You're excused if you get a lump in your throat after watching this video. Talk about heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time!

A young boy from Ohio who found a $20 bill had visions of what to do with his newfound fortune, including buying a video game -- that was until he saw a soldier in uniform. You see, his father -- who was a soldier -- was killed when he was just an infant. The boy has no memories of his father, just stories that others have told him.

He wrapped the $20.00 bill in a letter and gave it to an officer in uniform in Cracker Barrel. Then he wanted to go talk to his dad. So his mom took him to the cemetery and snapped this photo.
