ī.They missed the time when they could buy sack lunchesĬ.They thought the sack lunches were too expensiveĭ.They thought the lunches on the plane tasted badģ.When the writer bought lunch for the soldiers. These soldiers were giving their all for our country.I could only give them a couple of meals.It seemed so little.ġ.The writer met the soldiers when he to Chicago.Ģ.The soldiers didn’t buy sack lunches because. I walked over to them and handed them $75."It will take you some time to reach the base.It will be about time for a sandwich.God Bless You."I said. Upon entering the terminal（航站楼）,I saw the soldiers gathering for their trip to their base. We landed in Chicago,I picked up my belongings.Waiting just inside the airplane door was a man who stopped me and put something in my shirt pocket.Another $25. Later I walked to the front of the plane so I could stretch my legs.A man who was seated about six rows in front of me reached out his hand,wanting to shake mine.He left another $25 in my hand. When he got to my row,he stopped and said,"I want to shake your hand.I was a soldier and I was a military（军队） pilot.Once,someone bought me a lunch.It was an act of kindness I never forgot."I was embarrassed when applause（掌声） was heard from all of the passengers. Soon after I returned to my seat,I saw the Flight Captain coming down the aisle. I went again to the back of the plane,heading for the restroom.A man stopped me."I saw what you did.I want to be part of it.Here,take this."He handed me $25. I looked around at the other soldiers.None were buying lunch.I walked to the back of the plane,and handed the flight attendant（服务人员）a $50 bill." Take a lunch to all those soldiers."Īfter we finished eating.
I put my carry-on in the luggage compartment(行李舱架),Īnd sat down in my seat.Just before take-off,a line of soldiers came down the aisle（过道） and filled all the empty seats.Īfter flying for about an hour,an announcement was made that sack lunch （午餐袋）were available for $5.As I reached for my wallet to buy one,I overheard the soldier ask his buddy if he planned to buy lunch."No ,that seems like a lot of money for just a sack lunch.I'll wait till we get to Chicago."His friend agreed.
