So 34 troops flying home from Afghanistan via Delta on Tuesday say they were forced to fork over $2,800 of their own money because the airline said they were carrying too many bags home from combat. Made a nifty little video about it mid-flight, complete with a barf-bag signoff. Gotta love their video-firing-for-effect (indirect fire that gets the job done), and also gotta believe this charge will be KIA by day’s end.

UPDATE: They reversed course before dinner…
