9 Year Old honored for saluting the funeral procession of Fallen Trooper

[Just a guy 493]

Trooper Andrew Fox of the Virginia State Police was killed in the line of duty last week. When 9 year old Lane Snow found out that the Trooper's funeral procession would be going by his house, he put his Cub Scout uniform on and stood by the road and saluted the entire procession which was 2 miles long. That means he held his salute for approximately 15 minutes.

Even through their grief, the Troopers and Officers in the procession took notice of this kid and his salute and honored him at his Cub Scout meeting this week. This kid is the proud future of America !!

Crime Cop, what a great story, thanks for sharing!

Hats off to this young man for his showing of respect for a hero. If only more of today's youth could be as respectful and mature as him.

RIP Trooper Fox

Kinda restores faith in our youth...what a respectful young man and I also feel the police agencies did a great thing by honoring him.

Any cop who gets sloppy or complains about having to hold a salute for half the time this kid did should be forced to watch this video.

Thanks for this post, crimecop. My 10yr old is being raised the same old school way. I just wish more of his peers were.
