Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intent of arriving
safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in
broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming
"WOW!"  What a ride!

Know EXACTLY what you mean; that whole country is a cesspool (to be polite here).  Thank him for  a job well done and tell him to enjoy this break from the action.  Is he returning from deployment or just back for the 15-day mid-tour R&R?

Hill, He just returned from his second deployment. He is grazin' on home cooked vittles and watching football.

Thanks God!
My wife and I raised my nephew after my brother passed and he went into Iraq on the opening day of the war. We were glued to the news til midnight every night. One night we were listening to an reporter in the middle of a firefight and he finally mentioned he was with my nephews unit. He is a Navy medic attached to a Marine recon unit.
He phoned us from the graveyard outside one of the towns where they were disinterring some (8000) of Saddams victims. Most were children, and he was move to tears. His comment to us was "Why did we wait so long."
Bless your son and his efforts. We remember if it seems the rest of the country doesn't.
My nephew is going back in February because he knows the job needs to be finished.
All America lies at the end of the wilderness road, and our past is not a dead past, but still lives in us. Our forefathers had civilization inside themselves, the wild outside. We live in the civilization they created, but within us the wilderness still lingers. What they dreamed, we live, and what they lived, we dream. -- T.K. Whipple

Let me add a welcome home and we're damn (oops) proud of him and his buddies.
