EXTON, Pa. — An Army veteran who remembered getting free coffee and doughnuts from the Salvation Army decades ago gave a $10,000 check to a dumbfounded bell-ringer.
“The $10,000 is to help pay for my coffee and donuts,” he said in a handwritten note signed, “P.F.C.” “Seems fair to me after 40+ years, with inflation and everything.”
The man gave the check to a volunteer outside a department store at the Exton Mall on Friday. He remembered being given coffee and doughnuts while serving in World War II, a Salvation Army spokesman said. He asked the Salvation Army not to identify him.
