Maybe it is different for the AF, but believe me - the fighter guys are gone a lot too. During my fleet tours - I was gone for approximately 12 out of 18 months, and those long days get longer when on deployment because there is little else to do but work (and workout)
Fighters being a drag to fly
I never thought of it that way - but to each their own I guess.
