Amazing 👏👏👏😢😢

I hate these things. A 65 year old man should not get this choked up

At minute a 1:36 a still shows a graduate trying to see underneath something...what was it? 🤔

weartv Well, y’all got me crying like a baby!!! This is so beautiful

AWESOME ❗️

Thank u for u an ur families sacrifices. May God bless y’all. 😊

So beautiful.

This story is full of bull........ I'm sorry the Army would of given him leave... where was he stationed in a north Korean jail

As a soldier something is really wrong and not telling the truth why it took home years to get leave...

Again why was he not able to take yearly leave to come home and visit his Daughter or family.Shame on him I believe there is more to this story and its bogus that it took ten years... a commander of a tank have leave privaleges and the Army would of not let him come home on leave

Hmmmmm this is the most Bizzare story.He didn't see his family for 10 years and he's only a tank commander in Korea. I think I'd like to know the true story why he did not come home on normal yearly allowed leave. I think this is plain bull and sensationalism of a neglective Dad

🙏🏾 👍🏾✌🏾 😢

Who cares?

Fake news, impossible to miss 4 years unless its intentional. IJS

Awesome 👏🏾

What a beautiful story and video. Congratulations to the graduate!!! And Sir, a huge thank you for service and sacrifices.

When did the Army allow for that stetson hat to be warn w/ the service dress?

A lovely event but I read all these tweets and was horrified the armed forces cannot be a little flexible and supportive of their staff with families. To miss 4 years of a child's education is so sad.

Nice story. Glad he was there.

Now that a real dam good farther and a solider he made it 👩🏿‍🎓👩🏿‍🎓👩🏿‍🎓👩🏿‍🎓👩🏿‍🎓
