Happy Birthday Staff Sergeant Brooks!

Matt --2002

Today is our nephew, Matt's, 23rd birthday. He's currently serving a second tour in Iraq. We're fortunate in that we do get the occasional email from him. He rarely tells of his work there. Mostly, he'd like to have a beer, I think. I wish we could help him out with that, but alas, it's just not possible. The last time we tried to send him something it went all over the world. He eventually got it, but it took forever.

Matt, we're very proud of the fact that you chose to serve our country. We're proud of all of our troops! Take care and be safe. We love you and miss you very much!
