Athletic trainer stunned by a halftime reunion with her Army brother

A lighthearted Christmas wrapping contest turned into a surprise reunion for high school athletic trainer, Jamie Langford McQueen.

During halftime at a Spain Park High School basketball game in Hoover, Alabama, McQueen, was blindfolded and told to wrap a Christmas gift in competition with a couple of contestants. However, McQueen was unaware it was all a setup.

That's because when the blindfold was removed, she was greeted by the sight of her twin brother, John Tyson (JT) Langford, who she hadn't seen for two years due to his deployment overseas with the Army.

The emotional reunion was made even more poignant by the presence of Jamie's students holding up an American flag as a backdrop to symbolize her brother's return home.

Watch the video below to see the sweet sibling surprise.
