The Fort Worth Chapter of Credit Unions is planning to Greet The Troops as they return home from Iraq on December 1st and 2nd. If you, or your credit union, would like to join Fort Worth Credit Union’s welcoming the men and women of our military for their service to our country let one of the chapter officers know of your plan to participate. To get the times each day of the returning flight you can call, 972-574-0392 each evening after 8:00 p.m. and get the expected flight time of the next days arriving flight. Be sure to call after 7:00 a.m. on the day of arrival to make sure the flight has not been delayed. (Last time one flight was delayed until after 4:00 p.m.!). The troops arrive at Terminal D, International Arrivals (gate 22). You may park directly across from the entrance. Parking passes are obtained from the USO as you arrive so there is no parking fee or charge to your toll tag.

If you did not participate with us before this is an experience you will not want to miss. Taking the time to welcome the men/women returning from the mid-east makes you feel good, makes you feel very patriotic, and the looks/smiles/warmth on the soldiers faces as they see us, get our hand shakes and thanks makes you glad you took time out of your busy schedules to let them know that we appreciate what they do and sacrifice from their families in their military duty. This is truly a function you will want to participate in.

Mark your calendars! Family, friends, and kids are welcome. Let us know if your credit union plans to participate, and if they are participating one day, or both days.
