SAN DIEGO - Two San Diego police officers are being commended for going above the call of duty.

Over the Memorial Day weekend, they pushed a Vietnam veteran nearly two miles to his home after his power scooter broke down on a busy road.

Both officers work out of the San Diego Police Department's Eastern division office off of Aero Drive in Serra Mesa, and neither one gave what they did Sunday a second thought.

"The least I could do was push him, you know. That's the least I could do. He's sacrificed and given so much to this country," said SDPD Officer Milo Shields.

It was not what Vietnam veteran Gil Larocque was expecting to happen when his power scooter stopped working along busy Clairemont Mesa Boulevard on the day before Memorial Day.

"You wouldn't expect them to do something like that … put you all the way home," said Larocque.
