Member of another board I frequent made this post regarding the return home of their local National Guard Unit. It was a great welcome for a great bunch of soldiers.

It was like this for the whole 5 miles off the highway. Returning soldiers from the 216th Engineer Battalion are welcomed with flags and cheers.

Thanks for posting the wonderful photos!

I love our service men and women. I keep them in my prayers and celebrate the return home of every single one. So far I have lost a cousin, a friend I served with, and a friend from my home town to this war. My daughter was also seriously wounded.

I would volunteer to serve again, but my body is too old and to broken.

The young kid, Specialist Couch, I am sure some mama and dad and maybe even a young wife are supremely proud of him.
Hooah!

I'm so sorry for your loss of your friends and cousin. Thank you for your service, also. I'll pray for your daughter's fast and full recovery.
