How would you react if you were on a flight where a family was boo'd for being allowed off the plane first to receive their soldier's body?

Say it ain’t so……….how could anyone be such an ass wipe ? To be honest, I don’t know what I might do, but I certainly would not stand by and let a turd disrespect a fallen service member and the family.

Interesting, I wonder what announcement was made by Flight Crew, I flew for 12 years every week, majority of Americans are always respectful of military and gold star families

I'm sure I would get in trouble for whatever I said because I certainly wouldn't agree with that kind of action... So disturbing the disrespect that soldiers and veterans get.. How would it be for all those who disrespect us to take all their freedoms away and send them to another country...

Biggest problem we have today is the media and not getting the whole story and if it’s even true in the first place. That being said if it the truth let’s say I’m glade I was not there as I’m sure I would have offended and traumatized Several people.

I'd say, "Sir, please be respectful and quiet while the grieving parents pass by." If he answers in any negative way or tone or continues booing I'd say, "Sir, I'll see you outside!
If the booing passenger is a female, I'd say, "Ma'am, you are being disrespectful, please show some dignity for a few moments." If she continued, I'd sit back down in disgust.

I would address them with my knife and tell them in my best of command voice "You sit down and Shut the Fuck Up!"

I know how I would feel and how I want to address that individual/s that booed the family. Which would've been with a knife hand cocked, standing in a position of authority making it so those individual/s couldn't stand up, and commence to give them an ass chewing at an octave just loud enough in a 6 foot radius, sounding like I was going to rip their heads off. Then ask permission if I could stand with the family as their loved one exited the plane and placed for the next ride in their journey.
Now the professional SFC, senior NCO would maintain his military bearing. remain calm, go up to the individual reaching out to shake his hand, grasping it like i was going for crushing every single bone, introduce myself, then clearly state What a disappointment he must be to his mother. I bet she's real proud of your ignorant demonstration to the family of a Soldier killed in combat. Then give him a nice nudge back to his seat. Walk to the airline attendant to see if I could go down to honor the fallen Soldier.
But who knows until the situation presents itself.

Would be super difficult to take the high road. Maybe clap for them then tell the ones booing to f#%k off.
