I wanted to personally thank all of you who came for our soldier's welcome home. Thank You!!! It meant a lot to me as a PGR member, to the rest of the families and mostly the soldiers. They didn't know what to expect when they came home and having the PGR as part of the escort made them feel good.

While my husband extended for another year, I was there and I was proud to be a soldier's wife as well as a PGR member!
