BUMP!!!!
Airborne is walking on air because his nephew Sean is home from Mosul.
Sean was our initial contact to C company of 1-5 Infantry, Stryker Brigade Combat Team (Light) at Mosul, and I am happy to report they are all back, but mindful they had one KIA, SGT Stephen Sherman, and several seriously wounded -- SSG Melo, SGT Brent Bretz, and SGT Chris Scott are the ones I know about.
Sean later was transferred to a unit training Iraqi soldiers at Mosul, but stayed in contact with his former company.
Sean also arranged a contact for us with the follow-on unit at Mosul that we just sent a box of movies to.
Now we are starting to gear up to send headlamps and MWR items requested to this replacement unit.
Stand by for news on this upcoming project.
Meanwhile we give thanks to God for the bravery and dedication of this group of heroes now home on American soil.
