Like all before me, thank you. Enjoy the holiday season with hope you find the peace you so deserve. My nephew just joined the Army and will be leaving his home in Indiana in about three weeks.

Welcome Home Brother!!!    Been there, done that, got the t-shirt and the scars.  There ain't enough money in the world to get me back over there!  I have a cousin on his 2nd tour over there now; I hope they get us out of that forsaken place soon.  Enjoy your time here brother!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays,
Kenny
