I’ll never forget the time I was 17 and almost out of gas. I made it to a gas station, but I only had like a dollar in change in my car and needed to make it home. The guy behind me in line gave the cashier five dollars to add to my one dollar... it was such a small thing for him, but it’s stuck with me over ten years. I kept thanking him and he just said “it’s not big deal.

Not all heroes wear capes, what a crock of shit, how is he a hero?? He bought them meal for a couple of kids, many many people do stuff like that everyday but the fact that he has a uniform on makes it any more special?? No it doesn't make him any more special!!!!
@@Clark1967 you dumb or what ? Yes it might be only two children but he helped them when no-one else did ,also that uniform you're referring to ,is not just a uniform . It's people you should respect ,cause these people keep you safe and protect you ,when you're on your phone and talk shit about them .
@@georgiam.3957 I was in the military for 26 years, and I think it's a crock of shit the way so many guys walk around with their chest stuck out wearing the uniform. they walk around wearing the uniform expecting praise from everybody around them. There is a time and place to wear the uniform, and it's not when you're walking around town. And how do you know this particular soldier is keeping me safe? Half of these people that go around wearing the uniform all day have never even seen battle. By the way I was in and served during the Gulf war. I've seen action son, and I don't feel the need to walk around with my uniform on expecting praise from everybody, I do all my donations in charity work anonymously as it should be.

War. War comes in many shapes and forms so do what we can to help our armed forces are taught to combat those who would cause war for their own selfish needs, but sometimes the best war to fight against war is an act of kindness which no matter how big and important or small and insignificant inspires the potential to cause change for the better. This video of this extraordinary man living up to his sworn duty to help people no matter what race, nationality, and religion will have truly implanted a seed that will eventually spread to inspire others to pass the message that I too will spread one way or another.
Can we just commend this man for his actions. And the children, for their legit hustle. Support them, when they do this, so they dont sell drugs, instead.
@@barbaraturner8129 I think hes just making a point not all those in poverty end up selling drugs and gang banging they work and try hard to do the right hustle and go unnoticed.
Come on man! It was a great act of kindness, but that's a bit much. Meatal of honor is reserved for great sacrifices. We are all called to love one another, not for metals here on earth, but for Heavenly treasures.
@Nex Wex 2 no its not. And you are right. But I can tell you that those who serve EVERYDAY. Do this all the time. And ask nothing in return. When I was a kid I was eating lunch in the town diner. A marine walked in and asked if he could eat with me as I was a runt and my friends filled the booth so there wasnt any room for me. We sat there for 3 hours playing paper football, tell yo momma jokes, then I asked what he did in the Army ( he laughed and explained he was a Marine ) he said he was an riflemen. But in his uniform he had a dive bubble and parachute. I now know he was at least a Recon Marine. That man made an impact on me as a child. To the point I enlisted. But broke my leg in on the run after leaving the surf trying to become a recon Marine and was discharged. You will find many stories like mine that involve everything from firefighters to vets. We should all be this way. I was taught at 29 palms that a simple HELLO can change a life.
Kindness which costs nothing... Would be way kinder if he stops fighting to inrich the richest, so the kid's parents, the tax payers, would be able to afford to feed them...
@Aintisar 2 The parents career choices decide if they can afford to feed their kids. You bring up propaganda yet your last response in this comment section was not true and solely propaganda...hypocrite.
@@JohnSmith-cx6rk What is not true?.. The pure propaganda is to make yourself looking like heroes fighting anti -regime wars to keep your 1% of richest people even richer by taking these riches from another children in some "less important" to you countries....May be you don't know what's going on behind all these militarized politics??lol.... Hipocrat is not the worst think to be. The worst is to pay mortgages for your houses from blood money...or keep being in luicide dreaming from generation to generation....Your country has created the worst dictatorship humanity has ever seen!!..Dictatirship which has proven in 1946 that it's the most agressive and there's no borders to it's insanity..Since then it has never stoped.

