WELCOME HOME

(Click on the images to enlarge them)

Troop movement is all about as you are aware. Some of you are close to completing your service, and others are just starting their tour. I would like to address the men and women who are close to coming home. Just the thought of such a day can be wonderful, but it can also be a distraction. I wish you the best, but be dutiful in your diligence so that day becomes a reality. We at home at are doing our best to keep it as you left it, but that requires a lot on our part. Most Americans are hard at work everyday, as are you. We are spoiled here at home though, and only by your dedication can we be as such. No matter how gloom the news looks from over on the other side of the planet, we still have it pretty damn good over here. We sleep in soft beds with springs, sleep with our loved ones, take hot baths, eat meat marbled with fat, drink water out of pipes without slimy things, and our girl friends smell good; no matter how your buddies love you, they do not always smell good--be honest!

Even in a crowd you can be alone. You can be lonely in a crowded mall, but to tell you the truth, moreover a perspective, there are just as many in that crowd who are opportunities to make a new friend! Remember that when you come home!
