Erik Childress, eFilmCritic.com Read all the Reviews "The Way We Get By" follows the lives of three troop greeters. Its in limited release now, but at the movie website you can request a screening of the film in your area. The reviews, both from professional reviewers and those I know who have seen the movie, are extremely positive. If you cant get to a screening, the movie will be shown on Veterans Day on public broadcasting. ?A story that needs to be told.? " John Rowan, VIETNAM VETERANS OF AMERICA ?The Way We Get By is a beautiful, powerful and inspiring film.? " Paul Rieckhoff, IRAQ & AFGHANISTAN VETERANS OF AMERICA [Video] Since the first Gulf War in 1991, a group of veterans and townspeople from the area have greeted every troop flight that arrives or departs from Bangor International Airport. Theyre so loyal to their mission that the airport set aside a permanent room for them. Ive been at the airport a couple of times when troop flights have arrived, and its a moving experience. Soldiers file in and the minute they enter the terminal, the troop greeters start applauding, shaking hands and hugging the troops. In the troop greeter room, soldiers are given access to snacks and free cell phones they can use to call loved ones. Although Ive never been a formal part of the troop greeting, I have taken the opportunity to shake a hand or clap for those who serve our country. Plug for the troop greeters: If youd like to donate to their cause, heres the link. Your donations pay for the snacks and amenities given to the soldiers. All of the greeters are volunteers.
