How many military members actually see combat?

Have you ever been in Combat, I can tell you that Truck drivers 88M's have seen combat. How do you think the supplies get to the front lines, we have encounter they enemy just like any combat MOS. You are giving wrong information to people. Infantry/Medic/Truck Driver see Combat just like everyone else.

RP likes to push some old questions.
Bottom line: You can't promise anyone they won't see combat. You can't promise them they will, but you picked some of the jobs most likely to involve going outside the wire as your examples of folks who would supposedly stay safely on a "base."

Sorry to say this but WTF, you do know that the Navy has a Construction Battalion (Seabees) right, I would say that just about every Battalion st least on the west coast has been deployed to Iraq or Afghanistan that I can think of. I was an Equipment Operator (EO) and I was deployed twice within 3 years with the 1st and 2nd MEF, just in case you don't know what MEF is, it stands for Marine Expeditionary Force. And I'll promise you that our convoys were hit constantly and guess what we had medics with us as well as infantrymen/gunners and other support from both ground and air. So please know what rates are in the Navy and ask your counter parts, knowledge is power and the more information you can provide to a potential recruit with benefit both you and him/her. They won't feel like you are pressuring them to one specific job when they really have many options to choose from. Thank you for everything you do and yo all that supports our Country. God Bless the U.S.A.

In today's world that statement might be true, special ops are more and more taking the load of the combat, but at the beginning of the war on Iraq and Afghanistan Infantry, medics, drivers, etc saw a lot of combat.

I dodged the recruiter bullet when I was in. Good on you though. Someone has to do it. If I was a recruiter, I'd have serious reservations regarding some "tough" guy or gal who wants to go to war.
If you aren't a combat vet, I'd advise against giving advice regarding combat. Plenty of recruiters are combat vets, have them talk to one of them, or take them to a VFW. My two cents.

Well I deployed four times as a Member of the Texas National Guard Got shot at and saw friends get blown up by IEDs and I was MI so Petty Officer Croster. I think you have just been misinformed. By the way First Fire Fight I was in Our Commander was a Navy Lieutenant I was the NCOIC. One of those with the team was a young Petty officer.. This was in Baghlan Province, Nahrin District. June 2008. We were going to a Location to distribute humanitarian assistance. So you never really Know. The PRT that was with My ADT at Ghazni in 2010 was commanded by Navy. They often saw combat. Operations are often joint for a reason.

False statement. Completely false. As a 88M truck driver in Iraq I spent 9 months on convoys traveling thru not so nice Places were IEDs were the norm.

That's not even remotely close to being a true statement.

You are clearly unqualified to speak on who leaves the base and who doesn't.

You are half right and half wrong. If I were in your shoes I would simple say not everyone will deployed and all deployed personnel will not directly see combat action, but nevertheless they would contribute to the overall mission. I say very rearly does one job description excludes them from combat. Lots of OJT.
