Army specialist John Carney made it home to
Rogers from fighting in Iraq in time to be with his wife when she
gave birth to their son. He returns to Iraq on Thursday.
The 23-year-old Carney is a heavy equipment operator with the
239th Engineer Company of the 39th Infantry Brigade. He met his
wife, Rebecca Norton, at church and they were married in 2003.
The soldier said he spent his two-week break changing diapers
and bragging about his new son, John Andrew.
