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.

Thanks and welcome home... Just got back from El Paso yesterday, it's a nice town, you'll have plenty of things to do while you are waiting. My wife wanted to stop at all of the outlet stores but luckily for me we were out of time just getting done what we needed. I'm sure we'll be visiting them in the future!!!

Well 7:30 yesterday morning that Big Bird touched down in El Paso and 290 Soldiers got off it to the Great Joy of Many a Child, Wife and Parent. They walked within 30 feet of us and straight into the building. The worst part was waiting while They turned in their gearthen they marched into the Hall and a few words were said the flags were uncased and ALL HELL BROKE LOSE Mothers and Wives searching for their Soldier and finding them Lots of Hugging and Crying it was Great. We found Cody and got our hugs We took him out and back to the Hotel and just chilled then took him out for diner and just walking around Great Day. So Glad to Have Him Home Safe words can't describe thanks to everyone for the best wishes and he has seen this thread and he says Thank You to All of You

Here he is with one Happy Mothe116217
