Thank you. I missed that.

Thank you for posting that. Goes beyond any profits, FCM, or Medallion benefit discussions.

proud that delta still does this.

Thank you! Brought tears to my eyes also.
So sad to see this.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
My continued condolences to all the families who lose someone

Outstanding. There is also a great one on YouTube of a similar service provided by American Airlines at ORD and one on board a Delta 757 at LAX where you have the flight crew requesting everyone let the soldiers accompanying their fallen comrade off first and everyone else actually complies and stays seated

my continued condolences to the families. There's still a moving and touching beauty to this solemn scene. Thank you for posting.

I've been a pax on a flight with a deceased member of the military onboard, and a military sscort in the cabin. The crew handled it very gracefully and professionally. The passengers were similarly respectful. Very well handled.

I was in Atlanta with an outbound flight at the next gate that very day. Not only did the gate area quiet down but the concourse surrounding the gates did as well. Passengers respectfully lined the windows.
I have been on several flights during the conflicts with honor guards and flag draped coffins and the passengers have held their seats in silence. I have also been on flights with soldiers being recognized and applauded for keeping us safe at home.
I was also at LGA the evening we bombed Afghanistan and through the chaos of an airport in meltdown Delta got us home.
For all these little things Delta remains my airline of choice.

Folks,

I have removed several posts that were off topic. This is not OMNI and it would be greatly appreciated by the moderators that you stay on topic.
