    Re; Air marshals - Old Problem.
    In ‘71 on a trip from Frankfurt to Karachi on a PanAm ‘47, there were 3 men of non-indian origin.
    Guess the sky marshals.

    Air Marshals- Old problem? Well Dad, hope you’re on the next plane hijacked by terrorists that is NOT protected by air marshals. And, the Air Marshals which were on your plane from Frankfurt would not be American Air Marshals- that flight would have been covered by German Marshals. If you are going to criticize the program, at least get your facts straight.
    On Air Marshals being easy to spot, maybe you should log your complaint with the DHS who establishes the dress code guidelines. My husband and his co-workers operate under the codes they are forced to adhere to, it certainly is not their decision to be so easily “identifiable”. Do the Air Marshals and families of Marshals a favor, contact DHS with your criticisms and if you are on a flight and think you can “pick out the Marshals” keep it to yourself!
