Yes, there are still nice people left especially in Cincinnati.



Jobless, Homeless Vets Perform Good Deed

A homeless man and another who was recently homeless are being hailed as heroes for coming to the aid of a man who was being robbed in downtown Cincinnati.

Gary Wagner was being attacked at an ATM when the two Vets intervened and wrestled him free, police officers said. One of them stayed with Wagner while the other ran after the suspect and stood in front of his car until officers arrived.

"I think it was a courageous and unselfish act," said Cincinnati police Capt. Gary Lee. "It's a perfect example of what can happen when the citizens and police work in partnership."

The Cincinnati Enquirer reported that both men are military veterans who didn't know each other before the Monday encounter. David Hale (pictured above) just got off the streets, and Chad McClain, who ran after the suspect, is still living in a shelter.

Both men said they hope anyone else would do the same.

Well done!
 
Our country never does enough for these men and women who've served. All the best to them.
