Thank you so much for escorting David when he arrived from Iraq. You will never know how many lives you touched that day. You certainly touched ours.
Thank you, too, for his hat. David would certainly be proud to wear it, I assure you. He would be excited about being an honorary member!
I wish you could hear the many comments I have heard. SGT Palmer, for instance, told all of his buddies at Ft. Campbell about the patriotism shown by your group. Those fellows and gals there need to know how much we appreciate them. Some of my friends who are Vietnam Vets have told me how much the show of patriotism has meant to them, also. You have touched them deeply.
Thank you for being such a blessing!

No one could have had a more grand welcome home Hero than what Spec David McCormick received today. There was so much love in the air along with everyone putting aside their selfishness, predigest and feelings stemming from our present political conditions. It seemed like we all who participated and stood on the side united even if just for a short while. You were right when you told me that it would be something to see. It was a very emotional time for me as well as others. In that time while I stood as the vehicles all drove by it gave me the quit time to reflect on how so many things that a lot of people take for granted. And how we should thank the good Lord for all of the many blessings he gives us daily even if small blessings. The many strangers that all worked together to help continue David’s trip home, even though their interest may be different, along with skin color, rich/poor, Veteran/ non- Veteran; it was a grand site to be a part of.
I commend Brazoria County Cavalry as well as the Military, VFW and Fire departments who helped. I recognized many of the bikers as they drove by where I was standing. There were some who are from Sargent as well as Phillips. My prayer goes out to David’s family, his troop in Iraq as well as his friends everywhere.
Thanks, Brazoria County Cavalry for your continued love for people.
God bless you and all who welcomed David home as well as your families.
Love,
Jo

I just wanted to say Thank-you so much for sharing these videos of these soldier’s homecomings! I was looking at Military Moms and Wives website and looked at ya’lls section and decided to check out the videos. I sat and cried while watching the videos, but I have to tell you that it put a very good feeling in my heart to see the good men and women who are taking the time to show their appreciation to our soldiers! Thank you to all of you who are so kind in putting these events together and making these people feel so good! Our youngest daughter has recently become a US Marine and we are so, so proud of her! Everyday we have friends who ask how she is doing and it makes us feel so good knowing that others are thinking and caring about her! We just continue to pray for her and her fellow Marines! Thank you again for all you are doing! It makes such an impression seeing these motorcycles coming down the road!!

Wow! My heart is running over , it truly is! I will never be able to explain what this means to not only my family but so much more to his. His Step-Father Steve was really moved hearing of this and this organization. He had never heard of this group and was so excited to experience this! He rides a Road King so I expect to see him around now. Thank you all so much for knowing the importance of this and making it a reality for all that love Zach Browing. We will pay this forward many times over, I promise!
With so much respect,

I can’t thank you enough for all the support, love, and time you dedicate to our family in welcoming home our son, Jeffrey! He was in shock! God Bless you and your families ten times, for all you give!
He absolutely loves his hat!

I want to express my sincere gratitude for the over-whelming welcome I recieved! It was amazing to see the support, spirit, and most of all love of all Brazoria County. We, Servicemen, often wonder if what we are doing is forgotten or even supported as we spend much time away. The Welcome Home hit right to my heart in saying that you DO support us and that we are not forgotten. Thank you again, and God Bless you, your families, and The United States of America.

At Mark’s going away party my photographer captured every moment from the time Mark realized what was happening to the very end when you all left. What a wonderful thing you did for three strangers, and helped heal my brother, a Vietnam Veteran. I don’t know how to thank all the members of the Brazoria County Cavalry. I got some great picutres of the Cavalry members. Their backs were so photogenic!!! Your jackets are awesome! Again, I thank the Brazoria County Cavarly from the bottom of my heart for making such a remarkably memorable day for my family.
