The oldest was notified several months ago that his unit was official notified they would be going to Afghanistan this fall. He is an 11 Bravo so he will be in the thick of it.
The youngest is Army Reserve and just completed his 3-week annual training. Before returning home from his AT, a CWO and several NCOs were heard to be discussing the possibility [aka RUMOR] that their unit would be deploying to Afghanistan after the first of the year. He is an ammo specialist so he will be stuck in an ASP.
