Troops at DFW May 13 2011 

I live in DFW and they have people that volunteer to greet returning Military. We feel they deserve it.

This is how our troops should always be welcomed home

Thank you to all the volunteers at DFW when I arrived at that airport. You won't believe how much those greetings, warm welcome and thanks thrown out to us meant to me and a lot of my buddies. I truly felt like I was in a safe and welcoming place which was a stark contrast to where I was not even 14 hours before. That truly made my day and I will never forget it till the day I die. THANK YOU!

What a difference now compared what they had retiring from Vietnam. This show of thanks and solidarity will remain with the troops . We should always support our boys and girls in the forces...

with such videos I always have to think of the comrades who never came home again. We miss you💔

This is maybe the same day/week my husband came home through dallas after a full year deployed in Africa!! Thank you ALL who support our military and the families! ~Army Wife for Life~

This is exactly how every returning MILITARY person shoud be greeted as they come home!

As a DFW native for 41 years, I'm so proud of my hometown for doing this regularly, and just wish my Father's generation had gotten this welcome home from their service.

1968 I never got a welcome home. God Bless the American soldiers!

All the many times we have been in the DFW airport, we have never seen anything like this. .We did, however, one December give-up our seats so that a small group of Oregon National Guard people could fly home together for Christmas with their families. They would be going back on deployment after their Christmas leave. It was a small thing we could do for them, just a small way to show our appreciation for all they do for this country.

I was doing this before these kind of reactions became popular. It STILL never gets old.

Thank You and God Bless 0ur Vets & Country!

I want to say thank you to the people of DFW. When I came home from Iraq we stopped in DFW and they did the same for us in 2006.

Damn it Texas always has to show us how to honor the troops. Welcome home and enjoy your rest!

My unit was welcomed in a similar fashion. Incredible and overwhelming feeling of support.

OMG! I cried so much........ all these years later and I am sad basket of tears! WELCOME HOME EVERY TIME!!! ♥♥♥

In tears! Can't wait for my hubby to get home

one of the greatest videos i've ever seen. keep it up.

Im a vet, this is such a beautiful video, thank you so much

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE!!!!!!!!

God Bless them all. Thank You

My dad was one of the SEALs who died that year......i love you paps.

I remember walking through that exact hallway in 2011 returning from Afghanistan with the 4th BDE, 10th Mountain Div. (Ft. Polk, LA). I love the state and people of Texas!

Beautiful beautiful ,God Bless America

What a brilliant thing to be hold you can see these people LOVE their soldier's be proud of fighters for freedom Gid Bless all and their loved ones The greatest thing a South Africa can behold .

Wow. I went home on leave from Iraq in April 2009 and I went through Dallas. They were there for us too. It was amazing. This brings back some memories.

We should always salute and praise them for the work and bad conditions that they under went to keep us safe

Much love and respect from Brazil 🇺🇲🇧🇷🇺🇲🇧🇷🇺🇲🇧🇷❤️❤️❤️

These always make me cry...

Thank You

It always felt good seeing all of the people as we came back, day or night. What broke me was went a Vietnam Vet told me I was his hero. No battle, you are mine.

As a Vet thank you to all those who support us. It means the world. To to go get the tissues

This may have taken place 12 years ago but it really made me cry. God Bless our Military and thanks to each and everyone of you. God Bless and may he keep you safe where ever life takes you. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓

as a old army wife I know how they feel. My husband fought in the Korean War and Vietnam. He died of agent orange cancer.

When I was a flight controller for Ryan Int'l, we flew a lot of those flights, and there was nothing I loved more than after briefing the Captain, then telling the Onboard Troop Commander that I was able to eliminate the Canadian Tech Stop, and today's Leipzig-Dallas is a nonstop flight; you might want to give your welcoming committee a head's up; your new ETA is around 7am... I hated working flights eastbound down range, but I loved working westbounds coming home.

