It's going to be a 1097 days tour of duty for you mate. 2 days to fight the war and 3 years peacekeeping.

Hope you've bought plenty boots because the army issue ones melt in the desert heat.

Seriously, do the squaddies believe in what they will be fighting for this time Paul? I know someone who fought in Falklands and someone who fought in the last Gulf War and the differences in attitude and cynicism between them is considerable and I have heard that within the armed forces that cynicism is even greater this time round.
