What was the ration of shit?

Oh...wait...Welcum home Bill!

OK...now really. I swear I didn't know people had/have ill will towards our soldiers! OK...the war is sucky...but our soldiers are doing it for us...and I was under the assumption that everyone felt this way! I don't live under a rock or in a cave or anything...but I'm flabberghasted that this isn't the response of everyone on your return home! I'll defend our soldiers tooth and nail...even if I don't agree with the war and why it started! Who would think/say otherwise? I'm blown away by this!

Anyway...sorry for the rant Bill. I just want you to know that I, for one, am very proud of you and so appreciative of your efforts. I am glad you made it home to us safely...and I hope to see you round the boards and joining back in the fun that is Pixies!

I'm not too far from Willow Grove. So HEY my fellow Pennsylvanian! ^5!

Welcome back to Pixies, and home. Sorry to hear your greeting at the airport was less than warm - when you came back to the states did you connect through DFW? I'm guessing no, as I know they have created a wonderful USO lounge as well as have volunteers that are greeting each plane that contains servicemen to let them know we are thrilled with their service and pleased to see them back on our soil.

It's my understanding that troops come through two airports DFW and maybe Atlanta (?) before they connect on a flight to their home destination... volunteer groups in DFW have made it their belief that every soldier regarless of their ultimate destination should be celebrated as soon as they hit American soil.

And Lixy, I think, unfortunately, just as with Vietnam there are groups of people that do not support the war.. OR.. the troops that are just doing their jobs. As sad as it might be not everyone realizes that these men and women enlisted to serve their country and should be honored, even if they disagree with the administration's decision to fight a war.

Sorry to have clogged up your thread WildBill.
