'Fantastic!' Jake Tapper and 'The Lead' 'adopt' American soldier in Afghanistan [pic]

Tapper’s definitely one of the good guys. Here’s what he was up to this morning:

@jaketapper @HomefrontHugs Mr. Tapper, thank you for your continued support of veterans and warfighters alike.

“The Lead” certainly scores with this gesture, but Tapper was careful to remind us who the real heroes are:

@AfghanWarVetrns dont thank me for doing close to nothing…thank the troops and their families for risking it all

Amen.

@jaketapper Now, that's the kind of news I want to hear about. Thanks for doing this and inspiring other to follow your lead. @HomefrontHugs
