A British man saved decades ago from a Vietnam orphanage meets his birth mother for the very first time in an emotional moment captured on video.

Watch the touching moment a man is reunited with family long-thought dead, after a touching journey back to his roots.

Vance McElhinney, 43, had nothing but a crumpled baby photograph to show for his life prior to being airlifted to England in a rushed 1975 emergency mission.
