Fish Out of Water

Musings about life & travel from an East Coast native living on the Left Coast in the CA State Capitol since 2004 and now also spending time at a home-away-from-home in Evanston, IL. This fish has lived in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); & Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Day 228: Veteran's Day In Flight

During my flights yesterday, the crew recognized Veteran's Day and celebrated current and former members of the Armed Services with a lovely appreciation message, followed by applause from the rest of the passengers.  Much of the in-flight magazine for this month was also devoted to stories about Delta's work with veterans and other national initiatives to support veterans, primarily for transitioning to the civilian workforce.

I did have to stifle a laugh, however, when the flight attendants came through the cabin offering everyone a "Veteran's Day truffle."  I'm not sure that Lindor knows its truffles are now being used to honor and celebrate this particular holiday, at least on board Delta flights!
