I'm a Vietnam veteran, was a holihopter gunner. Left a girlfriend back home in California. When I came back she had already married and forgot about me. Broke my Heart 💔😭😢. Now I been happily married to someone who truely loves me and have 3 beautiful girls.

After all these years this song still sends chills down my spine and brings a tear to my eyes.

More people need to listen to this song and give our soldiers the respect they deserve. God bless them all!.

This specific song was done Extremely Well. It's been my favorite song I've ever heard. The gentleman who wrote & sung it , deserves a lot more than what he probably got !!

I'm a former German soldier and I just love this song. By the way, my last name is Sadler Warm greetings from Germany

This is one great military song and to all the service men and women out there thank you

Well done to comrades Green Barets! Greetings from this Sergeant Chief of Cavalry of the Portuguese Army 🎈🎼💙💛

Keep it rolling, late October 2020!! Anyone still here?

Can’t listen to him enough! God bless the men and women in the services!

Ever since I was a young girl, I would tear up hearing this song. Just can’t help myself. One of the classics that so many still appreciate today....

My son's unit just deployed to Kuwait. I pray each night that he and all the men and women come home safely to their loved ones. Go 1%!

My father had this album when I was young . I always like the songs by Barry Sadler who has a great voice . Takes me back many years .

RIP SP5 James Gabriel Jr. (22 March 1938 - 8 April 1962) RIP SSG Barry Sadler (1 November 1940 - 5 November 1989)

My Father served 27 months in Vietnam, with 5th Special Forces Group. My Father died in May, 1978. I miss him every day.

Reached #1 on the US Billboard chart in ' 66 . My dad served in Vietnam and you better believe he owned a copy of this album

RIP, MSGT. ROY BENAVIDEZ of Cuero, Tx. The textbook example of what a Green Beret is supposed to be.

Thank you to all who have served to protect our great country. I remember playing this every morning when I was getting ready for school. My brother was a Marine in Viet Nam. We never knew where or how he was. I remember every night watching the news with Mama and Daddy to see who was bombing whom. Thankfully, he came home alive. Never the same...but alive.

Damn I love this song , it takes me back to the 60"s when I was in the Air Force .....

And my uncle Phillip volunteered for the front lines. To my father Sgt Francis Brown, Uncle Phillip, Sgt Floyd Addison. RIP Love you and am so very proud of you all. ♥️♥️♥️

I Deployed to war several times, my wife was there every time I came back.. she is a strong woman. I got lucky

Being a military brat, it makes me proud to hear about the men who fought and died for our nation. God bless all of them and their families.

Reminiscing about my dad. He was a professional peacekeeper all his life, an American hero from World War II, and served in Korea, he was shot down in Vietnam and the Green Berets went in an got him out of the jungle, before the Khmer Rouge did. He used to sit in his chair and just listen to this song over and over again, probably thinking about how lucky he really was. We were really lucky to have him as a father.

My uncle Gerald "Jerry" Schroepfer was one of the original special forces in 1954. I only saw him a few times (different states) but I am so proud of him.

I have just found this video . This song brings tears to my eyes i have heard it before & every time tears are in my eyes . I would really like to thank you all for your service without you all & men & women from my own country we wouldn't be living in a free country . GOD BLESS YOU ALL from across the pond

My dad served in would war 2. Passed away 2011. He love this song.🥰

This song is Strong to the core Respect to all the Green Berets from UK 🇬🇧

i am english i spent 18 months in salina kansas in 1965 but this song is still with me now i'm back in uk but its still revelent today for your boys and ours

A humble SALUTE to all who paid the ultimate price. When this tiny experiment in personal Liberty and Freedom, the USA called, you responded. I miss you father, TSgt Joseph Lopez.

My brother was a Vietnam vet too. God bless all of you! Thank you for your service!

I am now 60. Listened to this song as a young girl. Still love it and makes me cry. My uncle Phillip Brown went into the Army. My dad went into the Army Air course. My Unce was killed at 21. He stayed behind to wait for his best friend who was leaving the next day. My father was angry w him for that. But I said to my dad if Uncle Floys was leaving the next day you would have waited too. He never answered me. My son is now the 4th generation of military men in our family. I have 6 grandsons and 5 granddaughters. I'm sure one of them w go into the military. To all our men and women who served and died. We are a grateful nation and we honor and salute you. My

In 1967, My father was assigned to Ft. Bragg, NC for training prior to deployment to Vietnam. The movie "the Green Beret" had just come come out with John Wayne starring. This song was in the base Movie theater when I saw it . I was 8. And still remember the movie. I have video's of my brother sister and I, playing in a field with C-130 Hercules aircraft doing assault touch and go's in the background. Kind of surreal. Having been at Ft Bragg during the thick of the Vietnam war I have the greatest respect for our troops, particularly those who wear the beret, or trident, who put themselves in harms way for our great democracy. Thank-you.

