I bookmarked this site. Thanks heaps for this!… if anyone else has anything, it would be much appreciated.
That is totally awesome! Thanks so much for all serving. You guys have an amazing website! I’m the proud daughter of a National Guard soldier, and this website helps me stay Army strong, Hooah!
These are great stories. Do you have any stories about mothers coming back?
What beautiful pictures capturing such precious moments. I can really appreciate these being a father of two amazing sons. The emotions that you can get as a father towards your children goes beyond being able to explain in words.
