This was sent to me a while ago, have watched it a number of times and still get choked up. How cool would it have been to be there, experience the entire scene and witness that little girl hugging the marine? But don't think for a minute I missed the chick with the sweet shorts....

Loved how the little girl refused the Marine's handshake, and went for the hug. Thanks for sharing this.
