Awesome ... thanks for sharing this heartwarming story. You may not know who he is, but God does; keep him in your prayers. It will be a gift that keeps on giving.

Your story gave me goose bumps and chills. It is so nice to hear a kind and loving story instead of all the negatives. He is truly a kind man and he will be remembered from the one above that is looking down.

Hope your Mom is feeling better and thank you for the great story.

I still have tears in my eyes-such chivalry is seen so seldom. He's my hero!

I like the idea of telling the television stations, maybe they can even track him down. Wonderful person.

Mom was resting comfortably at home last night, and yes the soldier was in my nightly prayers and will continue to be. Its nice to be able to share her story. I think the Readers Digest may be a great way to spread this story to others!
