I have to share. Tears ran down my cheeks as I walked to my departing gate at the Phoenix airport. There ahead of me were at least 25 World War II Veterans, men and women, on a Honor Flight to Washington DC to see, many for the first time, the memorial to those who lost their lives during WWII. As Southwest employees and Honor Flight volunteers escorted the veterans to their departing gate, everyone in the terminal stood, giving cheers, ovations and thank yous to each passing vet for their service. The men so reminded me of my WWII Veteran father, and like my dad, each full of gratitude for the recognition...truly, The Greatest Generation.
