Navy Captain Michael "Scott" Speicher's remains are at this very moment being offloaded from a chartered plane at NAS Jax.
Welcome home, Scott.
Watching this has me in tears.

On the very first day no less.
My first duty station was NAS Cecil Field. It was his last.
Heavy sigh.

And a bit of a shame that the news couldn't at least mention the thousands who have never come home from our wars. I'm glad they his remains have been returned.
