Craig is Home! Well, actually he is back with his family in Okinawa. Thank You Jesus for allowing my brother to return safely! Craig was in the first Gulf War. After that, he done a tour of duty in Somalia. When CRaig was there, he befriended a 10 year old Somalian boy. MY brother was working on a building, a school I believe, when this young Somalian boy came up to him and started cussing at him. I think it went something like this "You crazy American F - - - --g B-----d! Wow, the young boy was sure surpried when my brother issued a response to him in Somalian. So began a great friendship. I think back to when my brother was coming home from Somalia. My grandmother had just passed away, so it was bittersweet. The young boy, named Mohamed asked my brother when he was coming back..My brother had to answer "probably never". My brother then gave this young man some of his possessions. I have always wondered what happened to this young boy..
