Welcome home, hero! If I read correctly, you'll miss Thanksgiving dinner with your family. Take comfort. The leftovers are always better!
Prayers for the safety of Matt and ALL of our heros.

He certainly does not look emaciated Is that any way to talk about a war vet? Sure I may have added a few pounds over here, but I would like to see yuo dad go for a jog when you dont know where the next mortar round will fall. Not to mention that my job involved hauling fuel for 10-15 hours at a stretch. Not much room for exercise. Besides, in the immortal words of Eric Cartman "I'm not fat, I'm big boned.". Just kidding you guys. THe gut is gone when I get home. See ya soon.

I swear, it is now necessary to be extremely good looking to be in the military. Please know how grateful we are to you and to all who serve. I'm so glad you are going to get to spend the holiday with loved ones BACK IN THE US OF A.

I didn't realize how heavily emotionally invested I was in these guys until I saw your photos. I'm so happy for your family!
In the #2 photo, it looks like Paulie is saying, "No, HERE'S the real star!"

Kudos for you blessing. Matt Maupin is from our area, and I don't hold out much hope if he didn't turn up in Fallujah. Stil, prayers. There was a report a few months ago of a film of him being murdered by the terrorists but as far as I know it was not confirmed.
To: Graybeard58; smaagee; HairOfTheDog
Wow, how absolutely wonderful! Please give your hero son an extra big hug from thousands of us here at FR!
smaagee: We can't thank you enough for your courage and service to our great country. Welcome home, FRiend! :-)
Fantastic photos of you with "Tony" and "Paulie Walnuts", btw!
