You saw a guy get a flu shot in the VA clinic so you knew he was the real deal?

Did you ask him what group and battalion?

When he went through selection, the Q and SERE?

How he dealt with the Gs?

Iraq and Afghanistan?

Which firebase? VSO? Ruck or Halo team?

Hmmm...but he got a flu shot so I verified him...

Thanks for the story. I’ve run into a few real patriots over the years who were really down on their luck. They seldom ask for anything. Sometimes I’ve offered to help them out a bit (pay for a new battery), but they’ve almost always turned me down. Good people out there, always hoping their luck will change for the better.

“Pray for Trump and our homeless heroes like the Green Beret I met today.” Prayers to St. Rita, patron of impossible cases. The Lord hears everything and keeps notes.

Thank you for posting this and reminding me to pray for these men.

I was hoping you would direct me to a crowd-sourced fund, though, for this man. :(

May God watch over our brave fighting men.

I hope his luck changes - I am sure the conversation raised his morale.
