On Saturday, May 14th, we had a warrior coming home from Afghanistan. Groups from all over South Florida met at Palm Beach International Airport to welcome him home. Thanks to Patriot Guard Riders, AnyStreet, FreeRepublic, South Florida 912, Welcome Home Warriors, A Hero's Welcome, The Major Stewart Adam Wolfer Institute and other patriots.
Hero ping!
Welcome home, shipmate!
Awesome.
And we also remember to say prayers for our fallen heroes and their families who sacrifice so much.
PVT. Lamarol J. Tucker, 26, of Gainesville, FL died May 16, of wounds suffered when insurgents attacked his unit using an improvised explosive device in Zabul province, Afghanistan. He was assigned to the Brigade Troops Battalion, 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, Fort Wainwright, AK.
Welcome home Anthony. While I weep for Lamarol Tucker I am inspired by your courage and sacrifice. May all of you come home where you belong.
