Christina and Grandma

I had just dropped a customer at SJC when I noticed a few SJPD cruisers, motorcycle handlebars, and a car all done up in red, white & blue. Could this be for John Kerry?

I parked and grabbed my camera. Just up the escalator from baggage claim I found a group of people with American flags and signs. Must be the spot.

As I stood there waiting for my photo op, I noticed how the others were dressed. Some holding bouquets of yellow roses. There was something, ‘wrong with this picture.’

I asked a lady, wearing a supporting our troops t-shirt, if she was waiting for John Kerry. Her eyes got big as she started to laugh. Turns out they were there to welcome home Navy Lt Christina Ortega.

Lt Christina Ortega returned from deployment to Iraq where she served as a PIO ( JAG) with the US Marines.
