A few years ago I was at a fast food stand at an airport. The person behind me was a soldier and I turned to him and asked if he was just coming home. He said he was. I smiled and thanked him for his service. When I got up to order I told the cashier that I wanted to pay for the soldier behind me. He was grateful and tried to demur, but I insisted. The person in front of me overheard that and insisted on paying for MY meal! The cashier in turn gave us both a service discount! Good feelings all around.
