Maggy Patrik at ABC News reports on how the slugs over at Delta screwed our beloved military guys returning from overseas.
Members of U.S. Army Detachment 62 returned on Tuesday from an almost yearlong deployment in Afghanistan — and, to their surprise, were forced to pay $200 apiece out of their own pockets for additional baggage fees while traveling from Atlanta back to their base in Louisiana.
According to a video posted on YouTube of two soldiers aboard the Delta flight, their military orders made clear that they were authorized to carry four bags. Altogether the unit, made up of 34 soldiers, paid over $2,800 in baggage fees, all out of their own pockets.
