This emotional video was posted on the tear-jerking Welcome Home Blog over a week ago, but it has only seriously started to trend now. It currently stands with over 425,000 views, and is further featured on ABCNews, Military, Babble, and HuffPost. 

Last May, for his son’s Star Wars birthday party, US Navy sailor dad made a special trip home to surprise his son. To incorporate the surprise with the party, dad dressed up as Darth Vader and battled his son in a light saber duel.
