Some of the Vietnam vets getting home were greeted with choruses of "baby killers"!! Sad and confusing time.
We were flying to California 5 years ago around Christmas time. We made an "unscheduled" stop in Missouri. Picked up about 2 dozen military that were trying to make it home by the holidays. When the rest of the passengers realized what was happening, the whole plane gave them a standing O. I was proud to be a part of that.
