Jimmie was stationed in Ft. Hood when he got the letter that brought tears to his eyes. He hadn’t seen his family since the previous Halloween and his homesickness was becoming unbearable. The letter cleared his leave and confirmed that he could go home over the Memorial Day weekend.
Jimmie didn’t waste a second. He packed his bags as fast as he could and grabbed the opportunity to go home with both hands. But, even though he had seen terrible things in the army, he could never have anticipated the hardships that were about to follow.
