Bobby presented me with 5 rolls of photos today, so it was hard for me to pick and chose a few. Thought you'd enjoy seeing some of them.

UPDATE!!!! Big Dude has graciously lightened these photos in his post on page 2. THANKS!!!!

Nick and Bobby enjoying some salsa and chips from a care package...

This was the Marine (Dustin) who was getting NO mail or packages...but thanks to a lot of great folks on the DIS...

Camel Herd...

Bobby - modeling the latest in chemical suits...

Anyone for a game of Battleship? From the look on Nick's face, Bobby must have just sunk his battleship...

On their way home - refueling in Amsterdam and their first view of green grass in 5 months...

Wow, those pictures really put things in perspective. I'd last about two minutes over there.......that camel herd would just do me in.

Big thanks to your son for protecting our country, Mom. Your posts about his journey have been so heartwarming. I am so happy he is home and safe!

I'll try and scan some more later this week and post them. There's definately some that I can't post....let me just say that those guys do some pretty gross stuff to pass the time of day.

Thanks for sharing the pictures, Patty. It brought tears to my eyes to see Dustin with all those packages. DISers are a GREAT bunch of folks!

Patty, those pics are fantastic! Not sure I'd be up for salsa in the blazing heat...but more power to 'em! And the latest in Chem Gear looks....well, HOT! <lol>

Now, where do I sign up for the *good* pictures that you don't want to show us here????? Do I have to show ID to prove I'm old enough?

Thanks again for all the photos/information/thoughts you've shared over the past five months. You've really brought this war "home" to me in a way I never could have imagined. From watching news footage and looking for a guy with a box of Triscuts to sheding tears over his homecoming....I appreciate all you've shared.

Ok, enough butt kissing....where are the good photos????

Love 'em! More pics please....

Thanks so much for sharing the photos, Patty!! Did Mike ever say if he received his packages, either? That's who I sent to, as well as Bobby.

Thanks for sharing. I'm so glad Bobby's home where he belongs. You brought all that was going on much closer to me and my family. I thank you for sharing your son with us.

Patty, you are such a sweetie to always share your story and pics. I look forward to a lot more...didn't you say more real soon?
