Burnt Hills-Ballston Lake High School graduate Zak Smith entered the Navy after graduation and hasn’t been home in six months–until recently. Last week Zak arrived home earlier than planned but kept it a secret in order to surprise his family for the holidays. Zak showed up at Charlton Heights Elementary School, Ballston Lake, NY, where his mother works and his sister attends third grade. Watch the pure shock and joy they experience after seeing Zak.
