Marine Meets His Son For The First Time After 7-Month Deployment

Like many other military families, Bruna Henry didn't have her husband by her side when she gave birth to their son.

Sadly, Craig Henry, a U.S. Marine, didn't get to hold his baby boy in those first moments of his life, similarly to the Navy Lieutenant who was away on deployment when his daughter was born.

However, on the day Craig returned home from a seven-month deployment in Afghanistan, Bruna made sure to document the special moment he'd see his son for the first time.

In the video, Bruna is seen holding the bundle of joy in her arms as they wait to see Craig at his homecoming.

Finally, she spots her husband and runs up to him as Christina Perri's "A Thousand Years" appropriately plays in the background.

The couple's heartwarming embrace is a heartwarming moment by itself, but just wait until you see him hold his son for the first time.

It's love at first sight for the both of them, just like First Lieutenant Jake Osborne, who froze the minute he saw his baby girl for the first time.

Watch below and try not to get emotional like the YouTube commenter who wrote, "God I just watched this again and cried as much as I did the first time."
