Military charter flights are the most pleasurable flights for me to work. They are so kind, respectful, and grateful for everything I do. The verbal exchanges with them are so sweet and fun.

The physical and mental challenges that they must face just blow my mind. I have such great respect for these special angels that protect my freedom every single day.

Green Means “Go……To A New Hotel”
