Title: Grandson home at last
Post by: paperchaser on September 08, 2020, 08:22:38 AM

By the grace God my grandson is home safe and sound from Afghanistan.   He's the medic on a Special Ops team and proud to be one.
Tears of joy and relief fill my old eyes and pride never ceases.
Much like when my "baby boy" returned from Iraq 6 years ago, he is now a retired GySgt USMC.

Happy for his safe return ...Thanks for his & your Sons service...

I assume you yourself served ?  as they follow in your footsteps ?

Tell both of them welcome home and thank them for their service from an old Vietnam vet.
