Heroes in sneakers

"I ran across this story today on CNN.com about a blind veteran of the Vietnam war who has been meeting each departing and arriving aircraft in and out of Hunter Army Airfield in Savannah, Georgia for the last four years.

I saw so many amazing volunteers this last five years. Just last month when I flew into Bangor, Maine there was a group of dedicated folks waiting to shake each of our hands as we passed into the terminal for a brief layover at 6 in the morning! They stood there with smiles on their faces and a hand shake for each bleary eyed soldier that passed by."
Armed and Curious
