A soldier and his father
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that a father was very happy as his son got commissioned into the US military as a marine corps member.
To honour his son, Lt Fisher, he gave him his very first salute. During the ceremony, the dad commended his child on how he has been respectful to people. He added that he made his job as a parent easier.
Just when he was going to give Fisher the salute, the man cried as he struggled hard to hold back his tears. After coming to the salute, he shook his hand in a military fashion before they finally hugged.
