I work for delta airlines making reservations.... i talk to many soldiers either unfortunately going to war... or wonderfully coming home and to a number of their family members. N no matter how many time I get to speek to one of them I ALWAYS ALWAYS thank them for what they are doing for all of here. And send them off with my blessing.
I have spoken to many family members that have lost someone in the war n I cry right along with them. The two hardest ones I got was an officer calling into make reservations for a widow n her 3 children to go to her fallen husbands memorial service in washington dc. The planes were full... actually over full... n he was escorting the family. The widow was 23 yrs old n her babies were 4..2..n an infant..there was no way I was not going to get them there.. I n my supers worked on that reservation for a couple of hours to make sure I could get all 4 on a plane n sitting together. She nn all the support she could get... then the other one... an officer called nn to get his soldier home one last time to see his family before he was shipped off to war in 4 days... again nothing... I cried n cried with these... we did get he soldier home... n I can only hope that he has made it back safely.. m I pray every day for the mom n her babies. Our men n women of service just do not get enough credit N I for one will be helping as much as i possible can... God bless all our service people
