(Columbia, SC) -- A soldier is back home with the family he hasn't seen in almost a year.
National Guard Sergeant Joshua Bixler was in Afghanistan for 320 days before yesterday's homecoming.
Bixler's wife and four kids greeted him at Columbia Metropolitan Airport with big hugs.
Bixler told WACH Fox News as soon as he saw his kids, he just wanted them to come running into his arms.
