Title is worded in a way that suggests it’s unusual for the army to be deployed within own country borders.

[–] circuscritic@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 hour ago

Stationed, or based, is not deployed.

You deploy to missions e.g. combat.

It is. You're not deployed when you're at home, unless there's someone actively invading your borders.
