The best Christmas present, ever!

My son is on the left and his leader SFC Levy is on the right.


Ok, I must admit that I received the best Christmas present in my entire life. My son called me on Christmas morning. It was awesome, it was short but great. I also heard from his battle buddy who sustained wounds from an RPG round just a few days before the Holiday and he is doing well. My soldier has reenlisted so he can stay with his unit. He doesn't want to report to a reserve unit only to re-deploy with a different unit. He cares about the men he serves with and wants to stay in the fight with his Band of Brothers. I am very proud of my son and hope that he finds his true calling. I want to thank all of you for your support. I have not received one negative comment on this site and I truly appreciate that. I love my soldier but I also love the men and women that serve our Nation. Eight months to go and then they will return as a unit, as an Army of one, Army Strong. We will accept them as a family and watch over them. With your help, we can help, support and love them for what they do. May God bless them all! Stay in touch when you can.
