ALBANY, GA -- Two civilian marines returned home early Wednesday evening after spending six months in Kuwait.

Ronald Parrish is coming home for good and Kenneth Henderson is home for a few weeks before returning back to work. While overseas, Henderson says he worked on repairing and building armored vehicles.

After he arrived in Albany, he knew exactly what he was going to do.

"Food! We're going to go out to eat. I don't know where yet. Is Logan’s open yet? I'm going to Logan’s!" says Henderson

He says even though he's only back in Georgia for a few weeks, he says it feels really good to be home.
