A home-bound soldier gets a well-deserved welcome from not one surprised grandparent, but four!
Private First Class Harrison Shirah hadn't seen his family since Christmas. He is in the 82nd Airborne Division stationed at Fort Liberty in North Carolina. The unit is an active infantry division that specializes in parachute assault operations.
When Harrison found out he was approved for leave in June, he and his mom hatched a plan to surprise all four of his grandparents with his return home.
Watch these shocked grandparents scream for joy when their soldier grandson returns home.
Not only was it the first time they'd seen him in months, but it was also their first time seeing him in his uniform with his red beret. Berets are worn in the U.S. military to signify branches, rank and skill.
Harrison's return was met with screams of excitement from his grandparents as their beloved soldier walked through the door and into their arms.