God bless America

I was legit crying in happyniss when i watched the video and proud of those who served in Iraq and Afghanistan

I remember these days. I felt like a celebrity in the airport. Everyone was cheering and clapping, and I turned around and no one was behind me. I was like whattttt? For me? Wow! One guy even offered me half of his sub, and insisted that I took it with me after I refused. But, that was the best damn sub I ever had. Cold cut trio from Subway. Ha ha!

Great show. You Americans know how to treat your service personnel. In my country, when I returned from Operations, we had to keep a low profile. We would never be treated will such gratitude.

TRILLIONEN THANKS TROOPER FOR YOUR SERVICE, RESPEKT FROM GERMANY ❤❤❤❤❤

Thank you all YOU ARE THE BESR WE LOVE YOU !!

This is how the strongest nation treats their heroes. so touching scene.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FIGHTING FOR OUR COUNTRIES.

Patriotism and Respect!

How amazing 💟💟💟

Imagine leaving home for a year or so without seeing your family 🤔mist be so hard for them😥😥

Respect

We love you salutations from the Iraqi Army, Air Hawks.❤

oh my god ...i salute ur love to ur nation...

These people are my heroes

Heroes coming Home. What a contrast between the "welcome home" the troops from Viet Nam returning home received, to our present troops.

Thank You Texas ... at least you get it. s/A 20 vet who still wonders if his service was worth it.....

So sweet!

Fantastic

Miss this America

God bless them all ,thank you Jesus

D. F. W. GREAT TO SEE THEM COME BACK

Thank everyone of you!!much love and respect to you and yours and to those of you who paid the ultimate sacrifice!!!

Respect from s.korea

Welcome home n ty

There's a hero in everybody's home!

I remember beign on a flight out of Milwaukee (Mitchell Int'l to Michigan) with guys that were from the Army I presume and they gave the pilot shit the whole way there until we landed (all in good fun naturally). After we touched down and stopped at the 1 of 2 gates...the pilot came on board for the 6 or 8 of us non-military people and told us "this was perhaps, the greatest and most memorable flight I've had in 35 years of flying...and as of today I'm retiring". I kid you not the flight was laughs the whole way from take off to touch down, and the pilot's shake at the end of the flight let me know...he knew when to end it ;) He was a Navy pilot and knew when to say his duty was done, he reached to shake my (13 year old hand) and I saluted him (I had 2 cousin in the military, one a Naval Officer on submarines and the other a flight instructor with the Air Force) this man earned it! His response was a salute, smile and a hug :P After telling him about my cousins he knew who the one was and actually was one of the guys who stopped at our place in their passing from the AF Academy to their stations for the night and thanked ME and my family for our hospitality. Military families respect military families liberal or not ya dig ;) (yes my family is hardcore liberal but i fall asleep knowing a .357 magnum keeps us safe at night :) )

PATRIOTIC COUNTRY🇺🇸 LOVE FROM FRANCE 🇫🇷

God I love Texas.

bonito de se ver

Coming home to that's priceless thank you for serving God's bless USA ✌️🇺🇲✌️🇺🇲✌️🇺🇲✌️🇺🇲✌️🇺🇲✌️

God bless u n america

WISH THAT YOU WERE ALL HOME AND SAFE,,,,, PLEASE GOD,, ONE DAY YOU WILL BE

super yaar

i love america.from Mizoram.north east india

this is fucking beautiful :')

In South Korea, this is an unimaginable situation. Korean soldiers are treated less and socially than guard dogs. worse than criminals.

After a year and a half in viet nam arrived home and there were many holding anti american flags and people yelling, "Baby Killers" at us, still in all, I was just so thankful to have made it home

God Bless America always makes me cry! Add soldiers to the mix and I'm a snotty, blubbering mess!

I feel jealous

👍👍👍👍👍👍

I hope this brings solace to all those veterans of the Vietnam War, who returned to their Land-of-Plenty, to be met by the spitting, most-spoiled generation!

my eyes are sweating for some reason

👏👏👏👏👏👏

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

This is why americans soldier's were the best in the world..

Hi! I am making a music video for a local band and was wondering if I can use some of your footage from these videos? I will credit the sources. Thank you!

Nice video but the music overwhelms it.

The feeling of being praised like this must feel better than sex
