A baby who was once dressed in an American flag onesie and captured in a sweet photo with his hand on his heart has grown up to be a very patriotic 5-year-old.

Cooper Routon of Arab, Alabama, has gone viral for an unprompted salute to the flag as the national anthem played prior to a local football game. “He just said he knew it was what he was supposed to do!” Cooper’s mom, Roni, told The Epoch Times.
