Dozens of cameras captured last moments before the yearlong separation: a young family posing with their infant son, a father bouncing his little one on his hip, parents and adult children exchanging hugs.

Many people wiped away tears from red-rimmed eyes. "Watch out for him, OK?" a woman in uniform said as she left a small boy with another adult. As the soldiers fell into formation for a roll call, families began to line up by the bus that their loved one would board. "We love you!" shouted a group waving at one bus as the soldiers boarded. The crowd wildly waved flags and clapped as the buses began to roll out of the parking lot.

Catherine and Charles Giles of Staunton watched as the bus carrying their son, Sgt. 1st Class Gerald Giles, pulled away. They planned to help look after the wife and two children who were left behind during the next year. "He felt that this was his job," Catherine Giles said of her son's commitment to the cause. "I just told him before he left that he should be careful and come home safe," Charles Giles said.

Farewell Continued from the front page appreciate the soldiers a whole lot more." "My only prayer is that the ones I see getting on the bus will be the same ones getting back off when they all get home," bus driver Warren Knott said. During the ceremony, a band played patriotic songs, and a line of local, state and military dignitaries thanked the soldiers for their service and promised to help families left at home. "I'll do everything in my power to ensure that they're provided with everything that they need," said Del. Chris Saxman, R-Staunton. The brigade's commanding officer, Col.

William Phillips, remarked about the training the soldiers completed in just two short months since being called to active duty. "The bugle has sounded and you have all answered the call," Phillips said. "You have already exceeded my expectations with what you have accomplished so far. No commander before me and no commander after me will ever be as proud as I am of you today. Ever forward." The ceremony ended with drumbeats and a retiring of the flags brought out for display, and families went out THE SKY Warmer with plenty of sunshine.
