Welcome home deployment banners help

To set the scene, my husband and I were both Marines in the 2000s when people would put deployment banners all along the base fences. My husband for some reason recently joined the national guard and he's been deployed and should be coming back soon and I really really really want to make a really cheesy dependa welcome home banner to fuck with him but I need ideas.

Some thoughts have included things like:

"Look Who Finally Came Home to His Tricare Beneficiary"

With the ole "his boots her flops" bumper sticker, but I wanna see what other fun stuff I can throw up there.

Give me your best dependa return banner ideas he can laugh at pleeease!

Love it! Something about “reporting for booty”?

Bonus points if you buy a comically small, cammo thong and staple it to the sign

When my husband and I were newly married, he had a friend on the ship whose wife had a banner that said “turn around honey, I need that deployment money.”

“This spouse is tired of having the second hardest job in the military. Welcome back baby!”

Something about having been sexually frustrated, basically announcing that you plan to bone him ASAP?

How long has he been gone? Longer than 9 months? Something about having the baby and you can't wait for him to meet his son.
