Editor's note: The following is a photo shared by veteran Aaron Castro, who at the time of this photo was a Staff Sgt. with the Nevada Army National Guard, serving in the Middle East. Friends back home sent him issues of the Sun to keep him in touch with local issues. Above, he is holding the Dec. 5-7, 2006 edition of the Sun.
He writes, "this was taken in An Numaniyah, Iraq. I have to thank Linda Lindeman and the Humboldt Sun for sending me these reminders of home. For a brief moment while reading them, I felt like I was home. Saying 'thank you' is simply not enough for this, but thank you! Thank you for giving me a piece of home while I was deployed."
