Simple Acts Of Kindness By Kevin Aylward on Military Some people get it - military service is service to all of us. From News - The San Diego Union Tribune: DALLAS - Eight soldiers flying home from Iraq for two weeks of R&R flew in style instead of coach after first-class passengers offered to swap seats with them. "The soldiers were very, very happy, and the whole aircraft had a different feeling," flight attendant Lorrie Gammon told The Dallas Morning News in Thursday's editions. The June 29 seat-swap on American Airlines Flight 866 from Atlanta to Chicago started before boarding, when a businessman approached one of the soldiers and traded his seat. When the swapping was done, "the other two first-class passengers wanted to give up their seats, too, but they couldn't find any more soldiers," Gammon said. A simple "thanks" will do as well, but if you've got a first class seat, it's worth looking around for a soldier.
