God Bless that young man for his service! Thanks to God above for his safe return. My nephew did 2 tours there as an MP. Every time we’d hear about an IED exploding at a roadside check or an attack on a convoy we held our breath. He’s home safe now, like your son and we thank God for both of them.

As a Seasoned Citizen, USAF, Nam Vet, permit me to add my best wishes on the safe return of your son

Many don't realize that while the patriots who serve are under some pressure and exposed to danger, it is really the families left behind who are under the most stress wondering and worrying 24/7 over their loved ones, not knowing what is really going on, other than what they read or see in the media as well as the (I'm sure) cryptic and non-enlightening communications they receive (so as to not worry) from their family members who are in harms way.

Here's to all our brave warriors, regardless where they may be serving and in all branches, as it takes a team effort of combined forces to succeed and prevail.

God Bless our Military and God Bless America!!!

Our Air Force nephew returned a few months ago from Afghanistan so we know the sense of relief you are feeling.

A big “Thank you for your service” going out to your son and your family.
