On Saturday, June 26th, Marine Lcpl. Miguel Moreno
returned home for leave from two deployments in Afghanistan. His
remaining tour will be stateside. Several communities, in cooperation
with God Bless The Troops participated in a SURPRISE
welcome home for this brave Marine.
We escorted Marine Moreno down Mannheim Road where he was greeted
by passing motorists, blowing their horns, smiling, waving. Some
even saluted.
Once we were in Leyden Township - the first of many moving tributes
were the two ladder trucks, one from Northlake and the other from
Leyden Township extending over Mannheim Road with a flag draped
down.
If that wasn't moving enough, there were two firemen standing
atop the ladders, while other firemen, and some citizens stood
nearby taking pictures.
