Good afternoon,
I have searched this site and the internet and can't seem to find what I am looking for. I was wondering what do Marines do during "peace time?" The reason I ask is I have heard the estimated deadline for the US to leave Afghanistan is 2014. I will graduate college in the summer of 2013 and by the time I am finshed with training (enlisted or officer) and am ready for a deployment we should be exiting Afghanistan. I was just wondering what can I expect and what would a deployment be like? I know to take one step at a time but this is just out of pure curiosity of what Marine life and deployments are like during "peace time"
Any former Marines who have served during this type of time and anyone else who can help answer these questions please feel free to chime in
Thanks in advance.
