U.S. Airways Flight Attendant Refuses To Hang Army Ranger's Jacket

U.S. Airways has found itself in a public relations firestorm after a flight attendant reportedly refused to allow an Army Ranger to hang his uniform jacket in a closet on the aircraft.

Fellow passengers say that during the flight from Portland, Oregon, to Charlotte, North Carolina, on Thursday, First Sgt. Albert Marle wanted to keep his Army uniform jacket from wrinkling and asked to hang it up, but the flight attendant flatly refused, saying that closet space was reserved for first-class passengers.

Cliff Autrey - a passenger on the flight who witnessed the harsh treatment of Sgt. Marle - joined Anna Kooiman on Fox and Friends Weekend this morning and explained that he tried to give up his first-class seat to the serviceman, but he and others were warned by the attendant not to intervene.
