Actually, this is his second go 'round in Iraq. But, as I am sure you know, first or last deployment, coming home is always sweet!!

Please tell your son I said

"Thank You for your service to our country."

Let him know that countless Americans are proud of him and are grateful for all he has done. Then tell him to be sure and pass it on because no Marine can hear it too often.

Calling All Hands.

Come join SAMS in welcoming her son home.

I think this calls for a cyber party, don't you? Come one......Come all. Let’s show SAMS, her son, and the family how much we appreciate their sacrifice.

LET'S PAR-TAY................

We’ve got music…….

The Boys are Back by Thin Lizzy

We’ve got dancers……..

We’ve got amusement……

We’ve got food……

We even have our very own Pizza Chef. So we’ll never run out. Dig in.

And, we’ve got drink…..

You know the drill……….. at a cyber party you're only allowed 2. We don't encourage drinking and FReeping. You know what they say, FRiends don't let FRiends drink and FReep.

Thank you for your service. And a little fairy “love dust” for your safe keeping.

Morehead City, NC ... Marines from Camp Lejeune have been using this port facility for many years. Embarked on deployments and returned to Morehead City several times while part of Fleet Marine Force (FMF) Atlantic, Camp Lejeune, NC.