Powerful song that puts pride in my heart and tears in my eyes.

I first heard this song while in 9th grade, by 12th Grade, it was 1967, and the war was nearing it height. I enlisted in the Marine just before graduation, and left for boot camp just after graduation. Six months later, I arrived in ‘Nam. 45 Days later the Tet, 1968 Offensive began. A rough introduction in country.

I play this song at least every week, it touches my heart each time, the character of this face while singing brings tears to my eyes, how blessed we are as a generation to show respect to our fallen R.I.P beautiful soul.

I can hardly see through my tears. It is tears of gratitude for every soldier. Nelson Mandella spoke true when he said that it is not that we lived, but the effect we have on others' lives. You protect our lives, our country. No greater gift. Thank you and God Bless you.

Every time I hear this sing I think of my dad. RIP pops I know you're with god..

I can not play this album without crying for all our troops.

I had this LP while in my teens. He sang pretty good.

It puts my great niece to sleep. She loves him.

I was a senior in high school when this came out. It made me cry then and makes me cry now.

My Dad had a Brown Beret, in the 70s in RHODESIA, Green and Brown, Men of the best.

I remember when he sang this. Brought tears to my eyes every time I heard it.

this ballad always jerks a tear from my eye.

Much respect from an old Marine

This song is a dedication to all of the men who lead the way for me; for all of the Vietnam War veterans who guided me to a better life, I thank you.

My respect to all of the people that serve in all branches of the military

What a fantastic song &singer I love the words ,it made me feel tearful,thank you to all you brave people who fought in the wars to keep us safe . You will never be forgotten

I swear that this song made me cry as a immigrant because it reminds me of all those who gave their lives for my freedom not just the Green Berets in this beautiful tribute. I find it hard to comprehend how so many good men sacrificed so much just so I could be free. I hope its never to late to say to you may God Bless you and thank you so very much.

In 1966, I first heard this song when I was a young boy about 7 years old in Holland. My pap (RIP) would play the 45" vinyl record of this song. My pap served in "The Royal Netherlands Army (Dutch: Koninklijke Landmacht KLM)" He would deploy for many weeks, longest was two years in New Guinea. I miss you Pappa..

This song is precious ❤️ His song inspired me in St.Louis Missouri.1969 to join the Army and I decided to go 101Airborne Ranger Tiger Force and to be trained to be the best .Ssgt Barry Sadler is the one who started the best way for me ❤️ and all the best to his family

Such a gorgeous old song

Wonderful song!

173 Hurd riparadise pop. Miss you so much.❤️ Sadler was my dad's Sgt. This hits so close to home for me

Vietnam vet, 1st Infantry Division, M-60 machine gun, 3/9/66 to 3/9/67, wounded in action and have heard this song many, many times while in the Army and since then........it still puts a lump in my throat today!

And to my husband who served 22 and a half years in the Air Force. Master Sgt Maurice R. Cates. Great job honey and I'm very proud of you too. ♥️♥️♥️

Brings back a lot of memories 😢😥

OUTSTANDING ! God Bless America !!!

My 2 uncles were in the Army and my brother in-law in the Air Force went to Viet Nam. These men were true heroes.

My father just died, he was Royal Navy in Korea, behind Chinese lines pulling out aircrew that went down feet dry. There are men who are just different from the rest of us.

I own this album by Barry Sadler, I bought it in the 60s and still play it today, I have friends that fought in Viet Nam and I have the highest respect for these men.

We Live For Life...We die for Freedom.. 💪💪

I’m old now but my dad was SAS and never came home so still today I wait for his return and I know I will finally meet him in the land of the never forgotten

From someone who came after THANK YOU to those who served before. And, THANK YOU to those who have and will serve after. We are all brothers and sisters. Most will not understand our bonds but I thank you all for it.

I'm very proud of soldiers at all times.thankyou'll ever ever much.

I'm Australian and I too love this song and brings a tear to my eye

I was given to hear this song in my English class and I have to say that it's AMAZING !!!!

We should never forget the men who lived and died so we might be free. Beautiful song makes me cry to hear the courageous men who gave their lives for us. We must never forget.

