PTSD is Serious. My ex- marine grandson had it for 10 years. When he came home from Iraq & Afghanista, he was never the same........then he died by his own hand. He was 30 yrs. old. Seven years later, imstill hurting.
You people with your negativity are horrible 😔 A military man who fought for our country comes home to surprise his wife, and he finds out she had their son while he was gone. He puts the video up to share with the world and all you can talk about is infidelity and race of his child that you clearly can see! Just a bunch of horrible ungrateful for this man's service 😢😢 I personally thank you for sir for your service and what a wonderful surprise to come home and see your wife and son. God Bless you and your family sir. 🇺🇲🇺🇸🎖️🪖🎖️❤️
People saying military men cheat all the time, all I know is, Real Men Don't Cheat! Same for women. I don't understand how a person is in a marriage, and then goes out and cheats? And the excuses as to why people cheat is just BS! Don't get married, don't enter into a committed relationship if you can't be faithful.
What a great surprise 😮 for both of them! 🥰🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼💕💕
pstd is serious. I'm a 63 yr female. I'm hard to live with. I found my soul mate. he is wonderful. I can be scarry sometimes but he is still here. we have known each other since jr high
thanks for your service. so happy to see your home coming was such a happy one. God bless you and you take care of yourself. 👍👍
I am so confused. This brought tears of joy to my eyes, then I started reading the comments. It's absolutely disgusting that we have to share space with such mentally ill nasty individuals. Seek help. You don't have to remain and live out the rest of your life being a terrible miserable mite.
My mother never cheated on my stepfather while he was stationed overseas! I don't know about him, but she was a good wife and mother, and she kept small children in our home for extra money. We would hold Christmas a couple of months so we could share it when he came home as a family. They wrote constantly, and we made reel to reel taped messages to send in care packages while he was deployed. Living on base, we saw other kids who had a lot of "uncles," but the only sleepovers at our house were our friends or our grandparents from Texas. He served 20 years before he retired. Unfortunately, he was different the last time he came home from Vietnam. His personality had changed. lt took a long time before he could handle really loud sudden noises. So, he got a quiet job where noises were lower and scheduled. As expected, he did well in a quiet daily routine. He retired after 20 years from this position.
congratulations 🎊 👏 💐
Don’t understand this stupid video.
This is beautiful.
My uncle returned from WWII a changed man. He was in the back of a gunner plane which was hit by the enemy. He survived but his friend didn’t. He came home a mean drunk. No one knew about PTSD then. It was all on the man. I’m glad that now we have the information and means to help our returning soldiers find a new way to live and feel.
why is everyone so mad?
Did he know about the surprise? 🤔
Poor pup! Don’t do this stuff to dogs, they have feelings too!!!!!
pretty simple lack of morals it doesn't exist anymore
She didn't want him worried about her while he was deployed. She wanted him focused his mission, so he could come home safe. Welcome home Father. They look pretty happy to me. CONGRATULATIONS.
She was pregnant before he left for deployment and missed he missed his baby’s birth. If you’re associated with the military you understand if not you accused her of infidelity. Welcome home soldier and thank you both for your service because a military wife keeps the home fires burning while he’s fighting for our country!🙏🏽🫶🏼
How long was he gone? I hope less than 9 months. 😏
What was surprise?
the surprise is thats not his kid.
Maybe i'm missing something, but if this is about cheating..I dont get it. Other man looked older and still came in with baby, smiling. A cheater would run. Prob the man's father..Who knew what was going to happen. Maybe I'm just an optimist.
Nobody really knows when conception is so stop saying everyone is a cheater. It’s just sad how humanity has gone down hill..
So sorry for your loss.
My husband and I spent 2 yrs. in Germany on deployment.
What was her surprise?
She had to get a sugar daddy while he was deployed. His checks weren't cutting it, and she accidentally got knocked up by a 62 year old HVAC guy!!!🤷♂️
The surprise was she had his baby, it’s not like she could call and say hey baby I’m going in to labor, you usually have to wait till they call you
Thank you for your service sir 🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸
Sorry for your loss seems so empty to me but more importantly I that one day you can find peace concerning the loss of your grandson.
welcome home soldier 💕 thank you for your services 💕
I so agree with you.This little story made me cry.I also thank you,sir,for your service.Welcome home.💕🙏
I also hope that they have long happy life together and I know being a veteran and are being in the service and he could have a lot of PTSD and stuff but I hope she stays there for her for him rather not her and him for her brother they belong together and they have a beautiful son together
hey man.... the way it was worded, I thought the Kid was the surprise
My Husband would have been pist as Hell
How is it that she couldn’t get him any kind of message about his child being born in this day and age with the amount of technology we have? I could text my son in Japan 24/7🤔
My daughter had PTSD from being sexually abused by the neighborhood boy. She took her life. And the boys still hanging around but now he’s about 50 years old. I wish I could tell his parents. But I think they would just deny it.
thy hugged like thy was bro n sister
So So happy, 💕 GBYA
I loved it he surprised his mom & she was so happy thank God for men like him that served our country thank u so much for ur servers God richly bless u
Praying for a long and happy marriage for you both! 💕
I will say this..military men..screw around all the time. fact..
the math don't math.
thank you for your services and congrads to you both
Surprise!! Surprise!!
Does she remember him?
Whose kid did she have?
🥹😭❤️❤️❤️

Was he living in a cave. He didn’t know she had a baby???????????!!!!!!!
