Christian,
Thanks so much for posting this video on the Free Press' web-site. I want to thank all of the troops and their families for sacrificing their time, hard-work and service to protect us during these tough, uncertain times. Being a native of Dalton, but living away from there at the moment, it's nice to see people from home supporting our local unit and honoring them as they leave for their year of service. I would especially like to thank one of the families that I have known all of my life (you know who you are!) for supporting their son in his service to our country. You are all in my prayers and I know that God will give you strength to face this difficult time apart.
I would love to see more footage from the actual send-off ceremony if that is possible on this site.
Thanks so much,
David
