Well everyone, our tour has come to an end. We, Regimental Combat Team 1, have accomplished a lot over the last year. Just see our last post to learn more about that. But none of it would have been possible without the great support of our friends, families and everyone else who has our backs there in the U.S. We have received countless care packages, letters, e-mails and other gestures of support throughout this tour and we owe our fondest gratitude to you all.

We are on our way home now and we look forward to arriving back on U.S. soil. We have missed the everyday luxuries that we sometimes forget about until we don't have them anymore, especially spending time with our loved ones. Deployments are always difficult on everyone, but I think I speak for all of us when I say we are proud to serve you, the great citizens of the United States of America.

Again, thank you all for your support. Please continue to visit us on our stateside Web site www.i-mef.usmc.mil/div/1mar/default.asp.

Semper Fidelis

Thank you Marines for serving and for your sacrifices for us, we the people, for our country and constitution. Without you all and those before you and who will serve after you - we would not be the nation you honorably serve. Thank you again, and WELCOME HOME!!!!
