All father ever wants are for his kids to do better than they ever did. He did a good job with his son, a true father.
Not all fathers. But those that do are the ones who are positive and active in their children's lives. This father was there for his son. ❤
Correction- He did an awesome JOB👌🏿, Black fathers are Necessary....
Truth. I want my daughter to do better than I ever have in life. She is well on her way on that path, and I'm so proud of her even if she is only 11. She's well on her to do an outstanding job in our society. What an amazing kiddo she is!! Everyone loves her!
I separated as a SSGT of the greatest Air Force in the world. Her dad just made Senior, always told him he'd be CMSgt someday-- her step mother, commissioned. Outstanding role models she has in her life, and I want her to be and feel no need to ever "survive" -- but live her best life.
Some days, I am saddened that I'm not with her as I once used to, but it was in the BEST interest of her. Not to be selfish and fight-- knowing that I do not have the mental capacity due to PTSD-- I'm a great mother to care for her when she visits, but ultimately - I'm NOT the better parent due to instability in being able to hold a job. I do have my Masters and she swears up and down how proud she is, but the perception I have of myself -- just doesn't fit with what I want her to perceive of HERSELF. I want her to KNOW her worth and her kindred spirit -- so I ensure she does. But I feel I lack so much, I couldn't give her the quality and well rounded life she deserves.
the way the father was holding back tears, you could tell he was proud of his boy.
The only time I saw my grandfather (WWII Marine Veteran) cry is when I received my commission in the US Marines. He was like a father to me he raised me from age 9. I hope I made him proud.
@@ThomasAAnderson-gi5qti can bet you did. As a greatful citizen and from a military family it may not mean a fucking thing but i am honored that you both exist.
@garretburnette5286 Thank you and you are welcome. It means more than I can express. It was an honor to have served our country.
@@ThomasAAnderson-gi5qt in my eyes you did the fucking greatest decision yiu can make.
I was a fool when I was younger. Biggest regret of my life.
Nothing is more admirable to me.
Can you imagine being a fucking Marine in the pacific in the 40s ? HolyShit
Your granad father is a legend.
Legit LEGEND. Imagine what they say about those Marines in another 200 years.
Have a good day my friend. Love&Respect.
@garretburnette5286 2002-2018 I regret taking "retirement". Brother, there are ways you can serve our country when the next opportunity arises seize it.
My grandfather was a badass devil dog 1st Marine Division. The tools they had to fight with against fortified positions while being greatly outnumbered is that legend. He used to say: You want something done call the Army, you want something done right call the Marine Corps.
Have a good one. Love & respect back brother.
My youngest son followed the family Army tradition it was the proudest day of my life that he followed my footsteps, after I served 20 years in the US Army. My family has always served our country. A proud American of Puerto Rican heritage.
I took also plan on serving 20 years in the Army. Following my grandfather's footsteps
Boricua!
Pelo que buen honol, espelo que aplendan a ablal a usar la L.... r
THANK YOU SIR
Thank you and your family for your service. ❤
It was a wonderful day when I was promoted to be a lieutenant in my fire department, my dad a Navy vet who served in Vietnam, was able to pin my silver bars on my collar, and he got to do it in the very living room where I as a little toddler once crawled all over his lap like he was my personal jungle gym. So many special moments in that room. And now the pride he had having the honor to personally pin me, my dad who is now wheelchair bound, managed to stand up that day just long enough to pin me and give a hug.
What a wonderful story. 🥺
To hear this hardened veteran's voice crack with emotion melted my heart.
Mines too 🥹 He was proud, very proud of his son
i will admit i am not a very emotional person but this one brought tears in my eyes....soooo beautiful
While his father has proved his worth, his Butter Bar son is just taking his first step.
Big time
@@cwsfan2930What's with underhanded negativity😮
Hearing a hardened Marine, choking back tears, hits you right in the feels
Facts.
All I heard was that baby crying
ready to fight the true enemy of America: Socialism and autocracy of Russia and China!
hardened Marines are also human.
People normally think that marines are crazy sons of bitches (which they are) but they have a heart.
Even though I’ll never have this, I’ll be proud of who I am and the individual I seek to be now and then. Semper Fi, brothers, please pray for my brother
Here is the Dream and Prayer of Every parent Alive!!!!!.
Congratulations to you both, Sirs!.
Bro. That hit me. What a Proud father he is. He raised a heck of a Son. Thank you both for your Service and Sacrifice for this Country and it's Very Proud Citizens.
Amen
This had me ugly cry. When the father’s voice trembles. Oh my.
@@jeannetterodriguez4663 right????
We are forever in your debt
The kid and the fuckin phone alarm hafd me DEAD
Absolute chaos and I love it
It’s real life man you can’t get more real.
The phone alarm fucked things up, but I would like to believe that’s the grandchild/child and future generation marine throwing a hissy fit. He’s gonna make a great Drill Sergeant one day.
Hahaha thank you bro .. I was about to cry .
Hoodtivities
His father definitely had a flashback since the day his son first born and saw how much he had grown.
Ok, I don’t cry easily but this made me cry. Raising kids who turn out right is a double blessing. Loved this!❤
Addressed his son as "Sir"! Dad, NCO, son CO. This is dope
His boy outranks him.
That’s a salty ass Master Sergeant and a fresh faced LT, they know who actually outranks who 😂😂😂

