Great job! Looking forward to seeing the video of his reaction.

Get a couple of hidden video cameras to catch his reaction!
Should be priceless!
Nice work!

Anyhow my next posting should be a video of him pulling back the cover to his "new" car!

Just a bit about my Son Michael: He really seems to be learning a lot over there. I found this article about him and his buddy really getting into the MRAP's and he didn't say anything about it!

Very cool on you and the boy, Craig! Very cool.

WOW!

Looks good craig, I think your son will be pleased.

Does he have any idea you are doing this?

+1 looks like its fresh off the showroom floor!

Incredible!!

Seahawk 12-31-2011 09:24 AM

I can't, and like Art and many others here I have deployed like your son, think of a better welcome home present.

I simply can't

Craig, your gesture to your son is epic.

And please let him know how much his service means to many here.

WOW Craig,

Fabulous. Your son is very luck to have you as his father. I wish you and him a Happy New year.

azasadny 12-31-2011 10:58 AM

Craig,
You MUST video your son's reaction when he sees his car. I bet he won't even recognize it and think you bought him an entirely different car. What a great father you are! Please tell him that we are proud of him (and you)!! Happy New Year!

cgarr 12-31-2011 11:13 AM

We will have the The Cameras Rolling

He just got back on Feb 1st and we had to go right from the airport to get his car! He was very surprised:
