PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) – It was a feel good reunion Sunday at the Providence Bruins game.

Four-year-old Gunner Oliver was getting ready to play in one of those fun intermission games when his Dad, U.S. Navy officer Christopher Oliver, skated up to his son and gave him a hug months in the making.

Christopher has been away from home for months after serving two tours in the Persian Gulf. Little did Gunner know that Dad would be coming home.
