While wearing a “Vietnam veteran” hat, an elderly man stopped at a restaurant for dinner. He noticed a table of younger men nearby but didn’t think much of it until the guys swarmed his table one by one, repeatedly disrupting his meal. Their conduct caught the attention of the entire restaurant as the veteran could only cry.
Lou Zezoff of Granite City, Illinois, went out to eat at a Cracker Barrel with his wife Annette while wearing his “US Navy Vietnam Veteran” cap. After being seated, Lou noticed five young men sitting at a nearby table. Little did he know, they noticed him and his hat too, and they were going to make this one evening he’d never forget.
After Lou and his wife ordered, the young men sprung into action. One of them came over and stood at Lou’s table. “I stood up,” Lou recalled as he came eyeball-to-eyeball with the guy. The young man threw out his hand, thrusting it in Lou’s direction. “I knew they were military by their haircuts — high and tight,” Lou said, explaining how he knew they were service members even though they weren’t in uniform.
