(http://www.bing.com/maps/?v=2&where1=VASSAR,%20Mich.&sty=h&form=msdate) — Army Staff Sgt. Travis Mills had  been a lot of places since losing his four limbs in Afghanistan. The one place  he hadn't been was where people knew him best.

He finally returned to his Michigan  hometown this week (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/49292480) — six months after the explosion that cost him his arms and  legs — to serve as the grand marshal of his old high school's homecoming  parade.
