"We need to stay the course here in Iraq, and continue until they can finish, and take care of it themselves. I DO NOT WANT any other soldier in the distant future to have to come back because we left to early, or this will be for nothing. I hope and pray that Murtha and his cronies will listen to the cries of the dead heroes and all American men and women who have died freeing the people of Iraq, and allowing them freedom."

Here it is... Greg's last letter home from Iraq!!! He IS coming home!

Included is the story of how he got wounded in the IED explosion and its aftermath.

Welcome home, soldier. Lay your gun down and have a rest. You deserve it.

Ah good, another one home safe. With any luck, we'll be seeing more and more of these stories in the coming year.

God bless them all.

I put in 27 years, and I never heard of the Golden Spurs. I am glad, though, to welcome Greg to the brotherhood of the CIB.

Words. What words does one apply to those such as this. Perhaps, the only way of saluting them is to say they serve with uncommon valor. And they serve with HONOR. May the good Lord bring these soldiers home shortly, back to our blessed shores, whole in body and in spirit.

Murtha should warm up his throwing arm and take whatever "medals" he managed to obtain through his military career and take A KERRY type pitch (although any thing resembling a manly motion) and cast his fate. Now back up your foolish words with liberal actions.........
