This Commercial Will Make Any Military Dad Cry Giant Man Tears

These commercials tear me up every time I watch one. I can just feel the pain in both the kid and the parent.

New commercial shows the hardships of deployment on military kids.
As a military brat, one thing I know — that all military children know — is that distance is hard. You rely on fuzzy video, short letters, and brief phone calls to bridge the gap, and it’s never really enough to fill the void. Having lived through numerous deployments as a kid, this commercial by a paper and packaging company called “How Life Unfolds” really hits home for anyone who’s ever had a military parent.
