Some 700 men and women of the Oregon National Guard, the 2-62 began arriving at Fort Lewis WA afte more than a year deployment with Iraqui Freedom. The first planeload touched down yesterday. The unit suffered 8 kia and numerous wia, one of the highest casualty count for a NG unit/
I want to say welcome home, job well done, and thank all of them for seving and sacrificing for us.
The 2-162 will be deactivated at a ceromony at the Salem, Or armory on March 31.
If any one sees these brave warriors on there trek along I-5 give them a wave and a honk.
