Soldier Pulls Over During Rain Storm To Salute Fallen Veteran

by Staff Writer 4 · March 29, 2017

While driving on a road in Killeen, Texas, a Fort Hood soldier noticed a funeral procession on the opposite side of the highway.

As he was passing by, the soldier, Kenneth Varnes  noticed a line of patrol cars and vehicles with American flags on them. As a soldier himself, he realized the funeral was for a fallen veteran and decided to pull off to the side of the road and get out of the car.

In the midst of a thunderstorm and pouring rain, Varnes stood beside his vehicle and saluted the fallen veteran until the final patrol car passed by.

Good man. :patriot:
“The way I see it, every time a man gets up in the morning he starts his life over. Sure, the bills are there to pay, and the job is there to do, but you don't have to stay in a pattern. You can always start over, saddle a fresh horse and take another trail.” ― Louis L'Amour
