Destiny Adams, 9, fourth-grader at West Fork Elementary School, is surprised as her brother, Staff Sgt. Trenton Tillman, walks onto the stage Monday at the school in West Fork as teacher Karen Crowder looks on. Tillman has been deployed to many bases with the Air Force, including some in England, Afghanistan and now in South Carolina. Destiny hadn’t seen her brother in five years. Tillman surprised her at the school before giving a brief talk to students. Tillman will be visiting with his family until Dec. 14.
