It is a small gesture of respect but major props to Super Bowl champion Derrick Coleman for giving up his 1st class seat to a Marine recently. . . .

In similar news, super cute actress Amy Adams, a military brat herself, did the same thing. . . .

Thanks for the post, echeese!  You know, such things do not mean much in the grand scheme of things, but they sure do mean a whole hell of a lot in one day of someone who does a whole lot for the rest of us when they do not have to be doing so.

That's really awesome. The airlines should do that for military for free anyways.
