She Sees Soldier Sitting On Rural Road, Stunned By What He’s Doing
By Timfly
A woman was stuck at a stoplight on Friday afternoon in Kansas, when she looked up from the wheel right in time to see a soldier sitting on a bench in the distance. With not many other drivers around, she pulled over and watched in amazement at what she caught him doing.
Tammra Bose said she was driving alone through Topeka when the soldier caught her eye. Had she not been stuck at the light at that exact moment, she likely would have missed the scene, since she would have passed by the spot before the man dressed in fatigues made it his perch for a specific reason.

The witness told WIBW that she saw the soldier pull over on the ramp and quickly jump out of his car. Confused by why he took the sudden action, she waited to see where he was headed. That’s when he walked right up to a bench surrounded with all of one man’s possessions, and the soldier took a seat. Across from him was a homeless man, sitting alone on an upside-down bucket.

Bose, was so moved she decided that everything else could wait as she sat in awe of this roadside compassion. The soldier simply talked with the man and made him feel like he had a friend, after he had probably spent all day feeling anonymous to each passerby too busy to even look in his direction or acknowledge he was there.
Bose quickly snapped a picture of the heartwarming scene. She felt it was important to share this with the world so everyone could see that our fighters are not only fierce defenders of our freedom, but they hold a deep compassion for their fellow citizens of this great country.
“I would love for the world to see this picture because it is worth more than a thousand words. It is so heartwarming,” she told the news station. “I thought it was nice of the soldier to get out of his car and go talk to the man.”
His actions are a reminder that we all can spare a few minutes in a day to show someone who needs it that you care. Nothing else mattered in that moment, except for this homeless man to the soldier, who has respect for Americans and knows that nobody should be left behind.
