I had to make a sarcastic remark since I despise how the media portrays certain things. In my eyes, they picked this one kid for a story and make it sound like the feel-good moment of the year. Puh-leaze. Each and every time a vet returns home safe and sound there are plenty of kids, wives, etc... teary eyed and get zero coverage, thanks, etc... I simply fail to see why this punk kid is any different and why people fall all over it.

I don't think the home comings get nearly enough attention.
Everytime I see a soldier in uniform I thank him for his service, ask if he is coming or going and wish him well either way. If I see him in a resturant I offer to buy his dinner or drink or what ever.
