Can't speak for the Navy Reserves but if you joined the Army Reserves (or the National Guard), you could bet your stripes that you would deploy within 12 to 18 months. The total number of people who have not deployed is shrinking so it's only fair to move those guys/gals to the front of the list. I've been in the Army (active and reserves) for over 23 years and although I had my fair share of bad days, I'm glad I stayed with it.
I'm currently in Afghanistan and I'm surprised how many Navy personnel I've seen at the various bases. I think a majority of them are working with the SeaBees but I have a few in my office as well. I even got a coin from a Navy Rear Admiral this week so I'm waving the Navy flag (well, just for a few more days).
Bottom Line: Sign up and if you don't like it, bail out after you've finished your enlistment.
