Back in July, I was flying out of Bangor, ME and I had the honor of welcoming a group of soldiers in from Iraq, and then wishing them well as they left Bangor towards home with the
Maine Troop Greeters. This is an experience I doubt I'll ever forget. The site is well worth visiting and this group is worthy of support.

Just flew in from Atlanta—and boy are my arms tired!-—was my first thought when I saw your ping.
So glad you shared this story. Worked in Newark for many years—good to hear that some NJ folks still have class.

I had the same thoughts as did you re how many libs might have been on the plane. And, the flight from Atlanta at that time likely had mostly northeasterners, rather than Peach Staters...
With that being said, the applause was hearty rather than scattered and as I looked around essentially everyone was clapping.

... if the traitorous liberals in the congress believe that for a second, they do so at their own political peril. And the b#%&$@!ds want to throw away all their sacrifice by surrendering to the enemy.

I wonder if there were any anti-war libs on board who were just stewing in their seats... You can bet on it -- but who the hell cares about that rabble?

Thanks for sharing — I love stories like this. I’ve had the pleasure of being able to thank two Iraq vets so far, and what has always struck me about them was their humility and honor. God Bless them!
