A woman has received a kind gift from a stranger noticing a bumper sticker on her car that suggest that her boyfriend is stationed in Afghanistan.

While her vehicle was in the parking lot at Dunkin Donuts, the unidentified man left $40 (€31) in cash under her windshield wiper.

A note in which the good Samaritan thanked her for her boyfriend's service and her patience in waiting for him was attached.

“Take your hero out to dinner when he comes home. Thank you both for serving,” the stranger encourages her.

Samantha Ford snapped a photo of the note and posted in on Facebook, where many Liked it and expressed their support for U.S. troops. Many of them are probably in the same situation, waiting for a boyfriend, son or father to come home.

“There are no words to describe how I'm feeling right now. Tears in my eyes,” she writes in the caption.
