Lil Wayne and crew were onboard his private jet Saturday, already on the tarmac set to leave Indianapolis Airport when he spotted a military plane that just arrived taxiing next to him. Wayne told his pilot to bust a U and take him back to the airport. The pilot did and some members of the U.S. Marines got a big surprise.

Weezy hopped out the jet and personally greeted about 30 military personnel. Marine Staff Sgt. Robert Luther tells TMZ Weezy and his crew were extremely gracious and made their day.

Amanda Cooper Lickliter was also at the Airport to greet the service men with cookies and pizzas but laughingly admits on her Facebook page the food was hardly the highlight of their day. She snapped a pic and posted it with a caption that described her experience, noting how Wayne and his entourage were “friendly as hell. There was no press and no one to show off for…just a seemingly genuine act of respect.”
