Glad you were able to spend the night getting together for a drink before he left.

Will be thinking of him.

Eric is with the 82nd Airborne. But now I have to ask him that question.

OK, I found out he is a 12B- Combat Engineer. What does that mean?? He got my package and smoked 2 cigars last night. Bringing joy to our troops.

Looks like Eric is coming home tomorrow. Going to meet him at the airport along with Warriors Watch Riders - they provide welcome home and sendoffs for the heros of our military both past and present. From what I understand that they follow you all the way to your home. I will post pics.

Just a quick update. Eric made it "home" to his Base from his first tour. He should be back in IL the first week in May. Can't wait to see the kid.

Excellent news! My nephew is half way through his AIT school at Fort Leonard Wood (Combat Engineer). Is your brother a CE?
