Perhaps before you tell people to STFU you should improve your reading skills. I read the entire article and nowhere do I find the Sgt. bitching. The writer is a pain in the rear but the Sgt. is ready to go again and wants to stay in.

My good friend, my reading skills are quite fine. Thank-you. This was a military hit piece and she was complicit in it. The whole jest of the story was the military is bad for taking single parents away from their kids. If there is any culpability in this situation, it lies with the sergeant, not with the military. Nobody forced her to join the military.
I understand her missing her children. I have had long deployments too and have missed mine. Nonetheless, I knew what I was in for when I signed my name on the dotted line. I was not out whining to some reporter about having to be away from my kids. Nor was I blaming my deployment on "God". I was going because I agreed to do so.
