20 years ago, Michael Conner Humphrey — the child star who played a young Forrest Gump in leg braces — was invited to the Oscars, but he and his family couldn’t afford tickets. “The tickets were going to cost a lot of money, so we decided to just watch it on TV like everyone else.” The film went on to win six Academy Awards including Best Actor for Tom Hanks and Best Director for Robert Zemeckis. Eight-year-old Michael watched the show at home on TV.

What is Michael doing now? He decided to shunned Hollywood and instead chose a career in the military — much like his character in the hit movie.

Nice how he went into the military, I like that and appreciate his serving our country.
