Navy Veteran Charles Burns doesn't have much time left to live, but he promised his son he would be at his Marine Corps Boot Camp graduation. The vet and father who suffers from both diabetes and heart problems was able to keep to that promise. It took a lot of planning to make the trip happen but Burns was determined to be there. Even though Burns uses a wheelchair, he was able to stand up to salute his son.
