My older bro's first deployment - he cut his teeth on protecting civies from Serb death squads via airstrikes called in by his squad (platoon? - not a soldier myself). Although it's hard to get specifics unless he's been drinking at which point it's best not to ask, he got into some hand-to-hand that left him permanently traumatized.
