RIP Robert Dole, servant to our nation. Regardless of party preference when faced with a decision Bob Dole always supported our great country and our troops. Rest well soldier.

A touching moment for a friend from a friend. A veteran for a veteran. A man for another.

That salute brought tears to my eyes Senator Dole honoring his fellow soldier from war

That was the most beautiful thing I have seen in a long time. The determination in his face to do that. The tender moment of the man helping him and then lovingly fixing his blazer. This is the part of humanity that I love and that gives me hope.

The greatest generation once again shows why it is great. Honorable to the core.

I’m 35, working class. I never thought I would be moved by this. I really didn’t. My mom cried. I even cried. I guess we all are truest together in the very end. No matter our political or religious views. In the end we here in this part of the land are in this together, till the end. It was a very beautiful ceremony. May the 41st president Rest In Peace.

Bob Dole is a real man, they do not make them like Bob Dole anymore...

These men are what true patriotism is all about. They truely are the greatest generation. God Bless you President George H. W. Bush and may you Rest In Peace. We love you.

Thank you Mr Dole...…...I needed that too. From veteran to veteran.....I love you man.

Honor. Dignity. Respect.

I just read through dozens of comments here and - by golly - I found nothing but RESPECT. Thank God there really are true Americans left in the United States of America. I am so proud to be among all of you...

Awesome, that Bob Dole was able to be there and salute.

That's what respect looks like. Well done Senator Dole!

This is the embodiment of what it means to be a patriot.

He did this with the utmost pride, dignity, and respect.

Oh , that moment when Dole salutes, what a incredibly beautiful, moving and inspirational moment! It brought me to tears. God bless you Bob Dole

Beautiful and dignified and utterly human.

Not a fan, but i respect that he saw things during WWII that most of us wouldn’t “see” during our worst nightmare.

That was so moving. I cried watching it.

This is a powerful moment. Let us all never forget we are Americans first and these men fought for our right to disagree. God Bless our 41st President George Bush, Congressman Bob Dole and all those who love America on this day!

The greatest generation. Total dignity.

We could all learn a ton from what he just did

By far the most beautiful scene of respect, you can see the determination on Bob Dole's face to stand up. God bless Bob Dole and George H.W. Bush #41.

I waited for 4 hrs. in the line.

Bob Dole salute...beautiful We stand for our flag 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

A true patriot, thank you for being here, and your life long dedication to humanitarian needs, **********

*Chills* from head to toe! REST IN PEACE GEORGE HW BUSH: Age 94. He loved America and served with character, class, and integrity.

Just a way to say good buy to friend in the highest honor.

What a tribute from One Great Man to Another

One of the last of the good guys.God bless you Bob,and thank you for your service.🇺🇸

Bob Doyle always an American war hero and first class act.

Senator Dole, Thank You for your Service! s/Retired 24 Year US Navy Submariner

This guy was SERIOUSLY wounded serving his country back in the day...And another example of Brokaw being 100 percent correct.........Greatest Generation...

dignity

The honor and respect that was shown should ring out throughout this country. We all can learn something from this.

This is why America is greatest nation on earth … not red not blue … it's United States of America

2:31, Thank you President Bush for signing the ADA Act in 1990

Powerful. Moving. And the utte most respect I have ever seen. I did shed a tear or more when I saw that. God bless for these men who have served so well. 🇺🇸❤😢

Senator Dole and President Carter are now only among a handful of that Greatest Generation still alive. Respect from the UK.

That was the most beautiful, touching thing I've seen in a very long time. From one warrior to another, men of a different time, a different world. Bravery, honor and dignity. They don't make them like those fine gentlemen anymore. To all of our service people, past and present, foreign and domestic, I thank you for your service and sacrifice. We are lucky to have you all.

The look on his face as his eyes wandered, made me feel like he was making peace with the finite resolution of life.... it certainly makes you wonder if you’re making the best choices everyday in your life

God bless each and every one of our Vets…we wouldn’t be here without them 🇺🇸

When I saw Sen Dole stood at age 95 to give a salute to his old friend, tears were coming down so fast and furious. Thank you for your service to this nation Sen Dole. RIP President GHW Bush. Pax+

President Bush was my Commander and Chief. Rest In Peace good man. Salute.

Be still my heart .. Senator Dole. I remember these men standing tall and strong and handsome. I will always picture them that way.

Amazing sight. An honorable salute for an honorable man and honorable president

That absolutely bring tears to my eyes...

Most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. Thank you Mr Bush. I’m so proud to be an American. Rest In Peace.

If you can watch this without choking up, you’re just not human - absolutely beautiful.

