Deana Rosales:

Thank you for posting this photo of my son, Pvt. Hoffman. It is a happy moment for me to be able to see him. He calls frequently, but I like to see his face. I am very proud of him for his decision to join the Army and help protect our country. A big thank you to all the men and women who have taken on this responsibility and God bless you all.

Budd Cobb:

We are proud to see our son's photo, Spc Cobb, in your article. We know he takes his job very serious and are always glad to hear from him or see a recent picture. We know that Apache Company 2-7th Cav has contributed greatly to helping Mosul. We hope and pray that their total efforts including their sacrifices will be remembered as benificial to the Iraqi people and that the city will one day live in peace and prosper.

David Cobb:

I am always happy to see a picture of my nephew . There are a lot of people who love and care about this young man right here in South Carolina. I am proud of him and the efforts he has made in the name of his country.This young man wanted to serve his country because he is an American Patriot. I think he is a credit to his generation.

Janette Martin:

It was so good to see this picture of my nephew. I'm very proud of him and all of the men and women who are there protecting our country. My prayers are with all of you.
