Members of Moon's 911th Airlift Wing Return from Overseas Tours
Servicemen and their families re-unite after deployments keep them apartment for months.
"There it is!" someone murmured, pointing at a speck on the horizon.
Families watched in silence Wednesday as a steel-gray C-130 aircraft descended behind the rooftops of distant buildings, then re-emerged on the tarmac of the Air Force Reserve's 911th Airlift Wing base in Moon.
At the wing, 13 servicemen were re-united with their families after tours overseas, primarily in Afghanistan.

The reunion was an emotional one for many involved: Members of the 911th Airlift Wing replaced a British Royal Air Force unit that in March came under fire at Frankfurt International Airport in Germany. No casualties were reported in the attacks.
