A soldier who served in Afghanistan’s surprise for his wife and kids has gone viral again---just in time for Memorial Day.

Captain Hyrum Bronson, a U.S. Air Force doctor, had been in the country for six months. He snuck up on them at a beach in Okinawa, Japan.

She wrote: “After being in Afghanistan for 6 months and 3 months of training in the States before that with only a short month home in between, he is finally home! We thought he was coming home 3 weeks from now, but he is sneaky. We can’t believe he is finally back home with us!”

As he emerges, he says, “Mrs. Bronson, your husband is here reporting for duty.”
