According to WSB, the picture was taken during the recognition of the POW-MIA Chair of Honor in the third inning at Suntrust Park in Atlanta on Memorial Day.
As of 9:00 p.m., the photo had nearly 3,000 retweets.
The station says that during the ceremony, a Parkview High School U.S. Marine Corps JROTC member stood next to the chair in the rain. A fan wearing a red raincoat opened his umbrella and held it above the student to protect him from the rain.
We’re proud to always have a chair designated for Prisoners of War at SunTrust Park. https://t.co/d4iYeMbaNr
