Wonderful video, draws very close parallels to part of the story told in If I Should Fall, Trooper Marc Diab did almost the same thing - arriving home early to surprise his mom and girlfriend. If you have not heard of this film, please, anyone, feel free to watch the trailer on our channel. The DVD is available now and proceeds go towards the Military families Fund and The Marc Diab Children's Foundation. Again, thank you.
Of course you should be proud of your service, you did it well and you came back alright. Really happy you shared this, always great to see the reaction of the familys :)
@andydever I know whatcha meen. My dad went to iraq and Afghanistan and when I got home from school one day, he was chillin in the pantry. I went to get a snack and my dad was there.... Started BALLLINN MY EYYEESS OUUTTTT!!!!
Thank you for your service. WOW what a surprise. That is awesome, that present didn't have a chance when she seen you. lol I seen your face when she was hugging you and I knew you couldn't breathe. AGAIN THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE..
Hi. I'm a television producer that is interested in using your surprise coming home video in a television series about soldiers returning home to surprise their loved ones. I apologize for informality doing asking through a post but it's the only way I think I can message you on YouTube. You should have received a message earlier with my work contact information as well as show the show title information. I’m sure you’re very familiar with it. Thanks for sharing
always love and hold your mum as much as you can, because one day she wont be there for you to hold. i miss my mum sooooo much. love this video. stay safe. paul manchester england.
I have met quite a few Canadian soldiers over here in the Middle East and i know you guys dont get enough cheers (more jeers) from your own people so from one soldier to another, im glad you made it home to see your family. Thanks for all your help over here. You guys are great.
this is really inspiring:) I love watching all these videos with all these soldiers' homecoming, very touching...Wish you and your family all the best:)
@azninvazn627 I was a member of 1st Battalion, The Royal Canadian Regiment. The American equivalent would be an Infantryman in the Army. The uniform is CADPAT.
@CyanoticFuture But judging by your nose,I would have guessed Italian or Jewish HAHAA JK JK JK, And i can tell you canadian, who the hell says SON OF A B..? Anyhow, good to see one of out northern neighbors finest return home safely in one piece.

Saw your patch, I was on 1-10 as well with recce sqn. I came home just as my Mom started watching the show by Billy Ray Cyrus about homecomings. My rents are divorced but are amicable for the most part....Mom threatened to kill my Dad if we tried this...so we had to cancel our plans.fml
This made me cry :*). My son is a serving soldier with the British army and he only came home last week froma tour of afgan. I squeezed my soldier just as tight when he came home lol :) xxx
awesome video and thanks for sharing great to see our boys sharing their surprise welcome homes thanks for the job you do serving our country overseas!
I know it's a bit late, but I'm glad you made it home :). Really makes me happy to see. My friend's mother got a flag, but glad your mother got you in the flesh.
It's great to have you back Rob! Although I heard more from you when away :P I hope everything is going amazing for you. Welcome home. Don't be a stranger
Welcome back home!!
