With stop-loss, even if his or her enlistment is up during one of those deployments, I wonder if they would have to serve the full 24 months?
Yes, there was a reservist that was due to get out in a couple months and sued to keep from being shipped to Iraq, just recently. The Judge refused to isue a stay to prevent it and by the time his case comes up he'll probably be home...if he makes it.

That's a pretty optimistic estimate isn't it?
