This photo of the World War II Veteran after shaking hands with President Obama is very inspiring. The story behind the photo is also inspiring. Thank you sir.
“After his speech in Normandy, a crush of people tried to get close to the President to shake his hand. I noticed this guy waiting patiently and then literally being pushed back into the crowd. I felt bad for him, and mentioned the incident to the President’s trip director, Marvin Nicholson. Marvin pulled the guy out of the crowd, found him a wheel chair, and brought him over to meet the President. He was a French veteran. The man’s face shows his emotion.” (Official White House photo by Pete Souza) June 6, 2009.
