Napoleon Fuller , 66 , couldn't serve in the U.S. military due to blindness in one eye.

Eddie Lamm , a Vietnam -era Air Force pilot, and Caroline Reeves , a World War II historian, brought him a new flag.

Lamm 's gesture gave Fuller a renewed sense of pride and showed that patriotism isn't limited to those who serve in uniform.
