Congrats brother!

I know the stresses that come with loved ones being overseas from all angles. I got the experience and insanity that comes from being overseas myself and the horrors and pride from having a younger brother downrange as well! Pass along my gratitude and tell him congrats for getting out of that sandbox in one piece!

Thanks guys for your support. This deployment has been very stressful. He has been hit a couple of times and the time not hearing from him was nerve racking.
He got shot in the hand, took a ricochet in the forearm and some shrapnel in back of his right leg and butt. All minor wounds compaired to what some of his squad took.
He will be transfering to Fort Carson in a few months and unfortunately will go into his new brigades schedule. He looks to redeploy in less than a year. He hopes he will get a cushy job in a FOB next trip. Once again thank you all and I will relay your messages of support and thanks

"He's home".

Two of the most satisfying words any parent could ever say.

God bless you for raising him and him for his service to the people of this nation.

Please let him know how proud we all are of his selfless service.
