For a man or woman in the military, a care package is a great gift.

You whiners complain about the US until your pathetic country needs money or help. Then its " gimme gimme gimme". You know nothing about history and it shows.

Well soldiers _are_ meant for war, and you know with war, comes deaths. And let’s say all the soldiers in army 1 survived WWIII. If they survived against the attack of army 2, then army 2’s soldiers would’ve died. So yeah

Nothing like a brother who REALLY loves you! Wonderful!

Great job, thank you for your service...🇺🇸

So proud of this family. Thank you for your service and sacrifices. ♥️

He must be a super guy to have a little brother that absolutely loves, and idolizes him.

Some countries don’t have this much respect for their soldiers,it’s cause the soldiers have been directly involved in politics,plundering the national purse for selfish and personal gains only. I’m so happy to see this video. It’s truly inspiring. Makes me smile deeply.

Oue of the smartest things the Framers of the US Constitution did was defang the military in domestic matters. With that guarantee we can be a lot more comfortable around our armed forces and that pays dividends in terms of better support for the troops

I have not cried in a long time till know. That is just so sweet to see how much he loves his brother!!! Thank you to the big brother for your service.

Had me in tears. What a beautiful reunion ❤️

That was fantastic to see the brothers reunited ,certified gold.

There is nothing like brother love. This had me in tears. Hope my grandsons, with their age difference, Love each other this hard.🤧🤧🤧

Fantastic! Way to go! Such a great inspirational story! God bless this family!

What a lovely family.. Amazing a child nowadays would ask for care packages instead of presents for his Birthday!!!... Brought up with respect and love. Well done Mom(and Dad). 💋

I feel so bad for the people that have loved ones in the armed forces, bc I can't go a month without seeing my dad.. My dad is stationed somewhere, but I still get to see him because its not far from where we live. My dad means the world to me he's my hero, he's been there for me through the tough times and will always be. Thanks for severing my country soldiers ❤❤

These videos always make me cry. The way the younger brother kept looking up then hugging the older one again, it was like he had to keep checking to make sure he was actually there 💜💛💜

You got this Navy Vet in tears 😭😭

Raider is a cool little dude...thanks for your service big bro.

I am very happy for the younger brother. I thank the older brother for his service. May God protect our military a.d bring them home soon.

Sweet! Just sweet! Thank you!

What a kind and considerate boy! Never thinks of himself but others [food and gifts to soldiers instead of birthday presents for himself], his brother and his brother's safety. Edit: Aww he even had his brother's hair-do. That is brotherly love for you!

Between the Bootcamp Birthday with care packages and the brother's homecoming I can't see the screen. So beautiful!!

That's a whole basket of love right there. Kid made me cry.

Awesome! Thank you so much to all our men and women in uniform!! You make us proud!!

I love watching these surprises. It makes me wonder if this is like what going to heaven is like...seeing loved ones and being so happy.

A soldier in the making.This is what brotherhood is about

Such a beautiful reunion to see each brother together again. When I was young girl my father was in the army and I was praying for his safe return and I was the first one to see him when he came back home. I salute all the brave men and women who served our country and my prayers goes out to them and their family.

This Video has touched my heart; the tears are dripping on the phone while I write. Great video

That brought tears. Bless you two guys.

I'm glad you're older, brother's home, safe and sound, he deserves to be home, safe and sound.

OOOOOO FATHER GOD, PLEASE, KEEP THE LOVING FAMILY MEMBERS SAFE FOR THY GLORY! WHAT A DIFFERENCE: WHEN THERE'S LOVE, UNITY AMONG THE FAMILY MEMBER. MY LORD! I HAVE TEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARS......

I've have told my family if there was a war and the draft was needed, I told my family that I would step in for my son. The reason for that is he is a special needs young man and this retired Navy Veteran will take his place instead. 💖
