This is what we signed up for.

When it comes to a deployment, there's always someone that says "Oh, i wish you didn't have to go.", and this bugs me. Why? Because this is what the soldiers signed up for. They knew that if they joined the military that they would very likely get deployed. Some of them joined because all they wanted to do was get deployed and go fight for our freedom. Yes, it is hard to go without that person for that long of time... but at least they are gone for a good reason.