What a great guy and so proud that he has been serving our country. The two boys were so polite and appreciative. In these times it is so nice to see someone who goes above all call. Thank you so much sir🙋♀️
Actually what’s too bad is that our “commander” in chief brings out the worst in people. A disservice to all the wonderful men and women in uniform and in civilian society who would do this without a second thought, but now our political leadership is all about ME, ME, ME
@Usernamesarewhack thanks 4 your service. We are the best. Maybe thats why we are hated. Every one seems 2 hate the United States of America 4 some reason. Again thank you 4 serving our great nation
This soldier is why America is a great place to be. We all have the potential to help our neighbors and citizens. It takes a kind person to see a need and act on it
Potential being the operative word! We all have it (at least we're supposed to) I guess it's up to you how you use it or don't use it. I do what I can, It isn't much, but maybe my small act of kindness will get " payed forward"
Mr Reyes, thank you for your service. You are so appreciated for giving so much to protect our country and freedom. This goes out to all who have, and still are, serving.
The other day I was at a McDonald's when I went to go order some dessert when I saw a mother with a little girl & a toddler taken out a ziploc bag counting her spare change she had to see what she could afford to buy as I looked on she had maybe around 3 to 4 dollars I simply told her to get what she wanted & I would pay for her meals the look on her face was priceless, I felt so Blessed that I was able to help out a young mother that day !!!
The struggle are real I remember when I to was in these people shoes not knowing how I was going to get Pampers for my baby or I how I was going to get food for the day God is good & I am Blessed beyond words can describe 🙏
You know when I see and read just how good people are who go their way to help those who don't have very much that's what this whole world need's. It's great to help other's who haven't got much .The feeling it gives to the one or family your helping and how you feel doing it and after helping them. People who stay on their own and can do such good to those who haven't got very much. Just like the mother with her children and the homeless man. A mum short on change with her children gets a good meal paid for. And the homeless man gets a hot good nutritious meal he had no money for. It's great to help other's out when they haven't got the money. To see the surprise look on their face. Getting something when least expected. Because that dose not happen every day. It dose not hurt to give to other's. It's a shame not everyone can see that.
Actually some mammals eat there young, hamsters for example and many others do as well just read a little or watch national geographic, I take it ur not from America, well I am so the flag is VERY VERY important to me, if my comment upset u I apologise
I am from America I am part Native American, my son is about 60% Native American, yes every country has a flag and they respect it just like we as Americans respect ours, I'm sorry I will not salute a communist flag but if I was with Putin I would stand and be respectful, oooohhhhhh I'm so bad right, I don't believe in God either but I go to funerals and babtisms (however u spell it) I will respect what u believe but I don't have to agree with it that's all I was trying to say
I'm sorry... but this is what America is only in your imagination. First of all, because what the word "America" means is different among the people. And what they relate with it the same. You are a good example, you imagine kindness, moral value, good heart, on the other hand some kids from Syria can imagine it as a scary evil invader with unparalleled technologies, drones, planes that destroyed their country or even killed their parents. So it's limited to a persons' perception. I would have liked if you wrote it as "this is the nature of human and humanity ". I do support the idea of preserving your culture, traditions, flag and history. They have tremendous value. But as important as not to put a culture/nation above or below others. Because long before each modern country, there were humans that lived here in peace, despite each believing in thousand different gods
God shows up in many ways!!! As a retired Navy Veteran myself, it doesn't surprise me what this Army Officer did as we are built to look out for others!!! Helping a child goes a long way and the gentleman will forever be BLESSED for his kindness!! 🙏🏿
I seen 10 airmen in a taco bell once told the cashier id pay for it and they just laughed like you know how much it is... all I could say is its not enough at all and just shook there hand and thanked them

What a joy this man is, especially in this day and time. I needed to see this today, thank you.
This man is an example of how anyone should act hats off to him
*"My heart breaks in happiness as I read all these comments showing appreciation for this man and those like him who serve selflessly!"*
One act of kindness like that changed two lives in an instant. Those boys will never forget how that felt, and they will want to share that feeling themselves. They will grow up and imitate the man who took the time to feed them, warm them, and teach them.
this really made my day....even as things are so turbulent around us and the world, a humble army ranger took upon himself to help others. God bless you and all our soldiers, navy, airmen, and marines...
My father would do the same when stationed in Korea and Italy. He is 87 and still reflects on these children with tears in his eyes. I salute these soldiers who are special breed of servant-protectors. Thank you Dad, I love and honor you. 🌎⛪♥️ 4GodsoLOVED
Hello friend, how are you doing today and hope fine and good? Hope you dont mind, where are you from?
A man never stands so tall as when he stoops to help a child.

Love that.

