Amy Adams gives up airplane seat for soldier

I am usually inclined to be cynical about patriotism, esp when it applies to Hollywodd film stars- "the last refuge of a scoundrel" asSamuel Johnson put it in the 18the century( just as comedian George M.Cohan observed "many a bum show has been saved by the flag") but reports that Hollywood A-Lister Amy Adams gave up her first class airplane seat to a US Army soldier seated in Economy class made me smile at her unpretentious-and deeply moving gesture, esp in the run up to the Fourth of July celebrations next Friday in the US.

OK, Ms Adams's father served in the US military when she was a child but it was STILL deeply moving!

Anybody else think as I do?
