  • My little brother has been gone since early June, and my dad and I worked with him to surprise my mom and the rest of my family for Christmas. He convinced everyone he couldn't get leave time approved. Hope everyone enjoys.

    Remember coming home unexpectedly after a year away overseas in the
    Navy. I wanted to surprise the family, so I didn't tell anyone. When I got there, everyone was gone -- they'd gone on vacation. It was kind of sad.

    • @BradCooney
      @BradCooney Před 7 lety +20

      IF you're an American, you enjoy the liberty and freedom to shoot your mouth off because good brave men in the armed forces died defending that freedom. Like I said before, if you have a problem with the US mission, fine, take your shots at the government. Don't disrespect the men and women in our military that are only following orders. If this country were ever to be invaded by an enemy, you'd be the first coward to run and hide behind a US Marine for safety. Now shut the fuck up.

    It got me two months leave and i come home .
    My wife and kids were gone out to eat when I got home so my brother helped me into the house and I sit in my recliner.
    My wife walked right past me and then just stopped.
    She turned around and lost it.
    She was pissed and happy at the same time and my at the time 3 kids came in and went wild.

      My uncle was deployed a few years ago. We are all terrified. A few months later the news said that 6 men (all from his regiment) were killed by an IED. No names were given. My uncle was MIA for 4 days after catching some shrapnel in the back of his neck. He was paralysed and could not move. He was presumed dead. He was found alive. We are so thankful for that. We lost 6 men. Close family friends and all my uncle's best friends. Unless you have had family in the army. You can not understand the fear and stress of knowing that at any moment. You can get that call.

    My brother only comes home from japan during the holidays and this year is the 2nd he won't be here on christmas day. I'm still happy he's able to come home for new years but christmas hasn't felt the same. He hasn't even been approved to come home yet but he booked a flight just incase I'm really hoping he can come home.
