    Hundreds of people packed Meadows Field Airport to welcome back a local Marine who was seriously injured while serving in Afghanistan. Since losing his legs from a road side bomb explosion seven months ago, Lance Corporal Joshua Brubaker has been at Walter Reed recovering. He's been far away from his loved ones until now. Brubaker knew his loved ones would be waiting to greet him at Meadows Field Airport. "It feels good man, I mean overwhelming actually," he said.
