On my last Southwest flight (second leg from Portland, OR to Nashville) we got to 35,000 feet and the pilot came on the speaker and announced “I’ve turned off the seatbelt signs. We have four soldiers heading home from overseas sitting in the rear. Say hi to them when you can”.
Of course, taking our cue when the seatbelt lights went off, we all stood up and applauded. I saw grown men cry, including me.
OMG....sniff again!
