A Texas high school senior was moved to tears when his Navy dad—who had been stationed overseas—flew from 17 hours away to surprise him at his graduation ceremony.

On June 4, an hour before the Brackenridge High School graduation was going to begin, volunteer staff informed graduation coordinators that the father of one of the seniors, Petty Officer 1st Class David Castillo, had just arrived at the Alamo Convocation Center in San Antonio from his Navy post in the South China Sea.
