An 18-year-old soldier was reunited with his biological father at a training installment in Missouri, U.S. Army officials said.

Pfc. Brayden Sumare arrived at Fort Leonard Wood in July to complete his initial entry training when he said he noticed something “oddly familiar” about his bay leader whom everyone called “Pops,” according to an Aug. 28 news release from the Fort Leonard Wood Public Affairs Office.

Sumare offered only his last name to the bay leader who was filling out a roster of new arrivals, according to officials.

“Brayden Hunter Sumare?” the bay leader responded, according to the release.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
