Fourteen months serving your nation and the greater good of mankind in a desolate, sandy hellhole half way across the world; putting your life on the line every day, all day, making decisions most others couldn’t or wouldn’t make; a freely chosen commitment of sacrifice and service; and only one thing can bring you to tears: your two Border Collies.

Welcome home, Airman, welcome home.
