Hello all,

Today I was looking in a book on flying "space available" on military
aircraft.  According to the info in the book, military retirees can do this
and they can bring along their "service dog".  The thing that struck me
was, it said that if you need an attendant/assistant, they are not allowed
to fly with you.  Just for info, some of these flights are "medevac"
flights, so likely would have a nurse and medical corpmen abourd.

Interesting "service dog" O.K., but not an attendant.  Discrimination????

Pete
