I always try to make a point to shake a soldier’s hand when I see him. Well, one day as I waited to pick my son up from school (we have to wait outside the doors, in the front of the building) and a a father was dressed in his fatigues waiting for his child. I shook his hand and thanked him for everything he does for us. The next week I saw him in civilian clothes and he was wearing a Che shirt. :( I was disheartened.
