Thank you for serving our country...

This morning I was rushing through Penn Station and caught a glimpse of a woman approaching a young soldier and heard her say to him "Thank you for serving our country".

Her gesture moved me so much when I saw another solider as I was exiting by the escalators I was compelled to approach him and say, "Thank you for serving our country."

He looked at me with a boyish innocence and said "Thank you for your support sir." I walked away with a big lump in my throat.
