Not for us, but for them; the guys who didn't get to cash in on their million-dollar flight education. We're the only ones that can speak for them now and when people thank us, they're really thanking them - don't you think?

Certainly, you are correct. It’s difficult to understand square’s motivation, or others who drive by the poor allegiant threads.. He clearly did cash in so to speak. In my opinion, if you are fortunate enough to be so lucky, then sit on the throne and enjoy. I don’t begrudge wealth. That position gives us goals. But, his statements come off as obtuse. Telling us to just quit. What is that?

As a side note, my family bears one star and I am the namesake. My service was relatively uneventful; I am of whole body and mind. I think I scored. So, I feel uneasy when I hear thanks.

As was mine uneventful - thank you for sharing that with us - I understand and agree.

For all you guys who think you don't deserve it, that's what makes you great.

You'll take your thank you and like it, along with a beer.

Cheers and best of luck, be safe out there

Isn't it Maury that likes to say something to the effect of "we're just an IT company that happens to fly airplanes"? I see that IT company is just as platinum standard as everything else they touch.
