Flying a fallen Hero for Memorial Day

Being a Travelers Aid Volunteer at JFK for ten years, I have experienced a few of these ceremonies. While reading Captain Aux's article, It got to me emotionally. Thank you Captain Aux, and maybe I will meet you one day going through JFK. It would be an honor to meet you. We must never forget the sacrifices our military does for us.
How do 17 people manage to Eject (thumb down) this post...?
How do 5 people manage to Thumbs up every single frequentbusinesstraveler post in the first 10 minutes....
Perhaps they don't like to read the reality of those who serve to give them the privilege of choosing thumbs down?
See The Movie... "Taking Chance" very good, very emotional..
On a recent flight from Seattle, as we landed into San Antonio we were told we were carrying the body of a soldier that was killed in Afghanistan, we were all asked to remain seated while they removed the casket from the plane at the gate. Usually everyone is in a rush to get off the plane, this time was different everyone remained seated sat silently while they removed this hero from the plane. It showed me how much people do care about our Military men & women who step up to the challenges to keep us free everyday.
This article seemed more focused on how much of a hero the blogger is than the subject. If you really cared you would have learned the things you mentioned at the start and promoted those instead of your blog.
You didn't learn his name? You had the manifest...from there you could have learned who...and from there you could have learned how, when, where and why he died to tell a real story...to me this article is disgusting.
