  1. I could’ve used a dad like this

  2. That hair though why does every kid now look like an indoctrinated libtard NBC doesn't care about what it means to be an American if they did they wouldn't have and continue to attack the only legit president of our lifetime and maybe ever DJT 45

  3. His wife cheating on him. Thanks for killing people for oil.

  4. This needed to have a grab your Kleenex warning!

  5. Kindness and love still exists! Pass it on!! Uplifting stories!! Gives me hope!❤

  6. Please, please keep reporting these kind of stories!!!

  7. "Funny" how it's never a politician's or rich-man's children who die for oil and greed.

  8. Judging from that kids colored hair the Dad probably needs to find a way to be home more often because his absence is affecting his kids more than he knows.

  9. Thanks for sharing a good story ❤
    We need to see more of these types of stories.

  10. I'm just a sucker for every video about a returning military person who surprises or gets surprised by family, friends or community. Yeah, I'm a sucker alright. Because I know kinda how it feels to be acknowledged and appreciated in a special way.
    I remember surprising my mother by showing up in my dress blue Air Force uniform
    unannounced after basic training. This was 1979. My mothers shock turned to tears of joy as she said "You left a boy, and returned a man!" And if you think I'm not crying about this after all these years you're wrong!
    Like I said, I'm a sucker for these sappy videos!

  11. I pray that every man and woman that fights for the United States of America receive this kind of welcome home

  12. 11 Months in the Middle East. Smh.

    ( No disrespect , they are humans and go through a lot ) But do y'all even think for a moment what they do in countries they have no relation with.

    Well they are mainly sent for stealing and destruction.

  13. We always need to have our veterans backs… No matter what

  14. If US businesses love the military so much, why isn't their best discount reserved for active duty and veterans?

  15. This was beautiful to watch. Thank you for sharing.

  16. ⭐🇺🇲⭐🇺🇲⭐🇺🇲

  17. 66 weeks of chemotherapy…did I hear that correctly or is the journalist reading it wrong with an extra 6? These feel good stories the media loves to closeout their programing with in their set format does not hit me like they should. I shut the television off years ago because I couldn't put up with the programming. This just reminds me why the media lost my respect.

  18. When you see your kid putting colours on their hair like that, guaranteed everything you've done so far has been a failure!

  19. They sound really good for a middle school band. Thanks for your service btw!

  20. Imagine thinking 11 months is a long time

  21. What a nice moment eh.

  22. Хоноц хоноцдоо дургүй, хонуулсан нь хоёуланд нь дургүй. Translate this from Mongolian and think about everybody in the world.

  23. Any Milli Vanilli fans in the crowd? 🦗🦗🦗

  24. MICorpratocracy M$M PROPAGANDA to MANUFACTURE CONSENT for WAR PROFITS for the MIC. Madison Ave. PR like those magnetic yellow ribbons for the last warmonger war the lied you in to.
