An airman from Lewis County has returned home after an eight month deployment to Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan.
Staff Sgt. Nathan Zornes was one of more than 300 airmen returning to Hill Air Force Base in Utah on May 10 to reunite with their families.
The first to greet SSgt. Zornes was daughter Jayla who ran to him to welcome him back.
Zornes’ job with the Air Force is to build munitions and maintain explosives.
His parents are Mary and Ronnie Hall. His wife is Katie and he has two sisters, Brandy (Jamie) Mitchell and Kayla (Dereck) Mustard.
Rounding out the family are three nieces, Natalie Mitchell, Olivia Mustard and Emmi Mustard; and a nephew, Jacob Mitchell.
