Ffdp version of blue on black. Former combat medic here and there's almost zero chance i would do it again. Nearly all the politicians do not respect the founding principles and constitution of the USA. Yes there were problems in 1776 and today but the country was not built on woke victimhood.👍🇺🇸🍻

one thing I noticed, FFDP, the vet who was wounded first was the one that made it out the best. His wounds were visible and well treated, those of us who saw our brothers wounded and killed are the ones carrying injuries that cannot be seen and are hard to treat.

I am one of those 460,000 Veterans suffering from PTSD I had to fight for my 100% disability for over 20 years before I got it. If it wasn't for my wife telling me to not give up and dispute it every time they denied me for this or that I would have nothing. I was in Desert Storm on the ground was in the middle of it back in 91 and the Sh^% I saw and had to endure was to much for me. and wouldn't you know it the PTSD was the hardest disability for me to get approved, but I finally got it.. God this video hits home. thank you.

I am 72 years old. My father took part in world war 2 landing on Normandy Beach...my brother spent 22 years in the army with 1 tour in Korea, and 2 tours in Vietnam. My late husband was drafted upon his graduation from highschool and sent to Vietnam. He came home 13 months later and was never the same. So Pegasus I understand your frustrations because I have the same. Every male in my family has served in a wartime event. I personally want to scream in anger and frustration in what I am witnessing today. Thank you for your faith, thank you for your honesty, I'm a fan, Dian Hall.

I don't have much of a life anymore and spend most of my time alone. But it is what it is and there are a lot more in worse shape than me. Never forget, freedom comes with a price.

@Black Pegasus, Thank you for reacting to this video. It is very powerful and as a Veteran it hits home with me. The one part that really got me is were the officer is arresting the Veteran and noticed they have the same tat, which is from their unit or platoon. This has happened to me. I have issues with potholes and man holes due to PTSD, when I was driving on the road I was serving to avoid them. A police officer pulled me over. Now on the back of my car I had the Screaming Eagle from Fort Campbell and a sticker that said Retired Veteran. Well when the officer approached my window, he asked for my license and registration and all that. Then he looked at me and said the most awesome thing ever. He said I got you. At that point I started to weep because it meant a lot to me, then I noticed that he has the Screaming Eagle tat on his arm which represents Fort Campbell. So he asked me where I was going, I told him I was going to visit my mother and had about 30 miles to go. He then told me to follow him after I gave him my mother's address. So he put on his lights and I followed him as he swerved the pot holes and man holes I did the same. When we finally arrived at my mother's house, I got out of my car and he did the same and gave me a big hug and said I am safe. So of you who may read this will know what I mean.

Lost my wife and kids over it. I tried to get help when i got out, but miraculously the VA couldnt help, as i had lost my paperwork being homeless. Over the last 20 years I managed to find a good woman to help me through these things, and created another family.

I am hopeful that your presentation here and commentary will move more people to not so easily disregard or discard the few among the many who served.

I’m a 3rd generation soldier (now out) and my son is in the NG. One of the most alarming statistics is that only 1% of our population serve and of those that do 70% of new recruits come from military families. 60% of veterans under 40 come from military families. The US has always had professional soldier families within the services, but these have mostly been in the Officer Corp. We are quickly creating a Warrior Class in our society. That means we are ever more dependent upon the same families, and then we see our brothers and sisters treated like this. We as a society have to better.

Agreed, though a large part of it is that society sees what happens to soldiers when they retire from service, the amount of pay for potential risk and probably a dozen other things and goes "Yeah, no." It doesn't help that going in to the army is being seen as more and more of a 'poor person' decision. The kind of mentality of 'oh you can't get a good job or make a decent wage, then go to the military' type of thing. Which I find to be disgusting honestly. And that we're just glorifying things like actors, high-paying jobs and the like instead of soldiers, astronauts, firefighters, police, etc. Less kids grow up wanting to join the military sadly. (or any of the other things) Or you can be like me, who basically tries tearing down a recruiter's office to join the military and gets told, 'No, you're just 10lbs too fat and we no longer take in high-school dropouts." Which I wouldn't be surprised if there's a decent chunk of people wanting to join the military, but we just don't meet the requirements 100%.

My dad too. AO can really do a number on veterans, their children, and grandchildren. A lot of illnesses, birth defects, etc. Then the care the veterans get from the VA is crap. My dad has secondary issues arising from the Peripheral Neuropathy he got from AO. He absolutely refuses to go to the VA for anything serious. He had a bleeding ulcer caused by taking too much ibuprofen and aleve and it almost killed him. The VA wanted to take a wait and see approach. Thankfully my step mom basically said FU and quickly worked to get him transferred to a "regular" hospital. Since then he hasn't gone back. He's still working at 75 to pay for health insurance so he can keep it that way.

