God Bless you from Robert in Illinois

I am so sorry for your loss. God Bless from your neighbor. Hugs from the United States. ❤🇺🇲

It is if you would think about it. Semper Fi

This is for ALL Vets.

No. As a veteran I believe those who gave their lives in service to our country deserve their day, Memorial Day.

Of course

It's about a ww2 vet but yeah it's about all vets in general.

My Grandfather was in WWII. Along with my Grandfather, i thank your father and every other Man and Woman in the military today

You tell your father for me thanks for keeping us free. The next time your out and you see a shoulder walking towards you with a hat that says what ever war they served in reach out your hand and say thanks for keeping us free. You will see in his eyes your gratitude that is felt deeper beyond that hand you reach out to thank him.

Thank you so much for your service ❤

My dad was a Sky Soldier, 173rd Airborne 1965-66. Luckily he made it home. Actually, he was extremely lucky. My mom's brother, uncle Jack to me, 1st Infantry (the big red one), was in Nam the same time as dad. Unfortunately, uncle Jack was KIA. My mom's family requested that my dad escort Jack's body home. The Army granted dad two weeks leave to do so. While my dad was home during those two weeks, his whole platoon was killed in an ambush. Though i never got to meet uncle Jack, i wasn't born until '73, he will forever be my hero. Inadvertently through his death, he saved my dad's life. Thank you uncle Jack, i will forever be grateful to you and to every U.S. soldier who gave all, RIP.

my brother para trooped in, rest in peace william Bowman

Sorry about your brother. So thankful him and his fellows soldiers fought so bravely to bring peace and keep our country free. Me and my family are forever indebted. 🇺🇸

God-bless u

I’m so sorry. Such horrible pain losing a sibling. We are a family of 9 kids and we lost our middle brother. It hurts so bad. We were the closet family I knew of. We are no longer close after he passed away. His death broke all of us apart. We are from a long line of military since the Rev War to win this country. God bless your brother and all our military.

As a Vietnam Veteran, U.S Navy, I feel your pain!

Thank you sir! God bless you and all of your fellow veterans for your sacrifices! Unfortunately I was not able to serve due to a birth defect, but I love and respect all of you for serving!

Indeed sir

@@jimmymiller7568 Another year and for once we are not at war with anyone on the world stage. Now, the war is in our own country. Being destroyed from the inside Tearing our people apart. Things that used to unify us now cause divide. An insurrection of the worst kind leaves our people restless. In all our history as a country I have never seen or heard of such strong distaste and dislike for our president and Congress. Will there be a war? Another Civil War? Have we failed as soldiers to protect our country from enemies foreign and DOMESTIC?

@@pmritzen2597 you’re correct. By the insurrection is very questionable. Most who were there, because of the disgust both parties have done. They’re the ones dividing this country. Installing a demented pedophile as a puppet with a joker, is a distraction so that they can keep pushing their agenda. Congress is a disgrace. They’re the ones holding power, not a sitting President. Doesn’t matter if they elected (installed) or if we the people elected him. Ridiculous. How do people not see this?

Amen, for all the crap they talk about Billy Ray they ignore this song and that is sad!

Hello Sharon I must say that I have enormous respect for you considering the manner in which I have made contact with you. I am very glad you are a fan of mine. Where are you watching from?

Very truly said !

Thank you for saying children as well! You are the first person I've seen say children in your comment. People think that children didnt do anything during the war but they did. They had to watch their mom or dad go to war!

Thanks thomas!

Thank you for your service and sacrifices.

I love everything about you

Thank you. I was proud to serve my country. 1975 to 1980 US Army.

Many Americans don't have a clue and don't really care what freedom really means.

May god watch over your son safety and take care over final rest of your dad and husband.

I do read your heartwarming comments and I truly appreciate all.

Don’t forget we Australian’s stood by your side with courage and pride and gave all as well.

Thanks to the down under mates, too.

@@alannagray8411 Australia and the United States share the honor of fighting to defend other countries even though ours weren’t directly threatened during WWII (not like other countries at least) because we knew it was the right thing to do.