*Master Sargeants* are next to GOD, everyone else falls, in line below that.
It really is❤️🔥❤️🔥
@@prestonjones1653 And mine outranked me, it was an honor☺️
His son became a CO and his proud father, a high ranking NCO gave him his first salute. Very touching moment.
My father is a retired colonel, and im a lieutenant, he salute me because he’s proud of what i became
CO is commanding officer and a msgt is a snco
His son is a bootenant
So? His son could be a CO one day
How did his son become a co before him?
What a moment in time this is from Father to Son that will never be forgotten. The day your Dad gave you, your very his first Salute and knowing he's extremely proud of You!... Enough said..
Spechless and Priceless. Everytime that I see videos like this make me cry too. My son is a Marine and I'm so proud of him that he don't even understand why.. He is my only son, we went thru a lot in life and see him today as a Marine and a Man, make me feel fullfilled. God Bless and protect you and all our Marine's !!
Not only is he a proud Marine, but he is also a proud father, fighting back tears. 🫡 Oorah!!!
Oorah!!!

Are you an NCO? and if so, how does it feel having your son outrank you?

Two REAL men. Thank you for your service sir's.
It's quite admirable to watch this. A father couldn't be more proud of a son. ❤

Hey brother once a Marine, always a Marine. Semper fi
Hell I’m not a Marine and I have tears in my eyes
@@HunterLvyiXIII I was never a Marine; is it improper for me to say Semper Fidelis to a Marine? (Seriously and respectfully asking)
I'm not a Marine........AGREED!
@@vectorm4 I used to live on a cul de sac by the back gate of Camp Pendleton in CA. Each of my neighbors were Marines. They told me it wasn’t frowned upon, even appreciated. You might find a Marine who disagrees, but I’d wager a majority would appreciate you taking the time and thought to say Semper Fi to a someone you knew to be a Marine.
Hard ass dad because he had to be and a loving father because he got to be. Happy for the both of you.
Nah he’s a loving father because he chooses to be. No excuse to be a piss poor parent to your kid, absolutely none

That is an awesome moment. Been able to give your son his first SALUTE. Congratulations to the son. Very PROUD DAD.
What a HONOR for both of these men to be able to accomplish! How lucky we are are to have men of this caliber in our military. Now I'm crying too. As a veteran I salute you both.
That boy was holding back tears as much as his father. Thank you both
That lad was fighting the tears back!! ❤
There was someone chopping onions in that room.
Heartwarming.
@@EvilPaladin11Onion Team 9 was in the house.
Boy hell! More of a man than you. That's a Marine and a gentleman.

