That is the merit of volunteering.  If you ou can pick your path, you
increase your chances of staying away from the front lines.  I worked with a
guy that joined the Navy and never set foot on a boat, let alone spend months
on a cruise.  he intentionally chose fuel transport, which alowed him to be
sent to a joint Navy/ Marine base in Yuma, Arizona.  The closest thing to a
sea out there was the dune sea where the sarlacc pit is in Return of the
Jedi was filmed.
