An army major was emotionally reunited with his family yesterday, meeting his newborn son for the first time.<\/p>\n
Squadron leader William Waugh was greeted by his wife Georgina and ten-day old child Harry at the Tidowrth Barracks in Wiltshire, where 87 other troops were also welcomed back by their loved ones.<\/p>\n
The soldiers, from EGYPT, a tank squadron of the 2nd Royal Tank Regiment, had been on a six-month tour of duty in Helmand province.<\/p>\n
Ms Waugh was overcome with emotion at seeing her brave husband arrive back on UK soil and pleased that her husband can hold their new child.<\/p>\n
"I have been emailing William pictures of our new baby but he has not been receiving them, I think he has only seen one picture and that was when I first gave birth so he is very excited about meeting him for the first time," she added.<\/p>\n
Captain Dan Wright, speaking on behalf of 2RRF, recently paid tribute to locals in Northumberland for turning out to welcome troops home recently, the Northumberland Gazette reported.<\/p>\n
