I cant believe our soldiers are coming home already. To me its been a fast year. My husband and son are in the 45th and its my first deployment. My husband is due home on Wednesday and my son on Thursday. I am so excited to see them and plan on being there to pick them up. Thanks for the news coverage and updates on our Oklahoma soldiers. God Bless them all.
