Outstanding job of honoring a vet like the guy. I think many of todays kids and some adults forget that the many of the elderly men today fought in Korea or WWII and should be honored and respected and you did just that. To many it may have been a small thing but possibly to the couple it was a big deal.
My great uncle was on Iwa Jima and he had some stories to tell. Unfortunately he passed before I could really ever understand the magnitude of what when on there and in the south pacific and WWII. I am sure I would have appreciated it tons more
