Dang ... best guess is Maine seceded again.

I don’t think there is an airport in the US that greets more GI’s than Bangor.

For years the Bangor Troop greeters have welcomed home tens of thousands of troops. Every flight. Day or night.

A couple years ago I was in the Bangor area on business. I checked with flight ops. There was an inbound troop flight due in at 3 AM. I drove over from my hotel in a mild snow storm. there were at least 30 people there to greet that plane. I’m 62, and I think I was the youngest there.

My compliments to you and those there.
