Lost in Thought

This young man had been sitting under this tree for at least 20 mins. I asked if he had family or friends buried here, to which he answered 'no'. I asked if he was a veteran, to which he again answered 'no' ... adding that he just respects what all this stands for and simply wanted to say thanks in his own way.

A picture full of emotion, and it is good that he obviously cares.

A really meaningful image, and the explanation makes it even moreso. More people should pay respects regardless if it is personal or not. There vets paid the price for all of us, not just their friends and family. A very touching image indeed!
