New Hampshire Veteran Brought to Tears After Birthday Surprise
Even though Memorial Day Weekend is (ideally) a time to remember those who gave the ultimate sacrifice to ensure our freedom and ability to have a 3-day weekend in the first place, it s just so fitting that this all went down during Memorial Day Weekend. Because while Robert Cass was fortunate enough to not lose his life fighting for our freedom, according to WMUR, he still served 22 years in the United States Marine Corps and went through two combat tours in Vietnam.
According to what his kids told WMUR, Robert has spent pretty much his entire life fixing up used trucks to drive without ever knowing the feeling of owning a brand new one. That s why for his 80th birthday, his nine children (yes, NINE) were ecstatic to be able to give him something he s never had a fully loaded, BRAND NEW Toyota Tacoma.
Robert Cass of Plymouth is about to celebrate his 80th birthday and his family wanted to honor the man who served 22 years in the Marine Corps, including two combat tours in Vietnam.
