Gaylene Ramos reports that her son, Philip Ramos, got a little taste of home with his turkey on Thanksgiving. The younger Ramos is stationed a little south of Baghdad.
"Philip got to eat with Robbie Bernasconi (of Escalon)," Ramos said. "And he works with a lieutenant whose parents own Bear Photography in Modesto."
