what if you are in the U.S. army?

That is an interesting question. Normally, ALL Americans must have visas to enter Brazil. However, if you are going to Brazil as a part of a US MILITARY GROUP I am unsure. You should check with your superiors. If you're not going b/c of military you can probably contact a reputable travel agent in your city & see if they can assist you in getting your trourist visa for Brazil. They'll likely need to borrow your passport for a week or two so that it can be mailed (via a special courier) to the closest Brazilian consulate. A tourist visa is good for 5 years and allows you to stay in Brazil for up to 6 months per year.
As it pertains to traveling around the globe on military duty... I can't imagine that our guys serving in Afghanistan and Iraq had to get visas!

Yes you need a visa.
You don't need a visa, however, if you're on official tour for the military. You should know this already if you're actually in the Army, and not have to ask on Yahoo Answers.

Yes. We are in the US Army, and you need a visa to go unless you have orders to go, which I doubt:)
Look up a local consulate. It could take a few weeks, so go as soon as you have your plane tickets. They need to see proof that you will return.
Have fun.

It depends on where you are from. Contact the Brazilian Embassy in your country and ask them.
