He is on his third tour of duty in Iraq. He returns to the war-torn country July 22."It's definitely going to fly by, but it's my job," said Conn, 30.

It is always good to help. I think that is cool that he takes his time for family and spends it helping his fellow buddies. We all must stick together.
