I think everyone who has ever deployed can relate to the scarcity of females and how guys will fight over women they wouldn't look at twice were they still stateside.

Yeah. We had like 300 women on the ship. Before Westpac we would make a list of who we would do and compare them. Just before pac everyone would have 6 or 7 tops. By the end of pac their were only 6 or 7 not on the list. I'm sure the lady's did the same thing.

This should absolutely be a series. Especially when you have these females that would be like a 5 through the bottom of a shotglass become 10s on deployment. Then you get that one that's a fucking actual 10... DO IT!!!!

Actual 10? Lies!!!

The original catch 22 movie has a pretty good scene addressing your theme.

That desert heat has me seeing a mirage. Sgt Limon used to be a 4 back stateside, but a couple of months in Iraq, and she is now a 7or 8? You know that mustache is not too bad, makes her look, I don't know, distinguished. And I bet it tickles when it touches mine. Return stateside and it's clear to see the heat has worn off but that 7 has bumped all the way down to a 3 again. What was I thinking? Another "Deserts Beauty" whose flower has bloomed and died. Until the next deployment.
