Thanks ever so much Dearest Beks! I couldn't agree more. As it happens, he has orders to report to South Carolina where this two time combat vet will be on training cadre and, hence, stuck stateside! That should kill some time! HoooRAH!

What a great Father's Day gift to have your son back home again - safe & sound!

I hope all parents will be able to share in the same joy that you have - very soon.

The place in the photo that he is in Afghanistan looks so beautiful compared to what we usually see on the news.

May God bless and take care of our men and women still in the region.

Happy Father's Day!

Well, I guess you must be a pretty happy chappy!

And it's not a bad photo either. Shall I give it the once over? Why not!

What first strikes me is the apparent incongruity of the tools of war and feeling of force in this stunning landscape (despite the fact that such scenes are common in far too many places around the world...) But then the very human feelings come through in the face of your son. The guy who took this shot did a pretty fine job. (Those cables at top right are almost naturally "cloned out"!) Nice one.
