Home for the Holidays

In Much More than a Minute, I mentioned that the son of an old friend from Scranton had been injured in Iraq.

The local Scranton paper, the Times-Tribune reports that he arrived home a few days before Christmas:

The 20-year-old Marine was shot in his Humvee by a sniper on Thanksgiving Day while serving near Fallujah, Iraq. After getting medical attention in Iraq, he was flown to a hospital in Germany before returning to Camp Lejeune in North Carolina, where he is based with the 2nd Battalion, 8th Marines. He will be home in Scranton with his family for 30 days.

That's a Merry Christmas!
