Yesterday we went to welcome the 755+h Chemical Company home from their 16 month deployment to Iraq. Our good friend, Wayne was part of that company. It was, to say the least, awesome. I, like an idiot, forgot my camera. Can you believe that?!?! And of course we were running so late that by the time I realized we didn't have it, it was too late to come home and get it. I will try my best to find some pictures to post, but don't hold your breath. Once we got there, Amy (Wayne's wife) realized that she had her camera, but the batteries were dead. :( This might be something that just lives in our little pea sized brains.
If you ever have the chance to welcome a soldier home, I highly recommend it. It is a feeling of patriotism that you may never have a second chance to experience. It's wonderful. And, thank God, Wayne is home safe, sound, and alive. Two other soldiers from his company were not so lucky.
There were hundreds of signs saying things like "Welcome Home 755+h!", etc. But, one of the best said:
Pederson is gone
Callahan is gone
Craig is home
Life is GOOD!!!
Amen.... and God Bless America!!!!
