My heart leapt with joy to learn that one of these awesome hometown welcomes was for a LIVE returning soldier. May God speed his recovery, and richly bless him and his family (more than He already has).
Thanks for the cry. It brought back memories of my Uncle, who lost both lower legs in WWII by the damn Nazis.
He never forgot it, and neither do I.
