This is the tearjerking moment an eight-year-old boy finds his Army father hiding in the trunk of a car on the school pick-up.
The footage was captured by Phillip's mother, Nicole, 29, at his elementary school in Oklahoma.
Phillip couldn’t believe his eyes as he peered over the back seat of his family’s SUV to discover his father, Joseph Frey, 29, had returned home after a year in the Middle East.
As Phillip gets into the SUV, he asks Nicole why she is recording to which she replies: 'I got you a surprise.'
When Phillip expresses his excitement, she then tells him to find it prompting him to look around the interior.
As Phillip turns to face the back of the vehicle, his father pops up from behind the backseat.