@@Quincy_Morris The US was already quietly supporting the war by sending arms to Britain without a payment agreement in the winter of 1940 and in July 1941 Marines were sent to Iceland to relieve a British garrison there as well as providing naval escorts to British ships n open waters.. The US then also placed sanctions on Japan cutting off their oil supply along with the Dutch and the British in Indochina. This followed by the American-controlled Philippines having the potential to block shipping routes from southeast Asia to Japan caused Tokyo to decide to a mount pre-emptive attack against both the Philippines and the American fleet at Pearl Harbour at the same time. This of course infuriated the US and they entered the war in their fullest capacity in 1941.

Not just Americans also us Canadians who gave ALL!!

cass scott RIP.

But "SHINBONE WANTS STATEHOOD" SO FUCK #PurpleDragonOPSEC!!! Because he's #FuckingBillyBadass!!!

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE AND THEIR FAMILIES WHO HAVE PUT THEIR LIVES ON THE LINE PROTECTING & FIGHTING FOR OUR COUNTRY, MY FAMILY AND MY CHILDREN'S FUTURE. WE PRAY FOR YOU EVERYDAY THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS

Everytime I nhear this song I am reminded that sometimes heroes came home, but they were never the same. War is Hell Truth 100% To all that served & fought so we could be free. Thank You from the bo%om of my he@rt.

❤

RANDAL, LEWIS. CRABTREE " Branch of Service {Army} - Casualty of Vietnam War Year 1969. I dedicate this song to him. And so many other's who fought and died. For America. And American Freedom. We sometimes allow it to slip our minds. That Freedom isn't free. Someone has to die for every second of freedom we as Americans enjoy on a daily basis. These are usually very young men and women. Not much older than 19 & 20 year's old. This is an amazing Patriotic song. One of my favorite ones of all... GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!

Peggy Bernath I agree with you on that one. This song says it all about the men and women of the United States of America. If it wasn't for them, this country wouldn't be what it is today. So many had to die. So we could continue on with our daily lives. And live happily with our family's and friends.

@@patrickyoung2117 Elegant, and Eloquent. Thank-You for putting feet to the fire. I could not have said it better. Thank-You All, this day, Memorial Day 5/25/20 for your Service and Sacrifice.

Ah toast, to SSGT Michael Rowe on this Memorial Day 5/25/20, may he Rest-In-Peace with "HONOR", THANK-YOU for your service.

Thank you for your service.

Leo Gaytan, welcome home brother from a 10 year US Army Special Forces veteran that did two tours in Vietnam doing medevac duty. I rarely ever discussed my time "over there" until my 3rd visit to "the Wall" when I met three guys that our team helped save. My childhood friend died over there in 1967. It was almost impossible to be his US military honor escort guard to bring him home, but I made it happen thanks to then Senator Ed Muskie.

Agreed

Some gave all brother

It's shame. The politicians and seat warmers are shamed by the strength of those who fight.

I work with the DAV, to promote better life circumstances for them. The old system still prevails with some small improvements, though!

When I hear about a veteran being homeless, makes my heart hurt! That person fought for our freedom and we cannot make sure they have food and a place to sleep! Shame on US! Something is very wrong with this Government! Very wrong!

There are places here locally that have hired our vets and they continue to hire them every opportunity they get. There is a taxi company down around the corner from where i live. One of my drivers is a vet and when he told me that. I broke down and cried because i was proud of having a vet as a driver and i thanked him so many times for his service and then he told me that his brother also served and it really touched my heart to know that and i told him to tell his brother thank you for his service

Thank you Rhonda as a Nam Vet it does my heart good to see that there are people like that understand and appreciates my and brothers and sister"s service.

Yeah, Some gave all yet some gave all after coming home to what we take a knee for now. What! Reply

@@rob29209 Shameful isn't it...it's sort of like the disrespect the Vietnam Vets received coming home because of the actions of people like Jane Fonda (who NEVER served) just like those that take a knee.
