Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point Images

Jun 1, 2011

Sgt. Judy Hunziker, left, a maintenance administration clerk with Marine Attack Squadron 513, and her brother U.S. Army Sgt. George Hunziker, an infantryman with 2nd Brigade, 4th Infantry Division, stand together at the boardwalk in Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, June 1. The last time the two saw each other was on pre-deployment leave in Colorado Springs, Colo. The two were to meet at Kandahar a month and a half later. “I’ve always joked that if I saw my brother here, that I didn’t care who was in front of me, I’d push them out of my way,” she said. “It was overwhelming, seeing a face I saw every day growing up, in a country a world away. It felt like a piece of home.”
