Hugh, You and your family are entitled to the joy of this event. I hope you revel in it. We all thank Hugh Jr. for his service.

Iraq to Alaska? The DOD's sense of humor is surpassed only by God's.

Never underestimate the Alaskans though :)

Hugh, good to read he made it back OK. And I heard Jan Still's backyard makes a great camp site.

I am so thankful. Prayers are answered.

Wonderful news Hugh. Delighted to hear it.
I can only imagine how relieved (and proud) you must feel.

How about regaling us with the story behind the Bronze Star. They don't just give those things away for showing up you know! <grin>

(Buy him a S&W Mountain Gun before he goes to Alaska. That 9mm Beretta popgun the Army issues won't do him much good there.)

No doubt they will issue him mosquito netting and demand he return the parka they issued him for Iraq!

Hugh,

A Sergeant First Class Christmas present!

No matter how old your kids are, you never stop being a parent. I can only imagine the sense of relief and peace of mind you have, now that your son is safe and out of harm's way.

As I noted in a post in another topic,

Best wishes for a Happy New Year!

Dave in TN.:cheers:

I am delighted for you and your family. You can sleep well at night from here on.

Great news. Now I hope he gets to hunt and fish all the time he's up there.
He's earned it.

Let him know we are all proud of him Hugh... A very happy new year indeed. My son in law deployed last month... only 14 to go. He is special ops and we don't even know where he is... the hair I have left will be completely gray by the time this year is over...

I am very happy for you and your family.
