A video of a Navy SEAL climbing a flagpole in order to fix a wayward American flag has gone viral, and the sign of respect isn't just touching viewers — the SEAL who climbed the flagpole says that he had to “give it my all” for those who sacrificed their lives for their country.
"I couldn’t go by this flag this morning and not give it everything I had," Raso wrote on Facebook on Thursday."The gold stars on this monument and the sacrifice that has been made for all us was something I wasn’t just going to pass by." "This was my 4th attempt at trying to get up and fix the flag," Raso said."Literally had to visualize what I was doing wrong and what I had to do to correct my inefficiencies in order to improve for the next attempt."
