A disabled Army veteran was reportedly not allowed to be aboard a plane last week in Virginia because she uses a walker.
Kathleen Wood told MyFoxBoston.com she was not allowed to board a shuttle at Reagan National Airport in Virginia last week as she returned to Walpole, Mass., from a vacation in Florida. Wood and her husband had to change flights in Virginia and had just 30 minutes to do so.
