Soldier Returns Home To An Unexpected Surprise From His Veteran Grandpa

Here in New York, we don't have any Food City stores, but if you do, you might want to start shopping at these supermarkets after watching the following extremely powerful ad from them.

Not a word is spoken in this touching 1-minute commercial from Food City, because nothing needs to be said. The story tells an incredible interaction between a young Army soldier, who seemingly always wanted to impress his veteran grandfather, but felt he never could get his approval. As you can see in this video of U.S. Army Captain Sarah Cudd, not everyone has it takes to be a soldier. Sadly, so many people are ignorant in our country and assume the U.S. military is mostly made up of people who didn't have any other career path to take, when in fact it's just the opposite.

As someone who comes from a military family, I feel everyone who selflessly enters the military to fight for our country is a true hero. However, as you can see in the following clip, the most rewarding part about serving one's country is getting to return home to the people that matter most. The emotional homecoming in this commercial had me in tears, because I like to imagine that the young soldier didn't expect his stern grandfather to give him the approval he was looking for. When his veteran grandfather walks out in full uniform and gave him a salute, a sign of the utmost respect in the military, the grandson finally felt like the hero he truly is.

This touching clip is bound to melt your heart, whether you have a loved one who is a soldier or not. I hope you'll feel compelled to send it to others!
