At the base, Keason's family, friends and Robins employees got together to help him to unwrap everything. 

They also made Keaton an honorary squadron member. They gifted him a coin and sticker to honor the achievement.

Keason received several gifts including a PS5, a TV, and a basketball hoop.

He said his favorite gift was an Apple Watch.
