'All his family loves him deeply'
![]() Sonia Harrell of Woodbine, Georgia, salutes her son, Sgt. Raoul Montalvo, serving in Iraq. Hi, my name is Sonia Harrell. Mother of three boys, my two older sons are serving in the military. Danny is a sergeant in the U.S. Navy and for now he is safe, but my older son is a U.S. Marine. Sgt. Montalvo is serving in Iraq for the last 6 months, and we are so worried about him. Sometimes I cannot sleep waiting for a bad news, waiting for that knock on my door. This is his second trip to Iraq, I just want to let him know that all his family loves him deeply and we want him and the whole troops to be safe, please be careful and come home soon. |
