That's a great idea.

I was in Philadelphia Airport not long ago and noticed a young woman soldier searching for change to use at a pay phone and I offered her my cell phone. She called her mom to let her know she was on her way home.

She made my day.

Extremely well done, Sgt. Curtis! A caring heart and taking action to help. This is diplomacy at it's finest and puts the best face forward on the efforts of the US military. We are so lucky to have men and women like Sgt. Curtis and his family. And way to go, Wichita!!

James 2:16 KJV

And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?

Two things I remember about my Vietnam homecoming..

The pampered college students spitting on us, throwing things at us and the filthy signs they carried and things they yelled at us....

and

The business class folks when me and a Marine buddy (I hooked up with in SF) got on the plane and bumped two hippies off...

They clapped and cheered for us , booed the dirt bags and then bought us drink after drink.

They were all friendly and well wishing...

The gentleman I was fortunate enough to be seated next to...even offered to hold a job for me ..working for the Lord Buxton Wallet Company...(and I still had 8 months left on my hitch.

Reading this story reminded me again that the men and women in today's military really are for the most part... the cream of the crop and the Americans who support them the heart and soul of the nation.

imo

Anyone see this on World News Tonight? How pathetic, the MSM and Liberal Democrats aren't interested in the good news.

I was in uniform from 68 to 72 and I know what you're talking about although I was never spit on. I got free seats at Boston Garden a couple of times and once an Airline stewardess told me to move up to first class while I was traveling in my Class A's.

The business class folks you speak of were most likely Korean and WWII veterans. They did treat us with respect for the most part. They'd been there.

The pampered college students spitting on us, throwing things at us and the filthy signs they carried and things they yelled at us....

I saw this actually happen a month ago in Wellington, at the entrance to Te Papa (their equivalent of the Smithsonian). This mystified me at first, because the New Zealand military is not currently fighting anywhere. What the hippies were protesting, it turned out, was the presence of these very Kiwis cited here, rendering humanitarian aid in Afghanistan.

Did you notic that the more things change the more they stay the same?
