I'd like to thank my wife, Melissa, for supporting me through this deployment. Hi to my son, Gabriel. I love you both. I can't wait to see them again during leave time. The biggest thing that we're here for is to help the Iraqi people so they can have their freedom. I think the faster that they are able to take care of themselves over here, the faster we will be able to come home. I just want to thank everyone for supporting us while we're over here.
