Yahoo Finance Parents moved to tears after Marine son surprises them for Christmas
A Minneapolis family was so stunned by their Marine son’s surprise visit, they couldn’t control themselves.
Logan left for the marines in June, but due to the pandemic, his family was unable to see him graduate in September. Logan’s parents didn’t expect to see him until spring of 2021 — and certainly not in time for the holidays this year.
But in October, Logan contacted his sister Taylor to orchestrate a surprise visit. The Marine received orders that he could return home in December. To pull the secret off, Taylor told her parents she needed to drop something off for the truck one day. Then she recorded her parents’ reaction when she showed up with her brother.

In the footage, Logan knocked on the door in full uniform. When he opened it, his mother shrieked and cried. Soon after, his father walked into the room, equally as shocked. The three hugged and then the two parents proceeded to use a few bleeped out words to describe their utter joy.
