The family receives phone calls from President Bush about Matt, I am sure he keeps them up to date.
Matt is in the same unit as my son. My son came home on Thanksgiving day last year, Matt didn't. That's one reason my tag line will stay the same until Matt comes home.
Here's my son Steve. (F.R. member "smaagee")

Thanks for the info about your son! And please, thank him for me.
