I am glad the guy was still alive. Things don't always work out so well when you put someone into a freezer.

Watch the news, you see 1000 stories like this every week. Hey! I don't even have any relatives "In the war" , and i want THEM ALL to come home. Ya know what i'd like to see? That's NOT newsworthy? How about a single soldier with no kids, who can't wait to get home to see his favorite pooch? Now THAT's a love / friend story!

[Whats on my mind]

Thats the sweetest story i have ever heard.

That says a lot for that soldier.

Too many men that are stepdads aren't that well loved by the children - quite a nice family.

Good for them and congrats to all who helped pull it off.
