<p>Army Staff Sgt. William Luchsinger (and South Elgin Firefighter) came home from IRAQ today after a 9 month long deployment and was greeted at the Des Plaines Oasis by some of his fellow South Elgin Firefighters and 2 South Police officers. He thought that was the extent of his greeting home until we got off at Rt. 31 and were greeted by the <a href="http://www.patriotguard.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Patriot Guard Riders</strong></a> in the Tyler Creek Forest Preserves. </p> <p>Once going through their flag ceremony, the procession continued and turned into a full blown parade when driving through the South Elgin Fire Station on State Street.</p> <p>I overheard Firefighter Luchsinger tell someone that he was fine until they drove through Station #1 and came out on the other side to his fellow firefighters applauding him, and people on the streets holding signs that said "Welcome Home Army SSG Luchsinger!"</p> http://elginet.smugmug.com/News-Media-Photos/2008-News-Media-Archives/Welcoming-home-Army-Staff-Sgt/DSCF8452/303702081_hbnhq-Ti.jpg http://elginet.smugmug.com/gallery/5051724_moLjT/ 2008-05-29T10:20:29Z Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
