- Fifth-grader, Payge Maddix, had not seen her father, who had been fighting in Afghanistan, in almost a year, but he gave her the surprise of her life at her school, Friday.
Never let it go unsaid that there is no greater joy than to have a loved one return home from war, alive and well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How can you NOT cry when kids get that excited??? PRICELESS!!!!
God bless the brave, those who serve or served giving peace, and an hope, and liberty all over the world a chance...
nice of dad coming home.
So sweet and beautiful thank you for your service 😊
Look at that hug. That hug says it all.
God bless the teacher
good for sticking up for yourself. I know it is hard to loose someone in the army I have lost about 10-12 cousins because they fought for other peoples asses even when they don't deserve it. thank you for serving our country. live long and prosper
thank you all. these places they fight are rough I have lost more cousins than I can count. it means a lot that for once they are not given crap for fighting. just look at all the comments. all they do is give crap to those that fight to free everyone else. I really hope you live long and prosper
ps sorry about the spelling and grammer im 12
These always make me cry
Great teacher, wish we had more like that.
Amy Dunlap, what a teacher. what a person. From an Aussie god bless you. People like you are hard to find!
You must be the type of person who is miserable all the time. The audacity to come to a heart warming video and attempt to bring it down just shows how truly little you are. Good luck succeeding in life.
Those daddy's home make me choke up in happiness
OW. my back hurts from that hug pat
if these videos don't touch your hearts then youre not human
Much respect for you David!
Thank you to all of our service members and their families making the sacrifices every day. I was in the US Army for 10 years, and serving our country is a piece of cake compared to the time we are separated from our families. And what the families go through and sacrifice is also service to our country. God bless you all.
Thanks for the information, I love these reunions!
Well Said Chris Sikkens, and Thank You
So awesome to see there father come home for good
'
i am honor and salute to the all militarys men / women
I'm not an american, but I support your troops and appreciate what they've sacrificed for our freedom
my cousin is at basic training right now. and i miss him a lot. this gets to me
Best reaction i've seen from a child :)
How sad that there are 10 people that were "moved" enough in a negative way to give this beautiful reunion a thumbs down.
Welcome home, Sgt. Maddix. Enjoy the love of your family and community - you've earned it.
(Sgt D. Organ, Assault Pioneers, 2nd. Battalion Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, seven tours.)
The teacher makes me wish I was in 5th grade
You should have seen my Freshman English teacher. And her name was Ms. English.
"I'm Hot For Teacher" would seem the appropriate soundtrack to this clip
Great story and that teacher was sooo cute oh yeah
Sweet!
Yeah I cried...
Im not american but I am British, and I thank our troops and yours for all the oil you are bringing in so we can keep our V8's running strong. Thank You!
I cried.
Well done,trooper.
My faith in humanity is officially restored. Just love and excitement like that in that girl's eyes brought a smile to my face. (Which isn't easy as I am a stick-in-the-mud.)
Aww that's sweet :)
Love the vid and all the U of M apparel :)
i respect the troops
i think i love you for this response
agreed!
can't...stop...watching...these....videos...
i love this video!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm Not Gonna Cry!😥
Oh my God that gets my vote for one of the funniest comments ever on RUclips! LOL
America is an idea. It's believing in freedom and equality. Justice and truth. Kindness and generosity. If you believe in those principles and feel pride in seeing the U.S.A Soldiers and the love they have for their country and can appreciate it, then you're American. Don't care where you live or where you were born friend.
Little Lady meant that!
If you ain't Cav, YOU AIN'T SHIT!!....glad you made it home safe
Damn that teacher!
Love its xxx
If you have a problem with it, write a good ol' heartfelt letter to your congressman expressing your concerns
I went to WPCA!!!!!!!!!!! Thts soooo cool
Hell yeah
He actually made it pretty funny. However he has a point like everyone else commenting. There is always black and white, nothing that is done is totally right or wrong. There are two reasons we are in the middle east, 1. to fight aggressive extremists. 2. strategic interest, AKA oil.
grand rapids?
it's the hometown of janelle, isn't it?!
Can someone tell me what headgear her dad is wearing? I've never seen it before. Does it have a special significance?
Yeah.... That's the hottest teacher ever.
Dave K Amen to that!!!!!!
Dave K I agree.
Dave K dang I just found this lol she was my 3rd grade teacher
That teacher though........
Gotta keep my flying dream alive somehow...thank you USA
Happy Dayz :)
Love the Reunion. Which unit does her father serve In? My husband would have loved to be in a unit with that hat!
