What a welcome home for this fallen warrior. Such a warm welcome for him and his family on his arrival. I'm happy that his family has him back in the U.S. and can now have some peace of mind and closure. Thank you for your service Hero and RIP. Salutes

I think it is tremendous that MSG Holt's Widow was able to witness his return home.
Kudos to the police officers for doing what they did. The police have been maligned a lot lately, but this shows just how good these important servants of the people are.
