The flight lands at ~ 930pm. *Special note: All Veterans will deboard the plane this takes some extra time for those who are in wheel chairs.Once all Veterans are off the plane we will parade down stairs to the airport lobby.
You have two options to welcome home our veterans:
1) Joint us near the airline ticket counters and clap and cheer as we come out at the end of the evening. There will be the AF Band of Flight and Young Marines/JROTC/Civil Air Patrol units out there as well. This is a great way to welcome our veterans back. We will be getting out there ~ roughly 1015pm.
