This is some good news -- the type almost always ignored by MSM -- from my newspaper reporter daughter.
There is also a touching photo, worth checking out, which accompanies the story.
Enjoy.

I guess his deployment wasn't quite 1 full year-long wink wink. They were busy just before he left, as we would have been also.
Welcome home, heroes!

"First wave of soldiers return from Iraq duty"
This headline makes me want to grab the writer by the throat and mimic the hockey club owner in Slapshot trying to get his Quebecois player to stop saying "Who own da Chiefs?" by telling him, "Ownzzzz. OwnZZZ!!"
"Wave" is singular and the subject. Soldiers, the plural, is part of a prepositional phrase. The first wave returnzzz. Returnzzz!!!
