Almost home...

Homecoming - DFW Airport

Dear American Hero,
I am Not Certain as to How to Express My Gratitude for All You Have Done to Secure My Freedom. Please Accept this Simple Card as a Small Token of My Appreciation.
A Grateful American Citizen


Afternoon...

We just received a call from Chris! He is is at DFW and is on track to arrive in Colorado at 8pm...woohoo! He said his welcome at DFW was outstanding!

To those who give of their time to make our heroes feel welcomed...thank you so much!

Here are some words on what is done to welcome home our warriors for R&R:

Every day, more than 100 soldiers come through DFW Airport on their way home for two weeks of much-anticipated rest and recuperation (R&R). Under the R&R program, American servicemen and women receive these brief vacations from tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. DFW Airport welcomes home these members of the armed forces as they return from duty. One R&R flight lands every day at DFW, and this warm welcome home starts their two weeks of R&R on a high note. DFW has assisted thousands of men and women since the R&R flights first started in November 2004.





Almost home to Colorado...
