The reason I ask this is:
I am trying to make a Strong female character and I am trying to work out her military career. I wanted to have her Join the USMC in 1993 and go to the Balkans but as a non combat MOS.
Her Next step is to complete her 4 years in the service. So she would get out in 1997 then have to work as a female bouncer in the L.A. club scene from 1997- 1999 or 2000 then either she re-enlists in the Corps or she gets drafted and sent to yugoslavia as a replacement. (particulary because she has prior military service)
I am hoping her second time in she is Infantry though....Infact I really want her to be a Machine gunner but I don't want that to be her official position in the sqaud just a position she assumes. I plan to have her end up in a mixed branch of services unit. Mostly army but maybe even a civillian or two.
Anyway what are your thoughts especially about Yugoslavia.
