And for what is is worth, Amereican Airlines Admirals Clubs allow ID'd servicefolk in for free.

And when I am in one, no one in a service uniform will pay for their drink.

I have had the priviledge of setting up or wonderful military folk, except when others in the lounge beat me to it!

Can't watch it anymore. I'm out of tissues.
FWIW - I found it interesting that NBC network news ran it. Maybe Brian Williams is a closet patriot? But I have to say my local BOSTON NBC station showed it this AM and both talking heads admitted it made them tear up.

An amazing ad. It lasted a full minute though it seemed like only a few seconds went by. Doug posted on his thread that it was the Number 1 Superbowl ad this year.

Quite a different reception than the one I got when I came home from Nam after serving alongside the Swifties.

Don't know how I missed this, but I'm glad they are doing this again! Very cool! This will be a nice treat this spring break!
