I just submitted my application to CF and am hoping to become a Field Gunner but am worried that by the time I'm trained enough to be deployed Canada with not be in Afghanistan. I'm looking into joining to make a difference in the world and would like to be deployed. What are the chances of a field gunner being deployed in a Bosnia or Kosovo like peacekeeping situation?
Oh and I can't join the infantry. It took me 5 years to convince my wife to let me join the Army and move to Canada so I can't push her to let me join infantry. Actually it took 4.5 years to convince her to let join the Canadian Air Force, I then asked if I could join the Army instead because that's what I really wanted to do. I'm thankful she is willing to support me and move our family knowing I will be deployed at some point and she will not be in the US and away from her family.
Please any Field Gunners that could answer if they are deployed on peacekeeping missions or is it only straight combat missions like Afghanistan?
