SOME GOOD NEWS:

Sunday was a day of celebration for the friends and families of 300 Tennessee National Guardsmen and women. The 1175th Transportation Company was away from home for a year.

The 1175th transportation company returned home Sunday after a one year tour of duty in Iraq. They left for Iraq in May of 2007. Friends, family and supporters welcomed the soldiers as they flew in to the guard’s flight facility in Smyrna. Soldiers got a hero’s welcome as they stepped off the plane, and loved ones say perhaps best of all, every member of the company returned home safely.

Good news, as I say.
