I agree, Dana! Those guys are heroes! They need to be appreciated and celebrated. Please let your brother & nephew know that there are people who are thankful for them and appreciate the MANY sacrifices made.

I'm glad that they both are home safe!

thanks for your comments, ladies. i, too, am very thankful that they are home safely, however, they are only home for R&R. they both fly back out this weekend to serve the remainder of their tours in Iraq. this is my brother's second tour in Iraq...we're praying that he will again return safely this fall and not have to go back again. this is my nephew's first tour, and i hope he doesn't have to serve a second one. please keep them and their families in your prayers.
