Daddy!' and slid off the chair," said Marie. "There wasn't a dry eye in the house." During the school year, Marie's class had been pen pals with Terrance and his troop and sent them care packages. During the Skype call, the class asked Terrance, who is going on his third year of service, about his duties and how it feels to serve his country, and he showed them a battle helicopter.At home, Terrance is stationed in Ronkonkoma near Long Island MacArthur Airport, where he keeps UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters for civilian emergencies.
