Manager Called Over To Address What Veteran Is Doing At His Booth

The veteran with the gregarious smile, sitting alone at the Texas Roadhouse restaurant in Georgia, left an indelible impression on another patron dining across from him.  Most people walked by the friendly man, who wore a jacket covered in patriot patches, serving as a reminder of his pride of country and honorable service, but C. Sparks was moved to share his experience on a Facebook post.

In a restaurant full of people, the patient waiter took particular care of this veteran. He gave him all the time in the world to listen to his stories, laugh with him, and provide a little company for this guy who shouldn’t have to eat alone. It was beyond what’s expected of him as a waiter, but it was clear that he had deep respect and general compassion for this man.

Evidently, everyone seated in the veteran’s section felt the same way as Sparks, and everyone wanted to pay for this man’s dinner.

It’s moving to see that regardless of how many people ignore this man, there are more amazing Americans who recognize him for the hero he is. We need to watch out for our veterans and be kind to them. They are shouldering a lot of pain from war with what they have seen and experienced, all to defend our freedom and pay that tab for us.

Next time you see a vet out dining, find a way to pay it forward, thank him or her for serving our country and be willing to take some time to listen to their stories.
