Default My son is back in the states

Just wanted to share my joy. My son is a combat medic with the Army and he just got back from his second tour of duty in Afghanistan. He is back in Seattle with his wife and 3 young children. It is a good day indeed...

A father couldn't be any prouder. And a mother couldn't be any more relieved to have him back safe and sound.

Great new Rick,, Thank you, your family and your son for he's service. As a parent it isn't easy knowing your son or daughter is in harms way. God bless.

Hats off to your son. I'm very happy he returned to his family safe and sound.

Thank him for me, too.

My grandpa was an Army medic in the Pacific in WWII. Didn't speak much about that...

It is always good news when one of our troops, comrades in arms past or present return to their loved ones. Thank you for sharing and as we approach this coming holiday, thank him for his dedication to service as to all of those past and present.

What a relief! My son was also a combat medic in Afghanistan. He came back safely as well. I share your happiness. It is amazing how meaningful his life already is. I wish him all the success in the world. Now you can relax again.