Not all heroes wear capes. Salute to you sir! You're a true soldier.
Not all heroes wear capes, what a crock of shit, how is he a hero?? He bought them meal for a couple of kids, many many people do stuff like that everyday but the fact that he has a uniform on makes it any more special?? No it doesn't make him any more special!!!!
@@Clark1967 you dumb or what ? Yes it might be only two children but he helped them when no-one else did ,also that uniform you're referring to ,is not just a uniform . It's people you should respect ,cause these people keep you safe and protect you ,when you're on your phone and talk shit about them .
@@georgiam.3957
I was in the military for 26 years, and I think it's a crock of shit the way so many guys walk around with their chest stuck out wearing the uniform. they walk around wearing the uniform expecting praise from everybody around them. There is a time and place to wear the uniform, and it's not when you're walking around town. And how do you know this particular soldier is keeping me safe? Half of these people that go around wearing the uniform all day have never even seen battle. By the way I was in and served during the Gulf war. I've seen action son, and I don't feel the need to walk around with my uniform on expecting praise from everybody, I do all my donations in charity work anonymously as it should be.
@@Clark1967 I'm disagreeing with what you said , you're right ,but also this man , might just had returned ,so that's why he still wears his uniform .Also i believe that ,we should show respect now matter if we know them or not .I respect you and thank you for your service ,like i do for him too ,even tho i do not know none of you.
@@Clark1967 lol he's a grunt with a cib and ranger tab oh and hes stationed fort benning home of the fucking infantry, dick. I'm quite sure he's seen more in a day than you did in "26" years... If you ever did actually put that uniform on you should lock that shit up and have your fucking brothers back instead of talking shit.
His kids are blessed to have such a wonderful example. He is a true hero in so many ways!
A soldiers job. "figti g for those who cannot fight for themselves". This isn't always a physical fight.. Well done that man.
War. War comes in many shapes and forms so do what we can to help our armed forces are taught to combat those who would cause war for their own selfish needs, but sometimes the best war to fight against war is an act of kindness which no matter how big and important or small and insignificant inspires the potential to cause change for the better. This video of this extraordinary man living up to his sworn duty to help people no matter what race, nationality, and religion will have truly implanted a seed that will eventually spread to inspire others to pass the message that I too will spread one way or another.
Thank you Ltc. From a vet from 1966 to 1972. GOD bless you. And thanks for your SERVICE.

This will bring tears to your eyes letting you know there’s ones that are out there protecting our freedom daily! ThAnks soldier’s!

Come on man! It was a great act of kindness, but that's a bit much. Meatal of honor is reserved for great sacrifices. We are all called to love one another, not for metals here on earth, but for Heavenly treasures.
The impact he made in the lives of those boys is immeasurable; God bless him and his family, and the two children he helped.
Yes, he doesn't need thousands of viewers or his RAK going viral because his action was based on a pure kind heart. Saluts to him 🙋
Thanks to him for going on a business trip to kill other people far from America, glory to America!
True heart of GOLD
This made my day! There is still good in this world. Thank you to all our troops for fighting every day for our freedom!
This is a great American who represents our country, fellow veterans, and our American family very well. Uh-Rah!

His small act of kindness will forever impact the life of those two kids. Thank you for your service!
@Nex Wex 2 no its not. And you are right. But I can tell you that those who serve EVERYDAY. Do this all the time. And ask nothing in return. When I was a kid I was eating lunch in the town diner. A marine walked in and asked if he could eat with me as I was a runt and my friends filled the booth so there wasnt any room for me. We sat there for 3 hours playing paper football, tell yo momma jokes, then I asked what he did in the Army ( he laughed and explained he was a Marine ) he said he was an riflemen. But in his uniform he had a dive bubble and parachute. I now know he was at least a Recon Marine. That man made an impact on me as a child. To the point I enlisted. But broke my leg in on the run after leaving the surf trying to become a recon Marine and was discharged. You will find many stories like mine that involve everything from firefighters to vets. We should all be this way. I was taught at 29 palms that a simple HELLO can change a life.
Nex Wex 2 shut the fuck up so we should all get long and watch out for other who less fortunate is propaganda. Go live in your bubble.
Kindness which costs nothing... Would be way kinder if he stops fighting to inrich the richest, so the kid's parents, the tax payers, would be able to afford to feed them...
@Aintisar 2 The parents career choices decide if they can afford to feed their kids. You bring up propaganda yet your last response in this comment section was not true and solely propaganda...hypocrite.
@@JohnSmith-cx6rk What is not true?.. The pure propaganda is to make yourself looking like heroes fighting anti -regime wars to keep your 1% of richest people even richer by taking these riches from another children in some "less important" to you countries....May be you don't know what's going on behind all these militarized politics??lol.... Hipocrat is not the worst think to be. The worst is to pay mortgages for your houses from blood money...or keep being in luicide dreaming from generation to generation....Your country has created the worst dictatorship humanity has ever seen!!..Dictatirship which has proven in 1946 that it's the most agressive and there's no borders to it's insanity..Since then it has never stoped.
I don't know what can awaken people like you. A nuclear war?.... The time has come now America to pay for all blood shed across the globe. Nobody ever got away from karma....
As i get older stories like this warm my heart reminding me that everyday is a blessing and being kind to others is a gift! he's a true angel 💚
it is so good to know that people like this are still out there. Respect Sir.
God BLESS this soldier, we need more PEOPLE like this❤
DeeAnn Ritter the world needs more people like this

Yeap. The world needs people like this.
There are many people like this. Not every kind gesture is filmed though.
Hello friend, how are you doing today and hope fine and good? Hope you dont mind, where are you from?

