Marilyn Putnam of Shelby sent in the pictures of her nephew, SRMSG Dennis Pearson and his son, Sgt. Marcos Pearson. Father and son served in Iraq at the same time this summer.
“With Veterans day approaching, I wanted to thank them for serving for our country,” wrote Ms. Putnam.
Marcos is serving his third tour in Iraq and will be home the last day of November for a two week leave, said his grandmother, Delores Pearson.
Dennis came home from Iraq in September and serves as supervisor of command post at Scott Air Force Base in Illinois.
The pictures that Ms. Putnam shared were made on Marcos’ birthday, Aug. 3, 2007.“We were so glad that Dennis got to go over and see Marcos on his birthday,” Ms. Pearson said.
Dennis has served in the military since he graduated from Crest High School in 1985.
