ALBANY, GA (WALB) –  Five contract workers from MCLB Albany returned home from Iraq Friday. 

The base mechanics arrived at the Albany airport just after 10:00AM.  The men spent nearly a year providing maintenance on Mine Resistant-Ambush Protected vehicles in Iraq and Kuwait.   

They were glad to get back home today and said the work was rewarding.

Keith Taylor says he found out just last week that a man he worked with overseas was his cousin. Their deployments ranged from 3 to 11 months.
