I’m Home!

Information September 23 2007

— By Marcus

I wanted to let everyone know that I have made it safely home! I got into base last night to the cheers of a huge crowd of families. My wife, daughter, mom, dad, and mom-in-law were all waiting once I got off the bus. I am really surprised at how big my little girl has gotten. Man, it is amazing.

I’ll be spending time with family over the next few days and I also hope to get some stories up from the deployment that I wanted to wait to share. Thank you to everyone for your support over the last seven months! It feels great to be home!

Cpl M.,

It is so wonderful that you are back home. Prayers have surely been answered. Welcome back and Sir, Thank you for what you have done. This generation and the ones to come owe you all a debt of gratitude that can never be repaid fully.

Cpl M, My brother just landed on US soil yesterday. I have not got to see him except on the news. Most of the soldiers in his BN say they love to see the green grass opposed to sand. Thank you for everything.

Welcome home, Cpl. Glad to hear you are back safe and whole. Thanks for the sacrifices you make. Kids grow like weeds. It’s a proven fact, so spend as much time as you can with the little one (and you’re wife too, of course).
