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?

As a pilot I have flown fallen Sailors and Marines on their journey home. We, as a crew, always instructed the passengers to remain seated until the family or escort was off the plane and the cockpit crew followed them. The cabin crew had to remain in place. We helped form the reception line. Often passengers would show their respect.
You cannot order common sense or respect. Occasionally a "disrespectful" passenger was "addressed" by other passengers.

Probably shouldn’t say what my reaction would be. It would be in support of the family and all of those who have served!

I would have to agree with the comments about responding in a less than friendly manner with the possibility of being sent to jail. I am Vietnam Vet and there are some things that JUST have to be respected. It has nothing to do with when or where or why. They gave their life for their country and earned and deserve the respect of everyone.

I would be perfectly fine with that and as I leave the plane I would pay my respect as well

I would tell them to shut the f##k up and if they voiced objection, I would get up and stand right next to them giving them the best military glare I could muster.

Shut up, this family's sacrifice is why you are free to speak like this and be rude, but there will be consequences when I get off the plane

The person/people that boo'd the family should be told that they're not allowed to fly with them any more because of their disrespectful conduct.

There's not a chance I'm not knocking teeth out...I had my own horror story when I got home from Iraq... I'm rocking someone to sleep on the plane

It is hard to believe that people have sunken so low. I would have asked them what the Hell was wrong with them and remind them they were there because someone gave their life so they could.

I honestly would probably do a whole lot more than tell them to shut up and it would more than likely land me in jail truth be told…..
