This is something that should happen a lot more frequently. In fact, if I had money and flew more often I would love to do this! American Airlines upgraded 6 marines to first class seating. Which is awesome - but it gets better. There were 13 soldiers flying home so 7 regular people gave up their first class seats so the marines could all fly home together with a little extra leg room and a sure knowledge that they are appreciated!

Good job America and Happy Veterans Day - there is still hope for us!
