    Summary
    This video was about a 8 year old named Miles who found a $20 bill in the parking lot while going to a restaurant with his family. At the same time, Lieutenant Daily was going to eat at the same restaurant. When Miles saw the daily, he started to think about his father which was a soldier before but he died 5 weeks after Miles was born. Then he wrote a sticky note to the soldier saying that his father was a soldier and that he had died. He gave the $20 bill to the soldier. I think this story was nice because it shows the respect that Miles had for Daily just for being a soldier and in honor for his father