Units that were originally cavalry, like the 7th Cavalry Regiment, are authorized to wear the slouch hats. I once saw a military funeral detail from a cavalry regiment. The dress uniform included a slouch hat, riding jacket, knee boots, and spurs.
where is that school? i wanna start over again beacuse of that teacher...
A.j Hilton!!! Wya bro
Yes it does. He's U.S Army 1st Cavalry. Only Cavalry wear that specific headgear.
3rd response and still nobody is saying anything about Sudan. You people are something else.
Didn't disrespect the cover, just the tool wearing it inside.
news really should stop placing them big ass banners at bottom of screen!
How cute! A native american writing in english.
can that teacher come home to me/more serious them dislikes are moorons and cowards id like them to say what they think to us irish.those guys and girls defend not only the us but us in the European sphere as well.god bless them all.
Feel sorry for the bitterness of the 21 people who gave it thumbs down. Their fathers obviously never made it back.
Oh they're all anti war and shit. Oh they're babykillers etc etc etc
I think you went a little too far here man
My brother is in japan for 5 years.
Sorry Im not from USA but when the say "return home" is forever or just for a while? Like just a few days and then back to war? 😭
Oh man that teacher is hot!
that teacher is ssssooo hhhhooootttt. you know what i mean guys? wink wink
Spartan dawgs
No kidding. She was the reason I clicked on the link in the first place...being that YT had her pic in one of the video preview pane still frames.
i'm always wondering who the fuck can dislike these videos, seriously ..
Lurve those V8s
Dad.........Tap Tap Tap Tap Taptap....lol
@jompalaina i know!
that teacher is a babe
teacher looks so scruffy
That's a Cav hat- never disrespect it.
damn onions
I am an European. I am also one who is touched to see the the safe return of a soldier from Afghanistan. I am touched to see the expression of the daughter so emotionally pleased to have her dad return home especially by a surprise visit. But I do not share with the many patriotic views expressed here about American soldiers fighting for our freedom! What freedoms are your soldiers fighting for? What democracy are you fighting for? The war on terrorism has created the passing of legislations such as the Homegrown and the Patriots Acts which have eviscerated the constitution and your civil liberties. Any American can now be incarcerated indefinitely without recourse to a trial. The signing of the NDAA has given the power to the president to assassinate anyone anywhere in the world including Americans. Is this constitutional?
The hypocrisy of the American government has never been so blatant: she claims to fight terrorism and yet she supports and arms al qaeda terrorists in Syria and elsewhere! The crisis in the Ukraine has been caused by the American government having organized a coup which has toppled a legally elected Ukrainian government and allowed nazis, fascists to gain control of the present Ukrainian government. In short, the American government is supporting nazis and fascists in the Ukraine.
Americans live in a nation where they are blinded by propaganda media lies which keep you in complete ignorance. Wars have nothing to do with fighting for democracy or freedoms, - especially when you no longer have a democracy - but everything to do with the control of oil resources and for the IMF to destroy financially other nations that are targeted by corporations.
Like General Wesley Clark revealed in public, it is the Pentagon's intention to invade other countries as part of their agenda and I quote: "This is a memo that describes how we’re going to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran." He made this statement about thirteen years ago!
So, naive Americans talk about soldiers fighting for "our freedoms" when they should be concerned about the freedoms of these countries that are being invaded, bombed and attacked and families being killed for what? You invaded and destroyed Iraq on a pack of lies and Bush can be legally indicted for war crimes.
So, wake up
This American agrees.
difference being that he he didnt have a choice to be there
Am I the only one who see that he's still wearing his hat inside a building??
That teacher is hot
279,759 how many came here just to look at the teacher
payge I heard that name before I think it is in a game yet I cant remember any gamers got any knowledge what game ?
He's the best dad in the world but he's killing innocent kids and family
Who is cutting the onions in these videos 😂
you spell it wrong, is "....sacrificed for our oil."
I want to marry the teacher.
My only problem with these videos is the fact that if the family member/daughter, or in this case a teacher, happens to be hot then the video gets like 50% more views than the other ones.
How come all 13 of my teachers were 50+, fat, and ugly? HOW IN THE HELL IS THAT FAIR!
We asked a teacher last week if we could have a parent surprise their child. The teacher said, NO WAY...Not in our school.
Would you care to repeat this please? Only this time in English.
Can you quote a regulation stating that he can't wear that type of hat indoors?
lmao
