For months this brave Marine, Carson Ketrow, has been sorely missing his beautiful girlfriend. For months and months now, he's been sitting at his base in Afghanistan, counting down the hours until he could come back home for some rest and relaxation!
When he received the news that he could come to visit his friends and family a bit earlier than he initially expected, he suddenly realized he could easily surprise his girlfriend by telling her he was still across the ocean, thousands of miles away, when in reality he was only a few states away!
Just like the soldier who completely took his father-in-law by surprise, Ketrow managed to keep his whole plan a secret, and as he walked through an old parking lot into a local movie theater that his girlfriend was in, he knew that he had somehow completed another successful mission!
When the film ended, the moviegoers slowly filtered out of the theater. But Ketrow remained absolutely still, holding a beautiful bouquet of red roses, and when she finally walked through the doors, her reaction showed that she missed him just as much as he missed her!
We just love watching these amazing "welcome home" videos, and even though Ketrow had to return to Afghanistan soon after, we're happy that he had a chance to take it easy and see firsthand what exactly it was he was fighting for.
Please SHARE this beautiful video if you can't wait until Ketrow and all the other members of our military are safe and sound at home!
