QUESTION: u.s. military multiple deployment statistics

question / pregunta: 

from an email, identifying info snipped for privacy:

> Hey yall. This is R, who attended a few of your workshops in Detroit. I am doing research and attempting to compound some numbers. I am having a hard time finding a citable statistics explaining percentages of raw numbers of U.S. troops deployed currently and over the course of the Iraq and Afghan wars. Specifically, we want to know how many were and are deployed multiple times, and if so, how many times/what percentage served how many tours. I could only find info from 2005 here: http://usmilitary.about.com/od/terrorism/a/deploymentrates.htm

> The info is integral to a campaign we are working on!

> Any ideas?

> Thanks, peace,

QUESTION: where are arms/military supplies researched and manufactured in the U.S.

question / pregunta: 

We are looking for sites (locations and names) of places where arms and military supplies are researched and manufactured in the United States. The idea would be to end up with a map of "the economy of death" or "the war in your hometown" and would lay out how the economy is dependent on the war machine.

For example, entries could be Boeing HQ and/or a plant that manufactures tires for airplanes or the location of a security detail subcontractor, or something like that. We wouldn't necessarily need to be comprehensive, but could cover a selection of sites from every state in the country.
