My heart goes out to the poor fellow. I'm afraid I can't say more than that and still stay within forum rules.

Whoever did this will have to live with themselves. Conscience has a way of kicking in at some later date and exacting a price.

I can't fix what happened to this vet, but as a response, I visited our local Veterans home in Oxford, MS. These three men were all stationed in Glasgow WWII. They said my "IKE" jacket and US Army kilt reminded them of better days during the war. I enjoyed our chat and especially the old and famous photo on the wall behind them. Thanks to all our vets worldwide.

'like a pack of dogs"
Sounds like an accurate assessment of those who would attack a veteran on Remembrance Day.
What an absolute disgrace! While I'm sure they won't be apprehended, I surely hope that they will.
Lest we forget.
