God Bless Your SIL and family. Glad he made it home safe. I’m sure he was missed. My son will be home in August.
Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend with your family!
My profound thanks to your son,and his service to our country
Please tell him Thank you and Welcome home!!!!!!
Wonderful!
Thank him for his service to this great nation.
God Bless America
My return from Vietnam was sure the opposite of what we saw yesterday. We were herded in to a building at Oakland Army Depot, measured for a Class A uniform then told to go to a mess hall for a steak but not to walk near a fence as the protesters would throw condoms filled with urine at us. The steak was like shoe soles. We then had to fly in Class A’s when we left there. No one said anything to me, but the looks said enough. Not a person came up to me and thanked me.
My request this Memorial Day is to find a veteran and thank him for what he did.
Thread Bump.
Tell him welcome home brother.
Please convey our FReeper thanks for his service and to his family who were without him while he was deployed.
God Bless your SIL! My SIL, a Marine, came back from his second tour last October. He will be going to Afghanistan sometime in the near future.
Enjoy your family while they are home!
Yay!
Homecoming day is the best.
Best wishes!
Please thank your SIL for his continued service! I’m happy for you all that he is home, safe and sound!
I’d like to give you a belated thank-you for your military service.
You guys got a raw deal when you returned home.
I’d like to say thank you too. I finished high school in 1975 and it was awful the way soldiers were treated. Thank you for a wonderful son in law also.
Thank him for me SLB. Our family had a son in Iraq who returned safely as well. We appreciate your son-in-law’s service.
congrats! thanks
Please welcome him home !
I am one proud American of your son-in-law !
Well, I’ll say it now — thank your for your service. My husband was a Navy Medical Corpsman at that time — he has shared similar stories with me.
We were herded in to a building at Oakland Army Depot,
Been there, done that.
At every opportunity, I shake hands with service members and thank them.
