*To any Veterans watching:* Thank you. Thank you for putting your life on the line in order to protect our country. I, along many, many, many, *many*, others REALLY appreciate it. God Bless, you have served us well. Wishing you an amazing New Year! :)

Why do Americans think they're the only ones who faught in WWIi to get the win. Do some fact checking, there were many other countries instrumental in alot of the battles to get wins. Oh just a side note the US killed just as many innocents if not more by Napalm bombing Japan as the Germans did carpet bombing England. Oh and you likely retort Japan bomb Pearl Harbor first, true but they bombed a MILITARY target, not civilians.

ALL....A L L Vets deserve this kind of treatment. In my not so humble opinion war time Vets should never want for anything. I'm not saying they should be driving BMW's but they should never be homeless, without transportation, without good medical and psychological care!

@stCorinthians- 7 жыл бұрын

i 100% agree. They should also never have to pay taxes. All the tax they would ever pay should be considered paid in full for risking their own blood. Because in the blood there is life and life is something that should be put above all things.

@nonhominid 7 жыл бұрын

Especially since they get paid diddly and a sport athelete who cannot even put there hand over their heart or get one one knee at the national anthem gets paid 30 mil for not even risking his life like these soldiers do. Brad, I love what you did and it is nice to know that there are patriots still out there.

I hope whoever reads this remembers that these brave men & women don't go around asking or looking for respect (they'll defend your rights either way) but it's OUR responsibility as citizens to give & show them that RESPECT no matter what!!

I've heard people put down the military. I have been in the military, now in Civil Service I work with them on a daily basis. Most people have no clue what sacrifices our military members make in terms of personal freedoms and raising families that they have to make to keep us safe. Padding some corporate executives bottom line is not what we sign on for. We sign on to protect the freedoms our citizens have enjoyed. I'm glad someone chose to show their appreciation.

Donna Riggs..... This is truly inspiring and anyone who didn't get at least a lump has no heart, but your wish will never come true, I was a British soldier and served on active duty some year ago, I did what I was trained to do and what was my duty , I achieved the goals set so that fellow soldiers would be safe, I took many lives in the name of freedom and democracy. It was not freedom or democracy I fought for, what my friends were killed for, it was money and power instigated by greed, man is naturally self destructive and as men we will never be equals.
