The wife of U.S. Army Sgt. David D. Shadowens displays a sign she made for his homecoming ceremony at the Army Aviation Support Facility 3, Peoria, Ill., Dec. 14, 2013. Sixty Illinois Army National Guard soldiers with the Peoria unit returned home from an 11-month deployment to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. The soldiers flew CH-47 Chinook helicopters to perform heavy helicopter air movement and air assault missions, including moving personnel and cargo across the battlefield at critical times.
