The Texas boy, whose name is Josh, saw the soldier in an awkward position and came to his aid.
A kid hopped into a Fourth of July parade to help an Honor Guard tie his shoelaces in a viral moment that’s awarded him a police medal.
A spectator named Wendy Collins Smith snapped a photo and posted it on social media. “We need more of his type in the world!” she wrote about the boy’s patriotism. At the start of the 4th of July Parade this young man ran out to help one of our Honor Guard members whose shoe came untied. Thank you Josh! We should all be so kind. I have a Chief Challenge coin for you. #America pic.twitter.com/lQr2rxVWQC
The officers were in a tricky spot because two held shotguns and three carried flags, so Wilson couldn’t exactly pass his off — according to the United States Code, the flag cannot touch the ground or be carried horizontally.”Y’all just don’t know how he helped me out today lol.. Happy 4th of July,” Wilson wrote on Facebook, later adding, “Sometimes Officers need help from the community as well! Thanks again, Josh.
