Ben went on to say he had recently seen a television program where little girls ran up to their father to give him a hug after he had returned from war. It really got him all in his feelings.
He said, “I can’t imagine walking in the door and seeing my little girl run up to me and be like, ‘Dad, you’re home.’ That just crushes me, and it excites me, and it makes me feel everything. I know I’m going to feel everything and that’s what’s so worrisome for me is what it’s going to do to me.”
