i just want to know around how many hours am i going to work>? how many days? how long is the training? and what are the chances of me going to war in iraq or somewhere over there?
Like all Guardsmen and reservist you will be required to complete initial entry training (Basic and AIT) which will last generally 14-20 weeks (or more for some MOSs). After that you you will be required to conduct training (Drills) 1 weekend a month and 2 weeks of Annual Training (AT) per year for 6 years (followed by 2 years in the IRR with no drill commitment for a total of 8 years).
The rest of the time you hold a job or go to college like every other civilian.
Your chances of getting deployed AT LEAST once in the 8 years is almost 100%.
