Applause at New Orleans airport

I was sitting at New Orleans' Armstrong International Airport and reading a book, when all of a sudden spontaneous applause started to rise from somewhere. It was rather strange as I was not able to see anything. Maybe some famous film stars arriving?! Or a popular politician or rock band? But no: it was soldiers arriving. They were easy to recognize in their "desert uniform". People were applauding and tapping onto their shoulders.

Naturelich, I was rather surprised...
