You’re never too old to dance! Dick Van Dyke made this point clear a couple of months ago when the 89-year-old entertainer danced with his wife. The same can be said about this WWII veteran that had to wait because of a plane delay at Reagan National Airport. Then he heard a song, “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy”, and got the urge to dance!
YouTuber Kelli Oakley captured the event when the WWII vet heard a song, “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy”. He decides to get up and show off his dance moves!
Watch this WWII Veteran hustle to “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy” thanks to Honor Flight Bluegrass…
I love how he politely cut in and started dancing with one of the young flight attendants, simply priceless!
