It's an honor to live in a city that just invited over 200 military veterans to an all expense paid trip to Vegas. It's even more of a humbling feeling to work for a company that offered free flights around Las Vegas for these wounded vets.

They are staying at the Venetian Hotel, a five star hotel. They just met Wayne Newton prior to arriving at our facility by having lunch at his place. Must be a pretty big place. We flew almost 100 people today and another 100 tommorow.

The lobby full of the vets and their families.

The pilots and loaders that you see are volunteering their services for the day. They are working for free, it's the least we can do for keeping our freedom.
