MAINE TROOP GREETERS

Caught this yesterday, there will be a documentary airing on Nov. 11, Veteran's Day on PBS, "The Maine Troop Greeters". The pieces I saw show that it is a dedicated group of three seniors that show up every chance they can to say hello and goodbye to our troops.
Choked me up already.

I know of one of these groups in Dallas Tx. They meet every group returning or leaving the airport. I met them when I went to Dallas to pick up my daughter (Capt. Army) They are a wonderful group and insisted I take a pass which gave me free parking. I told them my daughter was just comming in from FL. She had been back from Afganistan for about a month but they said that did not matter she was serving her country when she was over there so no one picking her up should have to pay for parking when they came to pick her up. If I lived in Dallas I would join this group and be with them to meet all the planes
