A homecoming of a different sort in Schuylkill County.
After a year overseas, friends and family celebrated the return of a soldier from Schuylkill Haven.
Specialist Kyleigh Rauenzahn, received a hero's welcome yesterday.
Rauenzahn is a member of an MP company based out of Willow Grove.
She was in Afghanistan doing detainee operations.
The soldier tells us, it was a nice surprise to come home to such a warm welcome.
""Very nice to see everybody, it's always nice when you get support especially for having not everyone appreciate what we do, so it's good to see people that do."
Now that she's home, the soldier plans to go back to school for her bachelor's degree.
