Evening...

Some of the first photos of joint patrols for the 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT), 25th ID as they prepare to replace the 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment in Iraq appeared tonight on the web.

These photos paint a clear picture...don't you think? They need no words...

Enjoy!

Chris, I love you son. As I have said many times buddy, finish strong!

Be safe!

Not that I wish anyone to have to go through this, but I am glad to see that the 2SCR's time is up. The sight of these brave men transitioning their duties to the next unit is a welcome sight to this Dad. Thanks again to Myron and Marti for helping us all get through this difficult time.

These photos make the end in sight seem real. Even though I knew it was here this brings true closure to the deployment.