I am a veteran and an advocate for universal service. This is why. It's because it helps shape people like this, breaks down racial and economic barriers, and would do more than anything i can think of to unite our country. Dole and Bush were two great men united in their service. We need so many more like them today.

Astonishingly moving to see that gesture from Bob Dole, wonderful,,much respect from Scotland.

What Senator Dole did made me shed some tears, that was very touching, much respect for him!

Just wow........Thank you sir for your service. RIP dear 41st

This truly made me almost just lose it. Especially since Senator Dole's recent announcement. I never voted for him but admire and respect him immensely.

Dole 😭

George H W Bush and Bob Dole Albanians will never forget you ! 🇺🇸❤️🇦🇱❤️🇽🇰

BEAUTIFUL, touched me soo much, we should all strife for such a moment

Such respect and dignity and patriotism. I wish every American had these three qualities.

Most touching...men of class

0:37 her reaction😭 RIP Bob. God bless America🇺🇲 A true patriot and a hero.

Class! That is the epitome of honor

bob dole broke my heart :(

That was beautiful!

Bob Dole on SNL was particularly funny. He had a good scene of humor and a flair for sketch comedy.

One true American patriot saluting another. An incredibly moving & powerful moment.

LOVE, STRENGTH, HONOR, RESPECT. I HAVE TO TRULY BELIEVE THAT THERE IS MORE GOOD IN PEOPLE THAN BAD...................

For those who noticed, Col. Dole [Bob Dole is an Honorary Colonel of the 10th Mountain Div.] saluted with his left hand. Military courtesy requires that the salute be delivered by the right hand, *save for this exception* ... when the soldier has lost the use of their right hand, they are permitted to salute with the left. Then-Capt. Dole was wounded commanding a company of the 10th Mtn in Italy, losing the use of his right hand and arm. This gesture, along with the presence of Pres. Bush's service dog, Sully, will remain with me the rest of my life.

THIS IS AMERICA comes together with compassionate hearts to pay respects to a former president ... BoB Dole God Bless you and your Family

My God... This is/was the ultimate respect the 2 war heros, has anyone ever seen anything like this before?!? Its enough to get most folks a little misty eyed. We salute President George H W Bush AND we salute you Senator Bob Dole... Thank you both for your service to this country. I've made comments for President Bush 41 on one of the other clips so I'll refrain from boring you all with it again, God Bless both of these men.

God bless Mr. Bob Dole! Unforgettable and unbelievable moment... All the respect to Him, a true man! Greetings from Budapest.

Breathtaking tear jeking respect

What an amazing act

A touching moment. Mr.Dole paying respect to his friend.

Wow! That was just so awesome! ❤️

And I also salute Bob Dole. Thank you to ALL those who have fought and do fight for the FREEDOM of this nation and for the FREEDOM of other nations.

The. Greatest. Generation. Thanks once again for your service...NEVER FORGET

Thank you so much president George Hw Bush , always miss you..rest in peace❤🙏🙏🙏

Omg this made me so sad. What a reality check on how time has passed.

beautiful and very moving tribute....

So American and amazing. What is wrong with people who didn't like this??

I Must stop watching things like this. Tears do not suit me, but what a courages thing to do.

RIP

I had the opportunity to meet President Bush when he came to Cincinnati Oh he was on Fountain Square speaking in 1988 and I was 27yrs old and he was so approachable and kind. I really didn't know a lot about politics then. I know he had a great ❤ heart. Watching his service showed how much he was loved by family and friends. I 🙏 pray that he has eternal life in the kingdom of Heaven in Jesus name. Peace and blessings to his family. I just look at all the wonderful children and grandchildren he had that loved him. Bless Senator Dole standing and saluting to his friend.

Wow haven't seen Dole in years

I don't know much about the man, but that was beautiful. We may have differences, but we all share one thing in common. We are human. We all laugh, cry, love, get old, and one day die. We get caught up in things and sometimes forget the important things in life, but we are all the same at the end. God bless all.

They served. I can’t imagine. Both are why I can still vote and be an American. They are heroes.

Rest in peace and thank you President Bush

God bless, Senator Bob Dole. 🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🙏💕💔

all i can say is RESPECT

Great moment...respect for Bob. USA need leaders like HW Bush

Such gracious class, old school people are dying off.

Respect Sir. The measure of the man.

Rest in peace we will never forget you

SO VERY MOVING❤️

RIP Bob Dole.

Up until a couple of years ago. Bob Dole would meet the WWII Honor Flights at the WWII Memorial every Saturday. No publicity. Just a great man doing a great service to those veterans who visited the memorial.

I swear I was about to cry. Ok do there were tears..

What a gentleman through and through. He came to the greatest generation.

what a proud beautiful moment

What a decent man. What an honorable gesture. The effort this took, from a man of 95, is incredible.
