Had a strange thing happen on the way home from Aruba Monday. First security searched a larger than normal amount of passengers boarding (not a problem with me) but when we got off in Boston we were greated by 4 TSA officers (still not really a problem but strange) never had tis before. Everyone getting off was asked name, place of residence, married or single, reason for going, place you stayed, length of time, passport and occupation. Then you go on your way but I noticed them drilling a couple at the end of the walkway.
We go to luggage pickup and there was around 8 Cops around the area. Never saw this, any thoughts?

If I had to hazard a guess, someone was trying to bring in something they shouldn't have . . I would not have liked being the one questioned.

Hmmm . . . I didn't read that there was a "welcome home" anywhere throughout that dialogue . . .
