EDITOR’S NOTE: In 2014, I took a road trip with my family from our home in Charlotte to Colorado Springs. On Memorial Day, as we passed through Tucumcari, N.M. I had a two-minute encounter at a gas station on the fabled Route 66 with a veteran of the Afghan and Iraq war. What follows is an account of that encounter.