My son was one of those veteran's. He was a Marine. At times homeless. He was too proud to ask for help, so when we tried to help, he would push away. We were able to help him through some of his rough times and thought things were much better for him. He became a helo flight instructor and had a great setup. He was living in the bunk house of a very wealthy family of farmers in Missouri training them to do their own crop dusting. He was helping them to start a flight school to train other farmers in the area. Then things took a bad turn and he took his life. Left his 6 year old son and a family who loved him more then he could ever believe. People just don't understand the pressures veteran's have reintegration back into society when they leave military service. This song always touches me. I have been wanting to start a veteran's village in Tampa Florida for some time. My plan would to help them be self sufficient by receiving much needed counseling, job training, a wood and auto shop, and grow their own community garden. If you want to help make it a reality, I would forever be grateful.

I showed her THIS song and she immediately started crying and understood why I listen to this kind of music. See, her younger brother served in Iraq. I was in the Army. He was the one providing security escorts to supply convoys. If you know, you know what they went though. They were the hardest hit during the 2000's Iraq war.

BP, thank you for your kind words and obvious respect towards veterans. Yes, we have a broken system in this country that needs to be fixed. I served 26+ years because I love this country and understand what is at risk. I have no regrets for serving and don't need thanks for it. But I have to say that the new world we are dealing with socially and politically very well might destroy the county that so many have served to protect.

I see that you get it. As much as the world has changed, it still hasn't changed that much. There are still dragons out there seeking what they don't have and yet want...which require dragon slayers to keep away. That sounds like a juvenile way to explain things, but it's true, and people like us understand it.

I joined to serve my country. I deployed because it was my duty/commitment. I FOUGHT & CONTINUED THE FIGHT For our brothers and sisters to our left & right. I am PROUD to have served. If i was asked to go back it would be considered my HONOR! Despite the fact I was discarded like a piece of garbage by the government. I would pick up my rifle & throw my aid bag on my back without a second thought!!! I was 26' from the point of impact of a 500lb GBU-12 laser guided bomb dropped by our own Air Force. Miraculously I'm still here but suffer from PTSD, TBI, anxiety, hearing issues, nerve damage etc... And I had to fight 10 times harder than I did on my deployment just so that I could barely reach 80% disabled I don't make enough to support just myself let alone my family. If it wasn't for my wife my kids my mom I would be one of those homeless veterans for sure without a doubt. My deployment was captured by video from all the soldiers and my chaplain and he turned that into a documentary that I'm in called "No Greater Love" on prime video. It has the "ACTUAL" bomb that blew me and 13 of my guys up. The furthest person from point of impact was about 50'. We were not in a vehicle or building and we're all still here. It's an amazing documentary It even tells a story of one of my captains in my battalion that got shot in the head fell 250 ft off a cliff not down a hill off a straight face cliff landed on his back We couldn't get a helicopter to him for hours because of the firefight and the location he was in. We got him medevaced he was then transferred to Germany where he received care and after 3 months he came back to Afghanistan to finish out the deployment with his troops This is the stuff that soldiers do for people and the fact that we're all suffering even people that get 100% disability and receive maximum benefits It's wonderful to see when that happens but it's still not enough We still suffer... Hey I’m watching No Greater Love. Check it out now on Prime Video! watch.amazon.com/detail?gti=amzn1.dv.gti.6ab597b9-a03b-0446-97d8-7d13c93d8a48&ref_=atv_lp_share_mv&r=web ☝🏼I'm actually in this one. SPC Lucas Hunt Combat Medic 2/237inf NO SLACK 101st airborne/air assault. This one 👇🏼 is about 3 different units including mine. I'm not seen in it but I was in every mission shown with 2nd Battalion look for the Clubs(like from a deck of cards) on the helmets that's us. The last fire fight of this documentary took place 2 weeks before we came home. 6 US soldiers lost their lives in the first 5 minutes of the fire fight. Hey I’m watching The Hornet's Nest. Check it out now on Prime Video! watch.amazon.com/detail?gti=amzn1.dv.gti.58ae4fa3-5949-f0ea-8e05-786065112061&ref_=atv_lp_share_mv&r=web ⚠️DISCLAIMER ⚠️ THESE DOCUMENTARIES ARE NOT REENACTMENTS. ALL OF THESE FIREFIGHTS ALL OF THIS FOOTAGE WAS FILMED LIVE IN COUNTRY SO IF YOU WERE A PERSON YOU'RE WATCHING WITH THIS SUFFERS FROM COMBAT-RELATED PTSD AND IS EASILY TRIGGERED DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT LET THEM WATCH THIS WITHOUT A WARNING PROVIDED FIRST OR AT LEAST ALLOW THEM TO PREPARE FOR WHAT THEY'RE ABOUT TO SEE THAT'S AS MUCH A WARNING FOR THE VETERAN AND FOR THE PEOPLE AROUND HIM OR HER!!⚠️

