I love it when my troops come home!! The advice I give my brides.......is have the crew meet him...at the base....where ever you get to have your first contact. Then do things a bit out of order. Send them home.......get that wine out, get cuddly and let all the hard times just pass away. THEN get the crew together and PARTY! A day or two latter. Sounds as if all he wants right now is to be normal, be safe in your arms, and rightly so. Blessing to you, and thank him for his service, and thanks to you for yours. We can often forget our service spouses, they do hard duty here back in the states. Chaplain Debby

Make your guest list short you and him! If you wish to have a small party for him with a welcome home cake and such then have them know and understand, not too long or late. He's going to be tired, exhausted, an emotional wreck in some ways and very excited to be with you. The more time together showing him how much you've missed him, being there for him, and letting him know you love and have supported him is the most wonderful thing you can do. I'm glad to hear he's coming home and safe too. My son just got back after 20 months there, I made sure he and his wife had all the time they wanted without being disturbed. I rented them a cabin where no one knew where it was till they were ready to come back.

I would try and tell your sister that you'd like some time alone with hubby and you'll do a big welcome later. If he says he doesn't want anything big that's probably a hint he's dying to see you and be with you! Ask your sister if she'd like to plan something for the next day.

Find a long raincoat and take it with you to greet him........Then, find somewhere safe and take off everything
under the coat, so that is all you are wearing is the coat.........
After you greet him, the first SAFE chance you have.....open your coat and flash him.......My wife did that for me once....It was the BEST Homecoming present I have ever gotten.........
Have your family homecoming later, or the next day !

make his favorite meal for him, and rent a couple movies so he can relax
and to the person who says serve him with divorce papers the men and women who serve our country do not need to hear nasty responses like that, I am damn proud of my airman and what he has done so if you don't like the fact someone joins the military keep your mouth shut its because of him that you have your freedoms

If it was my husband, I'd serve him some divorce papers, call him a murderer and refuse to let him enter my home. Not exactly small and simple, but certainly justified for someone like that! Luckily, my partner isn't immoral enough to join the American military on their evil crusade.
