Foxholes (a.k.a. Cancer, June 22 – July 22): You should be in top Hoo-rah! condition this month, physically and mentally.  Your natural leadership ability should be sharp, but you may get that deer in the headlights look a lot, especially until July 10th.  To avoid any snafus, make sure that any orders or directions you give (or receive) are crystal clear.  Have subordinates repeat it back and do the same for your superiors.  This may make you feel like an idiot, but I don't need to tell you how important it is to have it exactly right.  Make sure that you're not overly aggressive with your fellow troops this month; direct it toward the OPFOR. 

Carbines (a.k.a. Leo, July 23 – August 23):  This month you'll probably be able to get away with just about anything with your buddies, so if you need a loan or favor, now's a good time.  However, disagreements or confrontations are possible with your superior officers, so don't push your luck there.  Use your brains when you present your opinion and avoid name-calling because it's likely to get back and bite you in the ass.  Learn from any mistakes and store them for later.

Drill Sergeants (a.k.a. Virgo, August 24 – September 22): Comradery will be strong this month, even if everyone seems dumb as a rock until after the 10th.  If the prevailing stupidity around you has been driving you nuts, you can expect things to get better after that. There's a possibility for a new assignment or even a transfer.  If you haven't seen any action for a while, there's a good chance there'll be some soon, so be prepared. 

Tracers (a.k.a. Libra, September 23 – October 23): You may think your CO or other superior has a recto-cranial inversion this month, but you and your buddies should be tight.  If you want to make a point, be respectful and make sure you have all your ducks in a row or risk looking like an idiot.  Your world has changed a lot since a year ago.  Don't let these mental rumblings distract you from your duty; keep your situational awareness high.

Submarines (a.k.a. Scorpio, October 24 – November 22): You'll be more inclined than usual to act like an asshole this month, so watch it if you don't want to find someone's fist up your nose.  Especially don't mess with your superiors because it's a sure bet it will bite you in the ass.  Just a heads-up that things are looking good for a promotion or recognition of some kind, so STFU or it could turn it into another one of your famous FUBARs.  A transfer or shipping out is also possible.

Howitzers (a.k.a. Sagittarius, November 23 – December 21): You're probably rethinking a few things this month, perhaps related to how you feel about being so far from home.  Keep your situational awareness high and don't be an idiot and take any unnecessary chances, unless it's downright cowardly to do nothing.  In other words, don't volunteer.  If you're deployed overseas, this is a good month for getting along with the locals.

M16s (a.k.a. Capricorn, December 22 – January 20): You'll be brimming with good ideas this month, particularly if you're developing tactics.  Getting along with your immediate superiors or fellow troops will be important this month, so don't mess it up.  Make sure you say exactly what you mean and understand others to avoid any FUBARs.  Keep your eye on the newbies this month; one of them could become a good friend. 

Buddies (a.k.a. Aquarius, January 21 – February 18):  Your bunk or foxhole mates might be making you crazy this month.  Most likely you're going to be there for a while, so don't act like a total asshole or you'll live to regret it.  A new assignment or transfer is possible.  There's also a possibility you'll run into someone of the opposite sex that you'll find really hot, so keep your eyes open and deodorant close by.  Personal recognition is likely toward the end of the month.

Torpedoes (a.k.a. Pisces, February 19 – March 20):  Your mind is running at 900 Hz this month.  Changes to your love life are possible, one way or the other.  Or maybe you've just been away for too long.  Think outside the box if you're looking to solve vexing problems or situations.  Comradery is likely to be strong with a possible increase in your duties. 

Grenades (a.k.a. Aries, March 21 – April 20): That extra dose of aggression you had last month has died down, which may or may not be a good thing.  More than likely you were accused of being an asshole more than once, but what else is new?  Keep your weapons and anything else you're really counting on in good repair since breakdowns and malfunctions are a real possibility until after July 10.  Hearing from home more than usual is likely.  A new love interest (a.k.a. getting laid) is possible as well. 

Tanks (a.k.a. Taurus, April 21 – May 21): Now it's your turn to be an aggressive SOB.  Just make sure you direct it toward the OPFOR and not your fellow troops.  Your brain will be running at 900 Hz  with a new assignment possible.  You may miss home more than usual, particularly its comforts and especially if you're deployed.  Create yourself a little microcosm of what you miss, even if it's no more than keeping some pictures close at hand.  Pix of family are terrific, but have someone send you a picture of your favorite fishing hole or camping spot as well.

F-16 Fighting Falcons (a.k.a. Gemini, May 22 – June 21): Take care of your belongings this month; a possible breakdown or malfunction is possible before the 10th.  Your thoughts are cranking these days and probably focused on your duty assignments.  If you're deployed, you're likely to reach a new level of understanding of the locals that could affect you at a deep level.
