    I know there are WAARNG guys deployed to Turkey and Greece, but never knew we still had Soldiers going to Kosovo... I would very much like to hear about this as well.

    There is an NG Engineer Co. (Vertical) right across the yard from me on my FOB in Afghanistan.

    We've been sending Guard units go Kosovo for at least around a decade now.

    As a 13B I don't know what you would be doing. Most likely a SECFOR mission pulling security. I know a few combat engineers that have depoyed there for route clearance/land mine removal. Not very fun to say the least. I imagine a deployment in Kosovo would be a lot like a deployment to Kuwait. Lots of sitting around on your hands.

    Cold. Drama. Drinking. Serbs. Angry locals.

    I deploy to Kosovo in a about a year. Once you go you should share your experiences. I am curious as well. Been reading up. Seems like a tame tour is inbound.

    Apparently the AD guys are also going to Kosovo. I have a friend at Ft. Benning that's deploying to Kosovo in a couple months.
