Third Cousin Serving in Iraq

My first cousin, Mary Ann, who lives in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, sent me a picture of Clayton "Clay," shown here in the middle with his comrades, serving in Iraq. Clay has been in the U. S. Army since September 11, 2007 and in Iraq since March 2008. He came home last October 25 and went back November 25 and should be going to Hawaii soon. He is the fourth child of my second cousin, Karla, who lives in Wisconsin. His siblings are Mandi, David Kagle, Ellen, Clayton (himself), Ben, Jonathan, Josiah, Abe, Caleb, Nathaniel, Gabriel, Timothy, and Noah Samuel. As you can see, he comes from a very large family. We are so proud of Clay and wish him well and to have a safe return home. Thank you Clay and for all the servicemen serving our great country! May God Bless You All!
