Pittsburgh Reservists get surprse reunion during CNN broadcast

Air Force Reservists Senior Airmen Domenic Mash and Keith Graft surprised their wives on the set of "Headline News Morning Express with Robin Meade" show Sept. 14, during the "Salute to the Troops" segment. Katlyn Mash and Lauren Graft gave birth to their children in August while their husbands were deployed to Afghanistan.

Katlyn and Lauren were brought to the show to do the live salute, not knowing that their husbands were secretly brought home for the surprise reunion, which was a first for the daily segment on Headline News.
