Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evoloving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
I would like to ask if those who are in the NG or Reserves, if you will be deployed in-country or out of country or both this year? Don’t have to give details (when or where). I have a son in the NG and right now it concerns me with everything going on these days, he will be deployed a few times this year. What ticks me off even more is that they threw him aside because he refused the jab and now they are deploying him after only being back (because the called him back up) for about a month.
If things go crazy here in the US soon (don’t know what, but with everything going on these days), does anyone think they will likely keep NG/Reserves here in country to be deployed where ever needed?
My son is Army NG and will be deployed to Africa for a year.
