AIRPORT SECURITY - Notes

CDG AIRPORT, PARIS FRANCE
     As I had polio when I was a child I wear leg braces of one form or another. I also have a vascular graft (Dacron) in my chest. The buzzers go off a good deal at security. I carry a card, but I almost always must submit to a wanding or a full pat down. I am used to it.
     I see others at airport security being very upset by being held up for a few minutes. Not me. I do what I have to do and welcome the sniffer dogs which I think are wonderful.
     I hold a grudge against guy who put a bomb in his shoe, although at my age I am not required to remove my shoes. But, I am glad that everyone else on the plane has had to go through security, It makes me safer. My going through security makes others safer.
     Now a word about masking and doing what the flight attendants tell you to do. Actually, two words: "do it".
