It was the first time he’d ever held his only daughter.

A U.S. Marine burst into tears when he met 4-month old Sophia, the baby girl his wife had while he was away in Afghanistan.

“I’m just so happy. Oh, Jesus.”

  1. You should have done a little bit of research Wounded Times before publishing this story.... This guy is NOT a US Marine, nor has he ever served in any branch of the armed forces ever. He is a civilian contractor mechanic that fixes vehicles. Claiming false accolade should be illegal. This guy is taking credit for something men and women have died for, and he shamelessly strolls around telling people he is a Marine??? Dude should be ashamed of himself. Here's a Headline news story for you.... There are people in this world who lie about their Military Service. Air that.

  2. You are right and there are fakers out there. Hmm, considering I am not the reporter and the link is clear where the story came from, maybe you should have researched it and complained to the reporter.

    If what you say is true, then that would have made this a bigger story for New York Daily News!
