ALBANY, GA -- A local marine returned home to a very warm welcome, despite the cold conditions Tuesday.

Lance Corporal Michael Canter returned to Albany from a six-month deployment to Afghanistan. Canter is with the maintenance center and helped repair vehicles and worked security detail. He says he's glad to be back, although he won’t get to see his family in Indiana until January.

This was Canter's first deployment.
