Jan 12, 2018

A photo of a truck driver standing on the edge of the road is going viral online, and for all the right reasons! 

A military procession was going through Interstate 70 to Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery, where WWII Navy veteran Fred Ladge would be laid to rest with full military honors. Ladge’s granddaughter, Missouri-resident Kristen Collins, noticed a truck driver pulled over on the shoulder of the highway standing inches from the road with his hand on his heart to honor the veteran he didn't even know.

Hours after the photo appeared online, Collins was able to learn the identity of the trucker — U.S. Army veteran Bradley Faulkner.

Bradley contacted Kristen through social media and they were able to meet in person!
