HOME SWEET HOME!!!

Well 16 months ago, my family and I saw my cousin, Steve leave from Fairbanks, AK for what we thought was a 12 month tour to Iraq. He was there and located in Mosul and ready to come home last July/Aug, when he was told that not only was he NOT going home but he was staying and his unit would be transferred to Bagdhad, and dealing with some of the toughest Secretarian violence around. Well, with tears in my eyes, my sweet cousin, is HOME! He just landed back at his base, after a 16 month tour, serving our country. He is SAFE and has all fingers and all toes. Welcome Home, Steve, Welcome Home! We love you very much and are all thankful for your safe return!
