I have been here at 2 AM and arrive like today in the afternoon, and these wonderful people never cease to impress me. No matter what time we get here there are at least 50 peopl lining the walkways cheering us home. With all the posts about whining, and the problems with whatever in this country; at least the good people of Maine keep good old American Patriotism alive. The rest of the country could learn from these people. 12 years of coming home from war and they still are here with no fail. Thank you Bangor, Maine.I am humbled by your post and sure puts things in perspective. Thank you for your service.

I had family that lived near Bangor, ME and have seen soliders arriving at that airport several times. It is a really nice gesture by the people of Bangor supporting and welcoming home the soliders that protect all of us. Thank you for your service.

Glad your back safely and now get some summer time on the water in those larger smallmouth reservoirs up there. Thank you as everyone says for your service.

Welcome home and thank you for your service. Enjoy!
