[QUOTE='Powerstroke7.3]Yeah but my tours were longer than 60 days. [/QUOTE]
The shortest tours that reservists do are 12 months, reason being that the gov't isn't going to go through the trouble to activate you for for only a short time, they want to get as much time out of you as possible. We have an active duty bn. in my group(psyop) that only goes on deployment for 3-6 months at a time. I don't know of anyone who has deployed for 60 days that was a reservist, all the ones I know of are senior NCO's or Officers on active duty. Also, up until a year ago Congress would only allow reservist to be on active duty for 12 months out of every 24, but that has changed, hence all the reservist you see with 2, 3 or even 4 years of active duty in a combat zone. I even know a couple who did 24 months straight without even coming home:bow: ......So now a days the reserves isn't reserve anymore. So regardless of the active/reserve argument, Thanks to everyone that serves.
