I tried....But I got caught.

William, it is so nice to see a reaching hand to those who serve our country.

Bill...

It's all about letting them know that their service is appreciated.

I'm sure you did more than made their day, you probably made them feel appreciate more than they had for some time. Thanks for your kindness and gratitude!

Thanks for sharing this wonderful story. It's inspiring that such a small token of appreciaition has such a big impact. God Bless our men and women in uniform.

William:

We cannot do enough for our service men and women.  They are certainly underpaid for the job they do for all of us.

Bill, you are an inspiration to us all.  I would not have thought of doing that.

William......money, ice cream and the palaces of Kings come and go.......but people,... precious people, they are the real treasures and you are mining them.

Thank you

Nice gesture Bill, it's nice to hear of people doing random acts of kindness....especially for our service men and women.

Bill, Let me say thank you for your kindness to our service men and women.

What a loving and tangible tribute to some of those serving our country, Bill!

Bill, It's often the "little things" and gestures that we all most appreciate.  What a true act of kindness and something that these young men will always remember.  Sounds like you made some friends for life too...even better!

Bill, that was a nice thing to do.  Mya I add that it does not have to be sevice people that you are nice to.  there ae many people out there the deserve our gratitude.  I don't mean to take anything away from our soldiers...but you can be nice to others also!

I had a similar experience about a year ago.  I was having lunch with one of my lenders, and 6 or 7 soldiers had lunch at a table near us.  We bought their entire lunch, and thanked them for their service.  It was the right thing to do.

May I stand and Applaud you Bill and the fine heroes you so graciously saluted. Whether one agrees with a war those that go and courageously serve are heroes in my book.

When my brother returned from Nam he was given the finger and folks spit at him while he was hitchhiking home.

My nephew has 3 months to go on his current tour and I can't wait to salute this young man.

What a wonderful story. I hope others heard you call them heroes. Maybe it reminded them of our men and women who are there for us in the armed services. My nephew died in Iraq. He died a hero as far as I am concerned.

It makes you feel a bit choked up inside. The selfless act of putting your life on the line. "True AMERICAN HEROES"

I applaud your actions and hope that all of us would do the same in a similar situration

Bill - This is a terrific story, and I admire your actions for those guys.  Well done, sir!

Nice random act of kindness, we should all be so lucky to be able to do something like that.
