As an Army reservist, how difficult is it to attach yourself to another deployable unit that is mobilizing to go to Iraq? I really want to go, but then come back and finish school after a year.

I'm sure if you talk to your chain of command and tell them you want to go over there, they can hook you up. I know the Army needs all the help they can get in Iraq. But as far as only going for a year and calling it quits you may be out of luck. Many reservists are serving extended tours or getting rotated back to Iraq quicker than they should. Throw some questions to the right people in your unit and get some good facts before you make a decision. If you do go, stay safe, good luck and thank you!!
