That's the third highest medal for combat valor. A true hero in every sense of the word.

What about all the dedicated good people at Delta. Should we just make this airline go out of business because of this incident. Geez people get a grip, make them deal with this issue and move on. Some of you patriotic sorts that would worship anything American now want to do this airline in because of a few peoples ignorance. Talk about being hateful!

I am disgusted by the arrogance reported and the ignorant, behavior of that Delta team. I honor that young Marine and appreciate our veterans and current military staff who protect, serve and honor our country. Delta, I hope this in some way puts you out of business.

Its amazing how human stupidity and lack of sensitivity can take what might have been an uplifting holiday story and make it a tale of shame and ingratitude by the airline staff. Folks, this world is what we make it it. We are all in it together - none of us gets out alive - its all about how we travel the road together. God bless this young man. 99% of all Americans love and support our men and women in uniform without whom none of us would enjoy the freedoms we so callously take for granted.
