She decided to reach out to the Navy veteran and offered to buy him a drink.
“For whatever reason, he just looked sad to me, so I walked up and I say, ‘Can I get you a beer?’” Ahmann said.
She then asked Smith where he was planning to shelter during the hurricane.
“He said he didn’t know,” Ahmann said. “He was going to go where God told him to go.”
