America's best are appreciated by those with common sense.
We are forever indebted to those who made sacrifices over the years, and do so today, while the Utopians ignore reality.
I too, will be making a similar trip from Iraq early next week for a holiday R & R. What a great story. What a great start to that soldiers visit home, God Bless all those on that flight for giving that soldier the respect that he deserves.
Merry Christmas to All.
