8K runners salute World War II veteran, age 95 (video). Tears.
http://www.news-record.com/blogs/wooten_running_shorts/article_54509dd8-a3b1-11e3-8063-0017a43b2370.htmlFrom the San Jose Mercury News:
"Runners in Sunday's 408K Race took a spontaneous detour to thank a World War II veteran watching the event in uniform.
"Joe Bell, 95, had come out on the drizzly morning to cheer on the runners in the 8-kilometer race from downtown San Jose to Santana Row. The event's charity partner is the Pat Tillman Foundation, which funds scholarships for military veterans and their spouses."
