    Glad your son is coming home, add my thanks to the list. Take care in El Paso, our side of the river is plenty rough. Ask around before doing any exploring during your down time.

    Menner thanks to your family and your son Cody for his willingness to protect and serve our great country. It is brave men and women like him that keeps us free. Enjoy your selves over the next little while and I know you will enjoy having your son close to you again.

    So glad to hear he is coming home safe and sound. Fort Bliss is a nice post, I was there for a little while. Please express our appreciation to him for his willingness to serve and defend our nation. Congratulations to you and your wife for his safe return, you should be proud of the job you did raising him up. We will keep all of you in our prayers. God Bless.
