GREAT! Tell him we are prouid of him and his compadres.
Remember, he is still quite young. He can carry a man's duty and responsibility, carry a man's load in the field and do a man's job on the line but he is still very young. He needs the "keys" for awhile, just to let down from a man's world a few days.
God bless you all.

Well said wncchester...never a truer word was spoken. Matt will be carrying images, fears and memories from his time in combat...some good, others very much the opposite. He needs people around him who love and support him to give him time to deal with everything in his own time...be there to give him a shoulder to cry on, and lean on if he needs it. Also be prepared to pick up the pieces if he "falls over".
Give him my regards and tell him not to lock those that care for him out of his thoughts.
Cheers, Vince

Thanks to all of you, I will have my son set down tomorrow if he comes home and read what you post. I am sure he will be happy to see what you have to say.

Glad to hear he's back OK. Know that many folks really do realize what our troops are doing and appreciate it.
