Pathetic (i am)
Just saw this collection of videos linked from Blues: Dogs welcoming home soldiers, and as Blue says they're enough to make a grown man cry. They're all surprisingly heartwarming, even through the American media treacle, but it was the last one that really got to me. Excuse me while I get whatever this is out of my eye.

Love it sad that my mate died in Afghan, nearly a year since he died and his birthday was 2 weeks ago.

The last one with all those the kids seeing their Dad's brought tears to my eyes. Some really beautiful, heart warming scenes. It brings home the reality that these soldiers are human, with families and loved ones who miss them desperately whilst they're away.
Sorry to hear about your mate cheets
