It is a solemn evening in Detroit.
As we landed, our Pilot came on the overhead and ask us to please sit patiently while they escorted a fallen soldier's body off of our aircraft.
Several of us watched in honor as they proceeded to escort him off of the plane and onward towards his final journey home.
The sun was setting beautifully in the background and our hearts were broken.
Thank you to the brave serviceman or woman who committed everything for us.
Thank you for your Service.
Thank you for your Courage.
And we thank your family for their sacrifice. The ultimate sacrifice.
Sending out my woefully inadequate condolences and prayers.
Watching a simple casket as it was draped with the American Flag took our collective breath away. For several minutes we were all single minded, focused on honoring this Hero.
We should always remember to stop and think and be grateful.
Godspeed, Brave Soldier.
