The wife of an Army sergeant seriously wounded this week in Iraq is breathing a little easier today after learning that Sgt. Paul Schmitz is on his way back from Iraq to the United States.

Stacie Schmitz, daughter of Robin Smith of Columbus, was able to speak to her husband Friday as he recuperated at the Landstuhl Hospital in Germany. Schmitz, assigned to the 1st Battalion, 23rd Infantry Division, suffered a gunshot wound to his back during intense fighting in the Mosul area.
