The National Guard unit I transferred to will be deploying sometime next month for an 18 month rotation in Iraq.Now, I have heard that in the National Guard, if you've been deployed in the last two years, in order for you to deploy again, you have to sign a waiver, requesting to go on the deployment.he National Guard unit I transferred to will be deploying sometime next month for an 18 month rotation in Iraq.

In Iraq and Afghanistan, there was one death for every 378 service members who deployed. In Vietnam, the figure was one death for every 58 who deployed, and in both World War I and World War II it was around one per 40. During the Civil War it was one per 5. That of course meant that many more Americans would know someone who died.
