This Video About a Pilot Flying His Fallen Vietnam War Hero Dad Home Will Move You to Tears

Bryan Knight used to watch every prisoner of war step off their planes when they returned to the U.S. during the Vietnam War, hoping one of them would be his dad.

"Your job and your duty as a family and as a child is to have hope," Bryan Knight, a pilot for Southwest, said in a video released by the airline on Friday. "As a kid, you somehow think if you don't do that, you're somehow now going to be responsible for him being lost."

Knight was 5 years old the last time he saw his dad alive. They said farewell at Dallas Love Field Airport before Air Force Col. Roy Knight shipped off to Vietnam.

I’m at the airport in Dallas, waiting for my flight home to DC from El Paso, and something incredible is happening.
