Visalia soldier injured in Afghanistan coming back to U.S. on Friday| Visalia Times-Delta

For Rowdy and Vickie Kyle of Visalia, Friday can't come soon enough.

That's when their son, Army Staff Sgt. Kenneth Mitchell of Visalia is scheduled to arrive at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C. He was seriously injured Saturday by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan and has recovered in a German hospital.

"Our main concern [is] him being there by himself, and us not being able to be there," said Rowdy Kyle, who plans to be in Washington when Mitchell arrives.

Mitchell will also be reunited with his fianc馥, 2-month-old daughter and mother, Vickie Kyle.
