Thank You

This past weekend I flew in and out of the airport in Oklahoma City. While I was waiting for my departure, on three occasions U.S. Military troops arrived at the airport. The people waiting in the terminal stood and stopped and applauded until the last of the soldiers made it through the exit. It was the most amazing experience to be part of this "thank you" to our military. I am not an overly sentimental person but I had to flight back the tears. Moments like this makes you feel truly proud to be an America.
