I flew into DFW on an AA flight, from Newark, that was carrying a soldier home to his family. It was an evening flight and we were requested to allow the military escort to deplane prior to our (biz class) departure.... spent a hour or so observing and, in our own little way, respecting the solum ceremony and final reunion. RIP

[@surginator713]

Did escort duty and flew through DFW, I have the utmost respect for the people that work at that airport. They perform their duties with pride and honor and paid the utmost respect to my fallen brother. They treated me with compassion, and they really helped me feel a bit of comfort and support as I neared our destination on the longes two hour flight of my life.

Can't believe no one silenced the airport. Even though there are people out of the country, there's no reason why they can silence it and pay our respect to those who died for us!

[@AnnaZnna]

Well one reason would be that it's an international airport and unfortunately they do often transport fallen soldiers home. Airports are updated minute by minute and it'd be impossible to halt activity for even 30 seconds. The PA systems just aren't wired to work that way. Besides, I think when you watch something like this happens, the noise around you fades for a bit and you realise that these fallen soldiers gave their life for our freedom. So - I guess the take away is are you acting in accordance to their sacrifice? This can mean multiple things and probably is a really heavy question for KZbin - but it's worth considering. Many good men and women died for our freedoms - are we using our freedom in a productive way that honors their sacrifice?

I know everything runs on a schedule, but there should be 10 min built into the schedule to allow this to happen with quietness. Everything should stop.

[@josephbennett3482]

Unfortunately airports cannot stop from daily services because everything has to be in constant motion , the only time airports come to a standstill is when the POTUS is arriving or departing then that is the only time when everyone is unable to move anywhere due to the safety of the President. Even though there is a fallen soldier being moved out on the apron the passenger boarding announcements have to continue because other flights cannot be held back from departure cause that would screw up the airlines worldwide especially the inbound landing flights.

[@rodneyjordan6745]

Joseph, I had already stated that "I know everything runs on a schedule." Your comment gave nothing most folks don't already know. The airlines know days in advance this is going to happen. SO there's that 10 minutes. They can set everything back 10 minutes, days in advance, so long as they are aware of the situation.

[@danmilosevich]

@@rodneyjordan6745 the airline's don't know days in advance. The airlines don't even know if they will get a body. It works on next scheduled flight to the destination needed and the origin may not be closest airport as the destination may not be serviced by the closest airport.

[@Gada947]

And the fact that sometimes the people in the airport don’t even care about a dead soldier who fought for their rights and freedom is beyond me.

[@Beezlie727]

Cut 'em some slack. We couldn't see what was going on in the terminal. The P.A. announcement likely originated in a different part of the terminal. As you saw when the camera zoomed out they weren't all that near the terminal. If nobody thought to speak up it could've gone largely unnoticed. Give a little slack is all.

I hated doing military funerals when I was on active duty. I did 2 during my service luckily this was peace time during the 80s. I was fortunate that none of my soldiers got killed during my 3 times in Iraq later. Otherwise the circumstances of escorting the body back home to their families would be very painful for me personally. I am very blessed that they listened and did everything I told them in combat which sometimes included risking their lives and shot very well. I got very lucky to have to never explain why I have failed and one of their sons have died. I am proud that all my soldiers till this day are still alive and few have stayed on and learned the stuff I have taught them. I am very proud of my platoon.

8 days ago as of tonight my fiancee's brother took his own life while at Ft. Benning, GA for his Officer training and while working on becoming a US Army Ranger, an elite soldier. He seemed to have always been fine but must have had some PTSD along with other issues. It sucks. Last night was the prayer service and today at the actual service I was an honorary pallbearer. Wednesday at 5:30 we will get his body in Omaha. I am hoping that I see civilians and soldiers alike saluting him. We all already miss 2nd Lieutenant Adam B. Larson so much. He was quite the person, and a great one at that. In less than 2 years I have had a sudden cardiac arrest with a coma, my fiancee's dad died unexpectedly, and now her brother has been lost to the tragedy of suicide. So I am taking some time off to make sure my girl is okay. I cannot understand how my girl and her family must feel if, the would-have-been brother-in-law of Adam, can hardly keep composure at times. Sadly, Adam also leaves behind a wife and a 3 year-old cute little boy. Really hard to make sense of a situation with countless questions and zero answers...
