Welcome to FR and welcome home. Keep working to get those GOOD Stories out there so that we be over with this action and bring the rest of the troops home for a BIG CELEBRATION for all of them.

Again Welcome Home!

Well, not quite home yet. I'm actually up North with 4ID, but that's alright because it seems those wonderful guys in I MEF will be back here about the time I'm heading home. I will celebrate when I get home, but I will always remember (and I am sure you and many others here most likely share this sentiment) that it will be a very long time before the last American soldier comes home. Even if there is a day when we are no longer needed here, I have no illusions that there will most likely be other places where the men and women of the Army, Marines, Navy and Air Force will be called on to serve their nation and freedom. If there is a day in my lifetime then the last of our heroes comes home, a day when there is no more war to fight, no more threat to ourselves and to the freedom of any, when that day comes I will celebrate as no one has before. I will cry until I have no more tears, and I will cheer until I have no more voice. I can dream of no better day than when the last soldier comes marching home.
