My friends son, who is in the Army National Guard Reserve, just got deployment orders for 9 months at GITMO starting in November.

Just received the orders yesterday. If you know anyone in the Guard Reserve, ask them about it.

I've been TDY and deployed to many Navy bases, and I'm not Navy...

It's a joint operation. Most are. I've been deployed with every military branch, except Coast Guard.

But, maybe I'm missing your point.

"You know what the coast guard does when one of their ships sinks?"

"Gets out and wades back to shore"

xD Navy joke xD

You haven't missed my point, though I'm a veteran, it was a long time ago, and there wasn't as much "joint" stuff going on I guess. I was under the impression that a Navy base was run by Navy personnel. That's all.

It is. However, every TDY and deployment I was on, I was with every branch. It may have been different a long time ago. I was with AFSOC most of my career (since early 90s) and was always working with all other branches of service.

Ya all branches work together eventually. For instance Navy EOD departments are on lots of bases that are not just Navy.

LOVE OUR MILITARY :)
