This #MemorialDay, we're revisiting an emotional moment from late last year, when a Penn Trauma celebration for the usnavy turned into a surprise reunion. Major John Pryor, MD, former medical director of Penn Trauma, was killed in action in 2008 while serving as a usarmy combat surgeon in Iraq.

When former colleagues of his dad noticed his name tag, they couldn't believe it. "This was truly a miraculous and divine moment, said trauma surgeon C. William Schwab. "It was absolutely engineered by his father."
