Sgt. Javieliza Hammer is back in The Bronx after serving for the past eight months in Afghanistan.
"I don't have words to express how happy I am that I go to see my kids," said Hammer, who has three young children.
Hammer is happy to have her family reunited and says being in the military for six years has changed her for the better.
"I feel invincible," says Hammer, who believes she can now do anything she puts her mind to.
