doing my year like many others, as this is obligatory service.

I'll manage to pop inn from tom e to time during the weekends.

But I'm not alowed or have the time during the weekdays as long as

I'm still going through my recrut period.

So, anyway, if you guy will miss me or not.

firstly, Norway has no troops in Iraq.

secondly, I will be staying in Norway through my service.

I have been drafted, they can't use me for anything

but protecting my home country.

I can be selected for foreign service, and then I can choose to

sign a contract and do service in Afghanistan.

there is a very little shance that I get selected.

And if I get selected, I would never sign the contract.

Congratulations. The Army sucks. No matter what country you're in, I imagine in it will one big pain in your ass from start to finish.

Depends on your job of course, but the Army system will get you. The lack of freedom, being controlled, having other people tell you what to do, the ridiculous schedule, always being on edge, never knowing what will happen, never being able to plan anything for the future...........

The military sucks. It is an extremely outdated organization and system, which is extremely frustrating. A bloated bureaucracy where nothing makes sense.

I feel sorry for you since you feel like that.

The army can be a real pain at times, but in general I'm having a

good time. but then again the norwegian military has a little different leadership

model than the american. and I hae been realy lucky with my officers.

the outdated system you are talking about is becouse it's the

only system that works in combat. you can't use modern leadership

in combat.

and thanks for all the wellwishes from all of you, it warmes my hearth.
