For too many soldiers returning from overseas, homecomings are being tarnished by foreclosure signs. From military families who have lost their homes due to loss of income, to those unlucky enough to accrue late fees with their homeowners association, servicemembers are finding scant relief from the effects of the recession.

But at least in the case of Jose Cordova Jr., an air traffic controller who served in the Army in Iraq and Afghanistan, there's still hope after foreclosure. By saving approximately $30,000 from his military wages, Cordova was able to buy back his parents' recently foreclosed Phoenix house, according to local news station ABC-15.
