Mission Complete!
Several members of the Patriot Guard, represenatives from the Blue Star Moms, and about 25 members of Petty Officer
Heckathorn's squadron were on hand to welcome him home tonight at the airport, along with his grateful and extremely happy family.
The Commander of Petty Officer Heckathorne's squadron presonally thanked all the PGR members for our presence as did most of his squadron members while we thanked them for their service to our country.
As a bonus to this welcome home, we were able to greet three more service members returning on another flight while manning the flag line.
A "Feel Good"mission all the way.
To the riders present, thank you for giving of your time on a holiday, job well done
To the USO staff, thank you for the use of your facility while we awaited the flight arrival .
