Kittredge Teacher's Heartwarming Surprise

A Veterans Day Assembly came with an added joy for Tracey Hall.

When Kittredge Elementary School teacher Tracey Hall was asked to speak at an assembly about projects for the troops, she had no idea what was to come next.

As she spoke, Hall's son -- Army Specialist Corey Hall, stationed in Texas  -- walked into the assembly and surprised his mom for Veterans Day visit before re-deploying to Afghanistan, WHDH reports.

Tracey Hall's shock quickly turned to joy. Her son was supposed to deploy directly to Afghanistan from Texas, but he was granted a two-week leave before he's to deploy.
