Good Deed

Mom and Dad S were at a restaurant and noticed a gentleman with a child. The man had on his Air Force uniform. Dad motioned the waitress over and offered to pay the man's meal ticket. The waitress brought the ticket over. It was for .89. Dad asked why it was so small. The waitress said that the man had just brought the child in for some french fries. Dad took that ticket and then told the waitress to go over to the man and tell him to order anything on the menu and it was covered. With tears in her eyes she explained that it was her boyfriend and her son sitting there. The man ordered a breakfast and thanked mom and dad. Dad just indicated that he doesn't feel like he does enough for the men and women in the military.

Thought I would share this. This is what quiet service is all about.
