A heavy sugar bowl props up his camera because his hands shake.
He sits alone in the morning light. Fifty years ago, he served in Vietnam. He survived the wet heat and the constant noise of that place. Now, those loud days are long gone, replaced by the low hum of the refrigerator.
He is one of our retired American veterans. He came back to a quiet life. He does not ask for much, just a few moments of your time while he sits at his kitchen table.
Play the clip again and look closely at his face just before the ask. Look at how steady his gaze is even when his hands are not. He only wants to know someone is out there.
He endured the great distance and the long, slow hours of a war half a century ago. Today, the hard part is simply the silence of an empty room.
We can show him that he is not forgotten as he sits by his window. Tap that button to follow along and show him we still stand with our American veterans. 🫡
