Wonderful story - Long lost brother and sister reunited after 30 years - both serving in the Navy

Two long lost siblings have become reunited after 30 years apart and discovered they both work for the Navy in the same state.
Cmdr. Cinday Murray and her brother, Cheif Aviation Ordnanceman Robert Williamson were separated in the 1970s when their parents separated.
Originally from Denver both brother and sister grew up to enlist and on reuniting discovered they were both working for the Navy in California
The happy moment they had waited thirty years for took place at the Naval Medical Center in San Diego on Friday.
Williamson was just 6 years old the last time he saw his sister.
When their parents separated he stayed with their father, while Murray, 14, moved away with their mother.
Friday, the siblings reconnected with an emotional embrace. Williamson gave his sister an honorable Navy salute and hugged her tightly.
