Yes we can. Here we know only herpes simplex, causes by herpes simplex virus type 1 and 2 that cause herpes genital. It's a very popular std.

But actually, herpes in medical terms goes to many variant. It's possible that you got herpes zooster, that cause varicella (chicken pox) and shingles. Doctor use to explained them as "Herpes" too. And it's not std.

Here the site. Check it yourself could give you more information.

There are two types of herpes simplex virus: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Both virus types can cause sores around the mouth (herpes labialis) and on the genitals (genital herpes). Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV).
Cold sores sometimes called fever blisters, are groups of small blisters on the lip and around the mouth. The skin around the blisters is often red, swollen, and sore. The blisters may break open, leak a clear fluid, and then scab over after a few days. They usually heal in several days to 2 weeks.
The herpes simplex virus usually enters the body through a break in the skin around or inside the mouth. It is usually spread when a person touches a cold sore or touches infected fluid—such as from sharing eating utensils or razors, kissing an infected person, or touching that person's saliva. A parent who has a cold sore often spreads the infection to his or her child in this way. Cold sores can also be spread to other areas of the body.

Yes, you can. It would mean you have what is called herpes gladiatorum.

Herpes types 1 and 2 more usually cause genital herpes and oral herpes, but it is possible to get herpes on your body - wrestlers for example can get herpes gladiatorum - on their body.

They get this because while wrestling they are in close physical contact with others. If in the course of wrestling some skin on their body is cut or abraded, and someone they are wrestling with has an active herpes infection (for example cold sores on their lips) which comes into contact with the abraded skin, or their wrestling partner has touched a cold sore and then touched the abraded skin, they can get herpes on their body as it will enter through the body skin and flare up in that area.

It is common in wrestlers because they have close physical contact while training. If in your training in the army you have come into close physical contact with others and have even had a tiny scratch on your arm the virus could enter through, you could have caught it.

If you have an infection on your arm, like oral herpes it is not an std, and was not sexually transmitted, so it has nothing to do with whether you are a virgin or not. You more likely got it from coming into contact with someone else with herpes gladiatorum or from someone with oral herpes, not from someone with genital herpes.

When the word herpes is used people instantly think genital, but this is not the case. Most herpes infections are on other parts of the body, mostly the mouth.
