To all the soldiers, past, present and future: Thank you for your service.

I like the way the father immediately protected the daughter’s privacy as soon as he realized how overwhelmed she felt! 👌🏾🌟❤️

The unexpected arrival of soldiers back home symbolizes the triumph of resilience and determination.

I am in my 60s...and these videos always remind me when my dad( US marine) came back from Vietnam in the late 60s...a military kid is always a military kid.

I wish mine ain't gone forever, I wish he can just come back and say, my Baby I'm back, , but it's never gonna happen...Rip Dad...miss u😭😭😭

[carolinagirl]

He’s not my dad and I cried like a baby watching this. God bless your family. And, dad, thank you for your service. ❤️🇺🇸

When you see these children fall apart when the parent returns, it shows how much they missed them.

She just woke up she wasn't ready for that surprise !
Surprised not surprised but happy to be reunited to her dad and then came the tears of cry by realizing that is not a dream but true reality by getting herself hugged, held by her dad !

That is a daddies girl for sure. So sweet. I lived seperate from my wife and kids for about a year while we got on our feet and sometimes we went a month without seeing each other and it was such an amazing feeling just gettng together after that little bit of time. They always ran up to me and sometimes happy tears. I couldnt imagine that long. Thank you for your service..you and that little girl of yours.

A father’s love is forever no matter how far away

[ericgold]

This brought me tears to my eyes, I'm a father of a 7 year old girl and I can't imagine being away from her 3 days, girls rule!

When he looked at flowers to present her n didn't manage to express it. Sacrifice is beautiful expression of love.

[hjhjhjhkuntryride]

Thank you for you service.

God Bless our Soldiers and the sacrifices they make for our country and to keep ALL Americans safe. We often forget that these soldier's wives and children also make huge sacrifices when their loved one's are overseas.
