Getting Ready

Stars & Stripes has a nice article about preparations for the return of the 2nd SCR to Vilseck. Excerpt:

VILSECK, Germany — Like kids who can’t wait for Christmas, families here have put up the decorations in anticipation the 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment’s return.

Stryker soldiers have been in Iraq since August 2007 and are expected home in November. But this week, on-post streets in Vilseck are lined with U.S. flags and yellow ribbons. Fences near the main gate are plastered with signs welcoming home individual soldiers or sub-units within the regiment. One features the silhouette of a soldier mowing a lawn from a wife looking forward to some help with the yardwork.
