Soldier Makes A Bold Move In A Taco Bell After Two Strangers Walk In

All too often, people get so wrapped up in their own lives that they forget to pay kindness forward. When this happens, it quickly becomes clear just how important those little acts of love truly are. No one knows this better than Robert Risdon, a soldier who, upon walking into a Taco Bell late one rainy night, spotted two strangers who looked a little...off. When the dark reality of the situation became clear, he wasted no time jumping into action.

Meet Robert Risdon

Army Lt. Col. Robert Risdon was heading home from work when he realized he was hungry. It was late — around 9:30 pm — so he pulled into the nearest fast food restaurant to have a quick dinner...a decision that would end up affecting more people than he knew. 

Cold And Rainy Night

He walked in and was greeted by the late-dinner rush. Thanks to the pouring rain, everyone in the restaurant looked wet, cold, and all-around miserable. Because of this, when two soaking wet figures walked in, they weren’t welcomed by smiles. 

Getting Curious

Robert watched the duo go from table to table, mumbling something to each annoyed customer, all of whom quickly brushed them away. The closer they got to Robert’s table, the more curious he became.

Not There To Eat

See, it soon became clear that the mysterious strangers were really just young boys. Robert watched as the taller of the two boys shoved his hands into his pockets. It was dinner time, but it was obvious that they weren’t there to eat.
