When I was young doc with young kids on AD, I really didn't want to go to Germany. Extended family, etc etc.
Now, as an old reservist? I would trade an adult kid to do 90 days in Germany (post COVID), lol.
Back in the day, Germany was very competitive among a small group that really really wanted to be there vs the larger group that really didn't want to be anywhere overseas. Tripler was kinda like that too.
Now? No idea. Heck, I was amazed when I recently discovered that 03s and 04s can now get Colorado Springs right out of residency! That used to ba a favorite career camping spot for senior 05s and 06s.
