Departure

Just after midnight Friday morning in the Middle East a military transport arrived at Camp Udari in the Kuwaiti desert. On board were members of the 1-14 Cavalry Regiment. The first ever Stryker Brigade Combat Team to deploy in wartime is on it's way home. Hooah!

We talked to our Soldier on MSN Messenger shortly after his arrival in Kuwait. He wanted to let us know that he was in Kuwait and would be on his way to the United States within 24 hours. October in the desert by the sea. It was cool and misting rain when we talked to him. Must be Mother Nature's way of acclimating him for what's to come once he hits Washington state.
