This is a photo of my husband, Senior Airman Garrett Nomura, and his unit, the 886th Expeditionary Security Forces Squadron. They deployed in April to Camp Bucca, Iraq.

Garrett is from Hawai'i Kai and is a graduate of Kaiser High School. We have a son, Shaun.

SGT. TIMOTHY L. JUMP

This is a photo of my husband, Timothy Jump, the day he left for Iraq. He is with the 1st Battalion, 3rd Marines H&S Company at Kane'ohe Bay. He joined the service in 2000.

Timothy is from Naperville, Ill. We have two children, Breanna, 10, and Cullan, 8.

His unit deployed on March 19 to Haditha Dam, Iraq. They are due home in late October or early November.

We love and miss him very much. We wish all our military the best and a quick and safe return home!
