It depends on the theatre, but most of them get some personal time. Depending on what you do it is usually something like 10 days on 2 days off.
The longest I worked was 35 days straight. But it was not in combat operations.

My husband is a mechanic in Iraq right now and doesn't get days off he is on call every day so anytime something comes in hes there helping. He has been on 5 day missions and come back to work the next day it may be different for other jobs in the military but not for my husband

Usually they will fight every day, but when they get time off it's for like a month.

When we first got to iraq, we did 89 straight days of 12-15 hour days, i cant lie, it sucked. My first day off was christmas day, than we went back to like 40 straight before i had another day off. Days off were definitely few and far between.

They get time off but often not for days at a time and the worry is always there that there will be some kind of attack.

i assume to get the whole u might could devide the whole deaths by using the style of days at conflict. so 4,278 deaths over 2227 days at conflict is a million.9 deaths in step with day so approximately 2 deaths an afternoon 701.3 in step with 365 days and fifty 8.4 deaths in step with month

Never a day off in a war zone, you might have down time, but no official day off.
