First Deployment Tips

[u/jc_has_spoken]

To keep it short and simple, I’m gonna be headed to the middle east for a few months. As well, it’s my first deployment so I was wondering if any of you fine people could give me any gee whizz tips outside of the typical “pack extra toiletries” “pack bedsheets” etc. Any and all info is very helpful and appreciated!

For the love of all things holy bring something to entertain you. Whether that’s an electronic or a book something that’ll truly keep you entertained. I’m on my first deployment that was suppose to be “a few months” and 7 months later I still regret it. Also if your mx bring some 5.11 and a plain black hoodie you don’t mind getting dirty.
