Truly special, makes me special, serving a country, i think the rest feel the same way. Thank you. A humble reaction to a powerful project. See how a local woman makes sure our soldiers get the welcome home they deserve. It is a story you see enly on 9 only on 9, up next. The pope already planning his next trip over seas, see why it is so important he play a visit to one of our southern neighbors.

Only on 9, you may not realize that baltimore washington airport or bwi, good marshal airport receives more returning veterans than any airport in the nation. Most only passing few for a connecting flight home. Andrea roane shows us how one persons idea is transforming that. For captain cath y thorp, the mission is personal, her husband and 3 of her 4 children are on active duty. So when she noticed Service Members landing at bwi, rarely had anyone to welcome them back to the united states, she created Operation Welcome home maryland. It is so exciting to watch them come to the doors because they are not expecting anybody to be there. Veterans returning from over seas deployment never anticipated this. Thank you for your service. It was very emotional and exciting. Truly special, makes me feel special, especially serving the country. I thing the rest of the soldiers feel the same way. Thank you. Operation welcomehomemaryland is a realty because navy reservist, captain cathy thorp saw a need and came up with a solution. Sometimes i will have cameras going because they are so touched by it. Some come out and kiss the ground. Some of them come out in tears. Really nice because my family cant be here because i have 2 connecting flights. Since its creation in 2007 the group has welcomeed home more than 600,000 veterans. It still brings tears to my eyes. The Service Members are returning from over seas deployment, some directly from combat zones. Wasnt expecting it, fantastic. I appreciate it. Thank you. Many volunteers are veterans themselves, including those from the vietnam era. For me, it is very important because only kind of welcome i got in 1968 welcome home. Now the soldiers return to the warm embrace of fellow americans. I am proud that they are serving our country because there are a lot of people that dont. That take the country for granted, and our freedom for granted. It is a volunteer service, all these people have stepped up. I think that is pretty awesome. As surprised Service Members arrive to a heros welcome, soldiers watched intently from the upper deck at bwi. They were just shipping out. The dedication and passion of the countless volunteers is what keeps this organization growing. One is a man in a wheelchair who hires a College Student to drive him to the airport every week for as many flights as he can welcome home. Andrea mccairn, wusa 9. If you would like to volunteer to welcome home troops we have the information you need on our wusa 9 app. Some Service Members do have loved ones waiting so welcome home maryland volunteers have witnessed more than 50 engagements and even some veterans meeting their new borns for the first time.

The yellow weather alert day. Live look outside, 52, pretty nice for this time of year, really. Winds northnorthwest at 6 have calmed down and will become southerly ahead of the frontal boundary as we get into the Early Morning hours. Here is the storm, the storm that laid all the snow in the rockies and plain state and chicago and it will move through us.

Is this a make or break weekend . Big weekend for them, little piece of humble pie in new england. They could use a big victory against the saints, burgundy and gold looking to get back on the winning track and stay there. Coming up, the team talks about improving their run game. The midshipment reflect on their brothers and Alfred Morris has been a thousandyardrusher in first 3 seasons with washington, but that wont happen this year as the burgundy and golds rungame has gone south. Frank hammerhan has more. Despite the improved play of cousins, the red skins are still hanging their hat on what they wanted to do, running the football. The last 4 games have not been successful as the skins try to get back to focusing on that as they prepare for the new Orleans Saints sunday. Negative jay on offense as running game has done terrible the last 4 games. When you are down multiple scores, had running game isnt the first thing on your mind, you know, you want to get in the end zone, you want to get some scores, points on the score board. Your offense is much more dynamic and keep defenses guessing when you can run the football. So, we are not going to get away from the run game, we will continue to try to improve it and commit to it. Coach is saying he will stick with the 2headed monster of matt jones and veteran morris, Chris Thompson will be the 3rd down back. Thank you, frank. The midship men are enjoying the season, the quarterback about to beat an ncaa record and navy off to the best start in 11 years, ranked 20th in the country. The mids were hard to work on their practice field this veterans day, preparing for their next opponent but they did so on the reflection of why they are there. They are enjoying americas past time thanks to those who fight to keep us safe, a place where these players find themselves in the future. Men and women over seas putting their lives in harms way for us to come out and play the game we love. Not only do we have our players that will eventually serve but guys on the staff that have veterans. People that served in the fleet are coming back and sharingir the experiences with us, you know, molding us to better leaders.