Proud family. *Thank you for your sacrifices.*
I cried immediately! What an honor for father and son. Thank you to all who serve. Salud!
As a father myself, i understand how proud you are, Sir. God gives them life, we see all their moments until they become a man.
As a retired Navy veteran, getting your first salute from your father, who's a high-ranking enlisted man, has got to be incredible. Hoorah!!!!
Thank you for your service. Well done!
Thank you for your service, and facts.
I wouldn't call a sergeant a high rank brother but still...
@gwyn4534 He's a 1st Sergeant. Much higher than a Sergeant. And look at his hash marks. Each one represents 4 years of service. He has 5 of them. He's definitely a high-ranking enlisted man. They are highly respected by both officers and enlisted personnel.
Hes a Master Sgt @gwyn4534
The voice crack at the end tells me how proud this man is of his son.

this is how a responsible father is. this is a proud moment for both.
The best gift for any father or parent; is to see their kids turn out well & successful...much respect... twende kazi...🇰🇪
The greatest words a man can hear is “I’m proud of you,” from the Man you respect the most.
By far the best thing i ever hear from my father. Everytime he says he is proud it brings a immense feeling of worth and value.
I tell my son's i am always proud of them whenever i get the chance. . .
Meanwhile I keep disappointing my dad
Indeed it is . Cherish it .
You got damn right!
Becoming a Marine officer is a tough program. Much respect, he earned it.
Did they say his rank? My old eyes cant see it.
@@c7adventures376 Just commissioned so I assume it's second lieutenant.
Yes I’m sure it is but being a marine master sergeant is way more difficult. In about 8 years the marine corps will pay his son what they pay him in retirement.
He’s has a lot to be proud of in his son and I know his son has a whole new appreciation of his father is. After I completed recruit training I finally understood my dad and he became my hero again. Pops had served in ww2 Korea and Vietnam and was one of the first air sea rescue swimmers. He retired in 66 and then went back to Vietnam in 68 and 69 with a cia front company.
I got and went to college and went back in after I graduated college. Dad was the real deal and I was just fortunate to serve.
@@johnathonmullis4234I feel this deeply man. My dad upon coming to my army BCT graduation ceremony had tears in his eyes and finally called me a man for the first time. I asked to be excused and went to the bathroom crying that my dad finally acknowledged me as a man after 18 years😭 he was calling EVERYONE in the family and some of his Army buddies on video chat to talk with me for a very brief moment I received many thumbs ups that day from many people whom I didn't know but felt I shared a connection with it was a magical day
"Hey man! You finally did it!!" Dude I died inside when he finally said that. "You have no idea how proud I am of you son, you finally became the man I knew you were capable of being. I had faith in you when you clearly did not have faith in yourself. I told you when I dropped you off at the recruiter office that you had this and I knew you would graduate. I'm proud of you son" 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 this man did 23 years and retired as a lieutenant never once showed any emotion about anything so for him to bring hugging me and crying was the only time my whole life I saw him show any emotion. I have a picture of him wearing his uniform when I got home and I put mine on as well, we took a picture of us shaking hands and he once again had tears in his eyes I have it hanging to the right of my graduation picture of all my fellow shit heads gathered around. 😅
Those were the best 4 years of my life, 2009-13, however I will never go back.
@@johnathonmullis4234it's always more difficult being enlisted
As a man, it brought tears to my eyes from a Proud marine veteran.
1st Sargent is impressed with his boy…his boy was proud and happy to be a Major
No matter how tough you are. Moments like this will make cry
Speaking of... thank goodness they took that bawling baby OUT!
I found this just kind of acting, too formal for father and son.
Im a true man i only cry when the dog dies at the end, nothing else brings tears to my eyes not even for joy
@@FBugleits called being brainwashed, they are extremely proud of their Boy Scout outfits & belonging to the same lil club
This is all perfect except that greater horonor should be serving his country instead of saying yes sir
That's one very proud father. ❤
so proud he was having a hard time at the end.
A veteran being PROUD of their kids joining the military (The US military at that) is a bad father lol. Like "Ok champ, now it's your turn to kill brown kids in third world countries!"
@jeffclark2869 that's when the water works started for me
That is so AWESOME for this father. You hear his voice cracking as he congratulates his son on his commissioning!!! Those are BOTH REAL MEN!!!May God Bless BOTH of them for MANY years to come!!!
The highest honor and acknowledgement of true respect, one man can offer another. A truly moving moment that only a few can truly appreciate.
You can tell that his dad is really proud of him.
He knows he initiated his son into the devil army😅
@@rockfresh5359Yep, the propaganda that the imperial Japanese military told to their their military personnel and civilians because Americans were too soft to fight with tenacity was something else.

