UPS Driver Gets Package From Woman, Stops Cold When He Reads “Call 911” On Box
When he pulled up to the house, it appeared vacant and silent. When he knocked, Mrs. Jordan gave him the package. It escaped his attention at first.
However, something on the side of the box caught his attention as he was about to load the cargo. A nauseating sense of dread washed over him when he saw the handwritten words there, to the side.
A Specialist
Being a former military officer, Charles Gordon immediately saw something was up. His excellent observational skills were developed over the years of his training to detect the smaller nuances that most men would overlook.
But he would have to deal with something that day that would put him to the test. Few guys could have responded with the effort and competence he showed immediately.
The Battle
At the height of the battle, Gordon had been sent to Afghanistan when it was at its most virulent. He had witnessed events that permanently altered how he viewed the world.
He had witnessed some of his friends pass away, while others had never been the same after returning home. According to Gordon, over half of his fellow service members now experienced PTSD of some kind.
A New Job
He was one of the fortunate few who had returned home unharmed or with minor difficulties. He continued to scowl, though, each time the subject was brought up.
His work as a UPS driver allowed him to drive from home to home and make deliveries, which was very enjoyable to him at this point in his life. He was 55 years old. The situation had changed dramatically from when he had served in the Navy. Despite his best efforts, all that was about to change.
Good Relationships
The reputation Charles had built in Missouri was quite impressive. In the course of his work, he traveled across the county, making many new friends along the way. All of his packages’ recipients knew his name, and he knew theirs – he prided himself on building special relationships.
But until a fatal day revealed the truth, Charles had a quality that his clients were unaware of.
