Great. Welcome home for the holidays. Thank you for your service.
I would like to say Welcome home friends!
I retired just before TF 49 departed, and I
knew a few soldiers there.
Thank you for your service,
Stand Proud of your accomplishments!
Here's to a Safe and Happy Welcome Home! Merry Christmas just a little early to all the soldiers and their families.
Welcome home, guys and gals. Heck of a job by a brigade level atypical organization that was "supposed" to never be able to deploy...much less too it from a dead standstill to Iraq in two months. Ouch ;) Congrats to the families especially.
