A Teenager’s Words to a 94-Year-Old World War II Vet in a Burger King Nearly Moved One Customer to Tears

A Missouri woman was in line at a Burger King over the weekend when she witnessed something that moved her so much she said she “almost cried.”

Tina Readus of Cape Girardeau wrote on her Facebook page that an older man was in front of her and her mother Saturday when a young employee came from the back and extended his hand toward the man.

The older man — wearing a cap indicating he’s a military veteran — tried handing the employee a coupon, but the young guy said, ”Oh no, I just want to shake your hand and thank you for your service and for my freedom in our beautiful country.”

The young man's parents should be very proud of him. It's great to see some parents still raise their children to be respectful and kind to others.
