Yet yesterday I got a letter in the mail that they want me to go to a reserve base and update them with my information and then the person in charge I talked to on the phone said that it is a good chance they may call me back into the army again and off to war again for the third time. I just got married in August and I really don't need this now. it would be too much for both her and I.
I totally understand. My boyfriend is still in the reserves until 2010, just like you. He was in Iraq until 2006. He suffered numerous injuries there. He receives muster orders from time to time and they call him on the phone but so far he has avoided being sent back in because his injuries were that many. We'll see if that holds up until 2010. As far as that "deaf" GI goes, I am guessing his injuries weren't greater than 40% which is the "cutoff".
