Morning Veteran

The group, of well, my age men sat drinking freshly brewed coffee at McDonald’s talking family, farming and a splash of politics. Typical for the early morning hours they were decked out in overalls. Plaid shirts and high work boots completed their wardrobe.

That’s when I noticed the Vietnam Veterans insignia em-blazed in bright orange letters on one of the men’s baseball caps. I didn’t waste time. I never do!

“Welcome home brother”, I said to the veteran hero. No sir, to me this Vet was no stranger.
