Operational Tours

Post by agapito »

Ok, I've done some research on operational tours to Iraq, Afghanistan and so forth ... and I've found that after a 6-7 months tour you'll have roughly about 18 months before your next tour, the reason for this post is to see if my findings are right.

There are no guarantees, it all depends on when they need you. You may be lucky, you may not.

P.S. Don't worry I've sorted your spelling and capitalisation for you.

About operational tours, regiments have for example a year on and a year off e.g. the Mercian regiment they do 6-7 months for this year, have a year off then repeat.
