Good deal - that must be a huge relief for you. I left for GW1 and came back to a mother with a head full of gray hair.

Ditto for me.

My Dad rides with the Patriot Guard here in North Texas. Last week, they escorted another guy home who just happens to be a big Chiefs fan. Hell, the whole family is, so we're up next week to visit with them for a bit and thank this guy for his efforts.

Good news. Here's hoping they don't 'stop/loss' him and he gets out when he's scheduled to get out.

Thats about the most asshole question to ever ask anyone returning from there.

I've heard 2-3 dumbf@cks ask my brother if he killed anyone within 30 seconds of a conversation....and not close friends.

What a dickhole. Punch yourself in the nuts.

Congratulations, Mr. seclark. You have every right to be proud. As does he. When the opportunity arrives, give that man a beer from me.

he's home...the wife's on the phone w/him right now in the house. i talked w/him a couple minutes and turned the phone over to her. i couldn't get a word in edgewise, so i gave the phone to her, grabbed a beer and came out on the patio to check the chicken on the grill.

i'm in a pretty good mood tonight.
thanks again

That's awesome man.

Good bless you and your son for the contributions you've made to this country.

Here's to hoping his duty is done and he doesn't have to go back.
