Nick is Home!

Nick arrived in Atlanta via Germany this morning at 6:50 a.m. At 12:20 p.m. he arrived in Detroit to the waiting arms of his youngest brother, James. He is so glad to be home! His flight from Germany was a commercial flight with all military personnel on board - all going on their two-week leave from Iraq (mostly Army with only 7 Marines on board). His flight from Atlanta to Detroit was a civilian flight, so the captain announced his and one other Marine's name over the loud speaker as being special guests on their flight. After the applause died down, the beer arrived. Nick said everyone on the plane wanted to buy him a beer!
