Little Girl Interrupts Military Service to Hug Her Soldier Dad

It has been nine months since her soldier dad left for a tour of the Middle East – so this little girl wasn’t going to let military protocol stand in the way of welcoming him home.

In the video, the little girl runs out in the middle of the welcome service and runs over to Lt Daniel Ogelsby in front of everyone in the hall.

The soldiers from the 3rd Armored Brigade Combat Team had just returned from a training mission in Kuwait, where they were the closest ground troops to the conflict in Syria training where training American allies to counter the ISIS threat.