What a great guy and so proud that he has been serving our country. The two boys were so polite and appreciative. In these times it is so nice to see someone who goes above all call. Thank you so much sir🙋♀️
There's so many good people in the U.S, it's just too bad that our media only reports the worst in people.
What
100% agree. A divided United States is what they want for a globalist agenda.
Actually what’s too bad is that our “commander” in chief brings out the worst in people. A disservice to all the wonderful men and women in uniform and in civilian society who would do this without a second thought, but now our political leadership is all about ME, ME, ME

Yes. Good man.
Great job soldier and thank you for your SERVICE!!!!
This soldier is why America is a great place to be. We all have the potential to help our neighbors and citizens. It takes a kind person to see a need and act on it
Potential being the operative word! We all have it (at least we're supposed to) I guess it's up to you how you use it or don't use it. I do what I can, It isn't much, but maybe my small act of kindness will get " payed forward"
I served in the Army and he did what comes natural for someone with rank, he took care of people. Bless you.
Mr Reyes, thank you for your service. You are so appreciated for giving so much to protect our country and freedom. This goes out to all who have, and still are, serving.

The other day I was at a McDonald's when I went to go order some dessert when I saw a mother with a little girl & a toddler taken out a ziploc bag counting her spare change she had to see what she could afford to buy as I looked on she had maybe around 3 to 4 dollars I simply told her to get what she wanted & I would pay for her meals the look on her face was priceless, I felt so Blessed that I was able to help out a young mother that day !!!
The struggle are real I remember when I to was in these people shoes not knowing how I was going to get Pampers for my baby or I how I was going to get food for the day God is good & I am Blessed beyond words can describe 🙏
You know when I see and read just how good people are who go their way to help those who don't have very much that's what this whole world need's. It's great to help other's who haven't got much .The feeling it gives to the one or family your helping and how you feel doing it and after helping them. People who stay on their own and can do such good to those who haven't got very much. Just like the mother with her children and the homeless man. A mum short on change with her children gets a good meal paid for. And the homeless man gets a hot good nutritious meal he had no money for. It's great to help other's out when they haven't got the money. To see the surprise look on their face. Getting something when least expected. Because that dose not happen every day. It dose not hurt to give to other's. It's a shame not everyone can see that.
👍👍
and so your action, as well as others like yours will continue on like a rolling stone
@stephen john gray good work!
God bless you for being an example of love!

Actually some mammals eat there young, hamsters for example and many others do as well just read a little or watch national geographic, I take it ur not from America, well I am so the flag is VERY VERY important to me, if my comment upset u I apologise
I am from America I am part Native American, my son is about 60% Native American, yes every country has a flag and they respect it just like we as Americans respect ours, I'm sorry I will not salute a communist flag but if I was with Putin I would stand and be respectful, oooohhhhhh I'm so bad right, I don't believe in God either but I go to funerals and babtisms (however u spell it) I will respect what u believe but I don't have to agree with it that's all I was trying to say
I'm really sorry that my upbeat comment pissed u off, it was not my intention
@@pfalky2k please read what i wrote back to ur comment
I'm sorry... but this is what America is only in your imagination. First of all, because what the word "America" means is different among the people. And what they relate with it the same. You are a good example, you imagine kindness, moral value, good heart, on the other hand some kids from Syria can imagine it as a scary evil invader with unparalleled technologies, drones, planes that destroyed their country or even killed their parents. So it's limited to a persons' perception. I would have liked if you wrote it as "this is the nature of human and humanity ". I do support the idea of preserving your culture, traditions, flag and history. They have tremendous value. But as important as not to put a culture/nation above or below others. Because long before each modern country, there were humans that lived here in peace, despite each believing in thousand different gods
What a guy and a heartwarming story!! God bless you.
That's someone I can respect.
Me too
Yes sir
I would be honored to shake his hand
Much respect to our soldier!!!
