I
ve been looking into that again, I almost did it when teh war started right after 9/11 but I couldn't leave teh country for that long at the time. Pay was insane at that time. Gone down ALOT since then but still way up.

What company you go over for?

Didn't Go as a civilian, I am in the army as a firefighter, mos: 12M. The plan is to go back over once i get out of the army next year. The civilian guys that replaced us at COS Garryowen were with Sallyport. and last i knew they were on a 3/1 rotation. 3 months over, 1 month home.