Thank you so much for your input on this video. I am a Staff Sargent of the US Marine Corps. I have been in combat and this is pretty much to the truth as you can get. I have lost several of my brothers during my time in service. When you are in war your brothers and sisters that you are stationed with are the only family that you have, and losing one of them is just as bad as losing a real family member. The VA doesn't like to help veterans because of funding. But no matter what those service members signed a contract to serve and protect the United States of America. No matter on their discharge the United States of America should be taking care of them. I myself have been out of the Marines for 23 years now and I still have been having issues with the VA. I've had 3 strokes and 3 craniotomies and have been left with having uncontrollable seizures that can kill me. I've been shot, blown up in a Humvee ( do to an IED) lost hearing in pretty much and suffer from PTSD. But I wanted to thank you for your review on this song and, because I am glad that someone sees it now.

US ARMY OIF vet here. 5 years in avionics. First woman in my family to serve, and my family's served in just about every war since the Revolutionary War. I have both great and awful memories of my time in, and I know I'm one of the lucky ones because I was able to utilize my benefits to get a great job. But it takes a LOT to get there. dealing with ptsd, anxiety, panic attacks, deaths of friends and servicemembers, you just never really get over it fully. You just learn how to fake it the best way you can while dealing with it.

They fight for veterans and first responders with their music and other projects. They use veterans in their videos, on tours, etc. Please consider reacting to the collaboration between Five Finger Death Punch, Kenny Wayne Shepherd(who wrote the song and original band), Brantley Gilbert and Brian May.

It always hits hard. This and Machine Gun by Badflower tear me from the bone. That song is a conversation I had with my conscience when I got home from Afghanistan at 25 with a Purple Heart and thinking that was the lamest thing ever, only to come to realize now at 28 that that was ignorant. But it’s hard to get out of your own head. Especially when it’s filled with horrors of war and the feeling that you didn’t do enough. But I did enough, and I am learning that I AM enough. Well wishes heading your way, my friend.

I'm sitting here with tears in my eyes. Because it is so true. There are so many of our fighting men and women who fall through the cracks. Like you said, Black. We the people need to do something to force our government to change to do something to help our vets who are out there suffering from PTSD and other injuries or ailments that keep them from being able to fend for themselves. Dammit America. Let's Take Our Country Back. And, Stand beside each other man, woman black, white it doesn't matter. We need to come together as ONE NATION UNDER GOD.

I was never a metal fan until my son introduced me to Five Finger Death Punch. As a Veteran, I appreciate their love and acknowledgement of Veterans and their service. I promise you there isn't a single one of us who doesn't question the Government and its handling of Veterans vs illegal invaders. It takes Years of battling with Burocrats for a Veteran to even get into the VA system, and even longer to get approved for those Disablities acquired during our service. But foreigners can come here illegally and get Medical care, Housing, Education, money, all without doing a thing to earn it, save for a pledge to vote Democrat if given a chance to illegally vote. Its disgusting how our Government renigs on its promises daily. When my son became old enough to serve, I discouraged him in every way, because I didn't trust Obama and his Department of Denfensless. I certainly don't trust Biden. No way I'd want my son to go through the things I have, only to be discarded afterwards. Anyway, sorry, getting too political now. FFDP has a few other great Veteran type songs you should check out.

B.P. I understand your perspective on the homeless vet issue. In 92, I was working as a security guard in different locations in the San Diego area. Worked with several VN Veterans. Being a kid from rual areas of TN. Nothing made me sadder or angrier than how our government treats our veterans. I even knew a guy a few years older than me who had served in the first Desert Storm. Slowly but steadily lose control of his bodily functions due to the stuff he was exposed to over there. I almost joined the Marines in 88. However, I was medically disqualified due to injuries to my back and knees from sports. I've seen a lot of things I wish I hadn't. Still doesn't hold a candle to what veterans have witnessed, especially those who were in this Nation's conflicts.

My Grandpa was army. My mom was born in Germany while he was stationed over there. Two of my uncles are retired veterans. One uncle is retired USAF with 30 years, He was in Desert Storm. My other uncle is retired Navy. I tried to enlist but i got DQ'd due to medical reasons. I now work with the Air Force/Space Force as a contractor so at least I can serve my country another way by supporting our troops.
