This is the heartwarming moment families were given ten minutes to meet their soldier relatives in training.

Footage shows the emotional father wiping sweat from his son's face while his mother fixed the lad's shirt in Manila, the Philippines on September 9.

However, they were not allowed to talk or interact with their loved ones during the short but sweet reunion as part of the training.

The unique reunion happened on the last day of the six-month program by the Bureau of Corrections for aspiring prison guards.

Once officially on the job, the trainees would be assigned to prisons across the country, including the notorious New Bilibid Prison, which is known for its overcrowding problems, poor living conditions, and hounded by inmate gangs.
