This happened on May 31, 2012.
Not too many people paid attention.
So I thought I would tell about it again.
This is what happened-
During the course of my day today I asked an elderly man a question:
“Are you a veteran?”
He said “yes”.
I said “thank you”.
He said no one ever said that to him before.
Then-
He cried.
It’s not just that he’s a veteran. But an old man who lived a long time needing something. And maybe not even knowing it until that moment.
