By Dan Gorenstein on Tuesday, October 2, 2007.

Members from the 36-43rd company from the New Hampshire National Guard returned from Iraq earlier this month.

But before troops were released to family, friends and vacation, General Kenneth Clark reminded them of their one final duty.

"We take soldiers from mobilization to reintegration. And reintegration means back to being a citizen with your family. I say to you...the mission is not over...I can’t wait to see you in the middle of the week. We’ll talk some more."