A truly patriotic song. God bless America

Just buried my father today in the Veteran's Cemetery on Fort Bragg. I was so proud of my father having been a Green Beret and Ranger. 3 combat tours in Vietnam, 2 Purple Hearts, 2 Bronze Stars. He helped start the MacV Recondo School. He was my hero. He used to sing this song often.

I'm British and I love this song and I can't even try and sing it in my accent.

Introduced this song to my son... to teach honour. integrity. and everything else. we call it the Jump and Die song.

I was in the military during the Vietnam conflict but they sent me to Germany there's a best song that was ever made I listen to it every day

Once you hear this your hooked I listen to it every night I just love it and it is certainly food for thought as we remember the forces here in the U.K. and American god help them all 😢😢😢😢

I have this LP, it was my Dad's. I remember this man. He was highly talked about, it a positive way.

To all that gave some, and to some that gave all, a grateful nation says thank you, and true Americans know and appreciate your sacrifice.

Devotion... ALWAYS commendable and NOBLE ❣️ This song says it all...✨✨✨

God bless this man

You accomplished what circumstances did not allow me to achieve. A salute to all men and women in uniform!

I'm brasilian but if I were american I would be very pride of all american's soldiers

GOD BLESS THESE SOLDIERS WE OWE THEM SO MUCH

I'm Canadian and remember singing this song when I was in primary school, always thought it was a great song (wasn't it also the theme song for the John Wayne Green Beret movie?) and 4 decades later I still remember a lot of the words.

Special Forces training and on an A Team was the hardest thing I've ever done, and it opened many doors for me, including 10 years of law enforcement, and 30 years flying big jets for the airlines. I loved my team, 10th SFGA Ft Devens MA. D.O.L.

I owned this album ... a birthday present. Still chokes me up.

One of my favorite songs...Our youngest son who is 11, loves this song too, he said it's hi song!!🇺🇸

Such a great & sad song! Thank you to all who served & currently serve, you are the bravest! This song, as well as the National Anthem always bring tears to my eyes!!

i served in submarines through the cold war we had different words to this song and it started of with golden dolphins on our chest and so on. is there old mates out there who remember this song

This song is for my hero Alfie Mayhew who was killed in the Rhodesia bush war in 1975.Miss you brother.

This reminds me when.i was left at home with my Viet nam hero fighting for my freedom. Miss him so much his death broke his daughters heart. We loved him so I could play this song with my phone upon my.pillow and fall asleep feeling sad and happy.because this song brings back a beautiful memory of some.one I love dearly wait in for his return.

I remember this song when it came out I was a kid loved it saw him sing it on Ed Sullivan show I am very patriotic great song lots of meaning

thank you everyone in the military past and present thank you for your brave service and god bless you all

We should never forget how much the armed forces do for each country. They are genuine heroes.

This Song should be dedicated....to ALL special forces,no matter where they served....we are all Brothers...

10/21/19....I played this song 24/7/365 both @ Ft Belleview, VA as a young GA girl/Officer's wife + back in GA when my hubby was sent to Nam. ALSO saw John Wayne's HREEN BERETS 🎥 movie there---the only female in a theater full of handsome young Army guys who were thrilled b/c I had baked brownies & chicolate chip 🍪 cookies to give to ALL THESE BRAVE SOLDIERS to enjoy during the movie! WHAT WONDERFUL MEMORIES + GOOSEBUMPS I get when I hear this song! GOD BLESS OUR MILITARY! GOD BLESS OUR POTUS! GOD BLESS AMERICA + OUR RIGHTS + LIBERTY + FREEDOM! GOD BLESS MILITARY FAMILIES + FRIENDS! GOD BLESS OUR VETS + PATRIOTS + OUR AMENDMENTS THAT THE LYING LIBERAL FAKE MEDIA FEMINAZI HOLLYWEIRD SJWs + ALPHABET GROUPS + DEMs are trying to steal from ALL AMERICANS! GOD BLESS AMERICA + OUR FLAG + OUR HERITAGE + OUR CULTURE!

Remembering those who now serve, have served, and those who paid the ultimate price while serving in our country's armed forces -- on this 4th OF JULY.

SSgt Barry Sadler "The Ballad Of The Green Berets" #1, 1966.

The men and women in the service of our country should be be given the up most respect. After all, they our children!!!!

This is another sad song. Love it though, I guess I just have a sensitive heart. Made me cry every time I head it. I think it was in the middle 60's when I first heard it, I guess I was about 10 or 11.
