This Young Amtrak Worker Showed Every American the Right Way to Treat a 99-Year-Old WWII Veteran

Late at night, in New York’s Penn Station, a beautiful thing happened.

A young Amtrak worker noticed an old man in the line, queueing for the last train out of New York. That man had a hat on which read: USN (United States Navy) Armed Services, WWII Veteran.

The 99-year-old man, whose name is Ed, is mostly deaf and had a sign around his neck stating so. He was quietly waiting on a train bound for his hometown of Baltimore.
