earth to gop: Military families cheer end of Iraq war
Some military families in Tennessee say they're delighted to hear Friday's announcement that all troops will be leaving Iraq by the end of 2011.

"Happy. Happy. Absolutely happy. Ecstatic," said Staff Sgt. Michael Peckham, who is stationed at Ft. Campbell with the 101st Airborne.

Peckham served two deployments in Iraq and is recently back from Afghanistan.

"It's good for the families, and the soldiers that have families. They can stay back here and do some training here," Peckham said.
