DETROIT - An Amazon delivery driver stopped to salute the home of an active Air National Guard member in Michigan after spotting a U.S. Air Force sign on the family’s porch.

Video from the homeowner’s Ring camera captured the touching moment on Dec. 12 in New Baltimore, Michigan, a suburb of Detroit.

It shows the driver dropping off a package and snapping a photo for proof of delivery. The person then rings the doorbell and starts heading back to their delivery vehicle.

The video then shows the driver quickly turning to face the home and saluting, before continuing on with their route.

She later told Storyful her husband has been an active Air National Guard member for 13 years.
