A tearful Sgt. Micheal Lopez gets a hug from his daughter Alexis, 7, as he reaches out for his son Nicolas, 21 months old, while his wife Lizette lovingly looks on at Barnes Field House on Thursday night. Lopez and his comrades with the 69th Signal Company returned to Fort Huachuca after being in Iraq for a year.

Great story. Now all they have to deal with is the massive flow of illegal aliens across the Fort. That Fort butts up on the Mexican border and it is famous for being a transit point for illegal aliens. Nothing better illustrates our lack of political will in securing our borders than the failure in perimeter security down there.

But Thursday night wasn't the time for long speeches, he said. It was the time for soldiers and their families to reconnect as soon as possible. Nice double entendre, Colonel! ;^)

I teach military people, vets and active duty, all the time. They are impressive. I am proud of their work and tell them so in each class.
