Our hero!!

We found out awhile back why Derek doesn't have to go back to Iraq this year, of why he was suddenly pulled off the roster. Derek's chief came up to him and told him that he was so upset when he saw how Matthias reacted when Derek left; Matthias was crying and screaming for his dad, that the chief told Derek that he would never want to have Matthias go through that again, that he immediatly pulled Derek off the roster. In fact, after the guys left, the chief went home and cried because of Matthias!!
So Matthias has been bumped up to our favorite child. hee-hee.......