I don’t like the way our military runs that includes those who enlist. I’m human just different values

As a father it was tough to hold back tears this is a priceless moment
Yes indeed a priceless moment for a father to his son rendering a salute to a newly commision officer of US Marine Corps with a tears of joy🥲💓and proud father❤️
YOU HELD EM BACK?!
As a father myself i was bawling, this is awesome.
Congratulations sirs
You could see them both shaking and trying to hold back tears. There’s a lot of love ❤
but girls think they're acting n all faked though
The son was as hard as a rock. His father was emotional and i don’t blame him. What an honour for him.
But don’t you dare put that on him Ricky Bobby. Don’t you dare put that on him.
I mean where in the heck do you get off accusing this young marine of shaking? Where was he shaking? Give me the timestamp fool?
Shame on you! Unbelievable. Have some G damn respect for your soldiers boy.
Is that how yo daddy raised you? To disrespect the troops?
I’m praying for you boy. You got a lot to learn. These young men out here living for you and you can’t even respect them enough not to lie about them.
God have mercy on your soul.
What are you a Chinese spy or something?
This young man out here acting like a spartan, zero emotion, serious as a fusneral and you accusing him of shaking? Shame on you child. Shame. 😊
Shaking? SHAKING?
My sweet lord I can’t get over this.
Accusing our soldier of shaking?
You owe this young man an apology.
You owe all of America an apology you disrespectful child.
You lucky I ain’t in charge. 6 months in prisons for anyone who disrespects our troops the way you just did.
You better praise god we got an old man who don’t know whether the socks above the fire place are for Christmas or because the dryer in the White House broke down.
Shame on you. For real. You people make me so disappointed.

You know the hug that must've happened in private after the ceremony lasted for several minutes, but expressed years of love, sacrifice, and mutual respect.
I have absolute tears! What an honor for BOTH men!
No greater honor than to become a man your father can be proud of 🫡
True
Yeah it is true
This is what i believe it means (in the Bible) when it states to honor your mother and father. It’s not doing everything they say just because they said it. You honor them by the life you live.
Same rule is truth for daughters .
Beautiful. That is one hell of a proud father.
How proud will he be when his son dies fighting a war that's not his?
.They want to be army or actors? so confuse 🥱🥱

