FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) -- The Christmas wish of a military family in Columbia City came true Friday. Their soldier walked off a plane in Fort Wayne dressed as Santa.

Soldier Wes Jackson had told his two young sons he wouldn't be home for the holidays this year. Instead, he surprised them in a way he hopes they'll never forget.

"That's all Kaleb's been asking for is for Daddy to be home so we thought this was the best way," wife of soldier Beth Jackson said.

The Jackson family thought they were at the Fort Wayne Airport to meet Santa. Instead they were there to welcome home their husband, son, dad, brother.

Soldier Wes Jackson was in Afghanistan for 12 months.

He says he couldn't wait to see the look on his two sons faces.
