How many military tours to Irak are allowed?

j@mE$

Sounds right, I spent 3 years in the sandbox.

tony c

there is no limit, usually a year, go home for a year and then be sent back...possibly

They can be held over and I believe they are. I know people with multiple tours over there. I don't know the limit.

There is no such place as Irak!

You really ought to be able to spell the name of the country we have been occupying for the past 3 years!
But to answer your question, it is entirely possible that his tour was extended for another six months.

First off, its Iraq. Thats I-R-A-Q. I cant believe there are people in this country that are so stupid that they cant spell the country we're at war with [or occupying, whatever], especially when its a whopping 4 letters.

Second, he's your EX-HUSBAND. Maybe he and his NEW WIFE dont want you bothering him. You're probably ex's for a reason.

Get a life.

Maybe you should hop on a plane and go over there to find him. I hear Mosul is nice this time of year.

The army will only an 18 month tour. Anything over that is against regulations.

You call that CHANGE?

Theres such a thing as extended deployment, yes!

And its IraQ..........

The usual tour of duty in Iraq (NOT IRAK) is 7-14 months for the Marine Corps, and 2 years for the army.

Learn how to spell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The mission always comes first and if the military needs him there, that's where he is gonna be. That being said, it is rare that the military keep soldiers in Iraq for over a year straight. It is just too stressful on the soldiers and I think the military has to pay them loads of extra per diem (prob. depends on branch too) for everyday over a year they are there.

If you are trying to track down your ex for a legit. reason, start by calling the unit he is in or the base where he is stationed from.

uhm guys.. it's spelled with a K in countries other than the US. In fact, that IS the proper spelling of it, as it's how THEY themselves spell it once you've transated the Persian/Farsi alphabet.

But yes, deployments to the sandbox can indeed be upwards of 18-24 months at a time. Also, some people may only spend a month or two in the states before going back(this happened to my Army Medic cousin) between year long deployments.

You can theoretically stay in a warzone as long as you want.

My son is in the Marines and they are deploying to Iraq every 7 months in rotation and my brother -n- law is in the Army and he is doing a 18 month tour over there.