Now salute the father for instilling morals and respect into a fine young man.
Amen! A family name to be proud of within and out of the Corps.
Amen brother
❤
This right here….
sorry but just so you know officers dont salute enlisted in the military
Damn that's some intense stuff going on right there. For anyone missing any context, what I can assume from this is that the father, a senior Non-Commissioned Officer with some serious service history is rendering the first official salute to his son, a newly commissioned Junior Officer, meaning the father is, for the first time, actually outranked by his son.
And his father is damn proud! There is a lot wrapped up in this moment.
Absolutely beautiful moment.
Our Marines are a different breed.
Thank you both for your service!
Bustin' with pride.
Not for anything but the father is no longer a non commissioned officer as he is a senior staff commissioned officer and he has done a good job as all marines do
Can't stop crying! 😭Semper fi do or die Respect 💯🙌❤
I can’t stop watching it! The proudness in the dad’s voice when it’s cracking is making my tears going down my face 😢I’m so glad for them
As as former Navy Corpsman who was with the 3rd Marine Division, this is beautiful!!! America's best Semper Fi!!!
A father like this speaks a million words with his tears.
God bless you and protect by all wrong to turn safe home in family !!!
This is so beautiful! I love seeing videos like this. Thank you both for your service and sacrifice to our country. God Bless!
This father should be proud of his son. This was a beautiful moment.
The fact that his voice cracked showed how emotional and proud he was and the son, his legacy seemed so emotional to have his father salute him.... i may not be american or military but i honour and salute anyone who serves his country with honour, dognity and pride.... for its these men and women who gives their lives so that we can sleep at night. I also salute those families who have members serving for their sacrifice also

If you don’t want to see your children do better than you did, there is something wrong with you.
Awesome video.
Every father wants their son to do better. Some have fallen into a pit of dispair and self loathing, but it's there. It's always there.
We'd see this more if fathers were treated as 2nd class citizens. He made a man. A benefit to society .
Hoop rahhh!!
@dianacryer just about to say this lmao. Any normal parent will do anything so that their child's life is better than their own.
An E8 is going to more respected than the lower officer ranks though because they are more knowledgeable. It's important for everyone but especially new officers to have an ounce of humility.

Dad looks like he has been in the marines for a very long time, he probably has seen all kinds of stuff, but seeing his boy graduate as an officer, probably is and will be the most proud moment of his life.

A country who really don't give a rats ass about men and women like him. I say again WE die in vain protecting nothing but ideologies. And yes I'm a proud active duty serving Non-Commioned Officer and I say this with pride. It's sad to a nation so united on one front but oh sooooooo divided on others. 🫡
As a veteran and a father, I doubt I could hold back the tears. What about absolutely beautiful moment.
Priceless!!!!❤❤❤❤
Thank you for your service! Though I'm not a Veteran, it brings me to tears to see a father and son with so much respect, so much is lacking in this world today. I lost my father 3years ago and this reminds me of our relationship. To see two generation of men showing respect for one another. Such a noble, honorable moment.
Thank you sir for your service
Thank you for your Service.
This father barely could, his voice broke so hard even rock would shatter.
Thank you for making your father proud.
This is an absolute tear jerker. You can hear the fathers voice wavering 😢
Every man needs this from his father. Hard for the ones who dont get this.
I can't imagine just how awesome that must be as a father
I _might_ be able to. My grandfather served in the army as a Ranger, and if I joined I can only imagine the look of pride he would give me.
@@ShadowRider711might? If? Why don't you join?
Especially now days. This generation will be lost when their parents are gone. 30 year ole people getting pulled over screaming i need to call my momma. Because they have no father to raise them right.
I haven't stopped watching, knowing his Father is the Master Chief. I salute from Nigeria Sirs
You can feel the pride and that man raised a great man. I want my son to look at me as that son looked at his father. Those are Men of Honor!
Army here only one word describes this CHILLS!!!!! Congratulations Marine Semper Fi from the US army
Thank you for your Service
This is what makes real men cry. Congratulations to both of you gentlemen.
Real men aren't afraid to cry

I Salute you father in bringing up your child and it's much more than an honour to witness this. Good Job son..
Every father wants to live to see this day when his child becomes his senior.. that's true victory of every father and parent on this planet.
I have a 9 yr old son and I have told him to become a better human than me, he is showing glimpses that he will make my dream come true..
This is emotional.
Ooh rah Master Sergeant! You and your wife deserve to be saluted for raising this outstanding young man. Semper Fi brother.
You can tell that daddy is proud as hell.
