Thank you for your service and sacrifice

braclettes? did you enlist and kill them back? sorry didn't read all the way

I feel ya brother. I retired from the Marine Corps in 2015 and had served in Fallujah Iraq in 2004 during Operation Phantom fury/Al-Fajr and then in Ramadi Iraq in 2006 during the battle for Ramadi. I then went on to serve in the Helmand Province in Afghanistan in 2008 Operating out of Camp Leatherneck, then again in the Helmand Province in Afghanistan in 2010 during Operation Moshtarak and finally 2013 again in the Helmand Province in Afghanistan with 3/5 Marines. I had been wounded in 2006 in Ramadi Iraq i hadn't been badly wounded i had been shot thru my left wrist. It was in 2013 with Darkhorse 3/5 that i was badly wounded when a ANA soldier tripped an IED and a 3 hour firefight ensued. I was knocked unconscious and peppered with shrapnel from the IED blast. It was sometime after the blast i was shot in my lower right leg just above my ankle that disintegrated about 4 inches of my tibia. Another Marine actually one of my bestfriends ran to me and started to drag me back. He ended up being hit and i was shot again this time under my left arm where my body armor didn't cover. The round went thru my left lung and exited out my back, i don't remember anything after that i was told i had passed out. When i came to i was in Ramstein Germany getting ready to be sent to Walter Reed. I was at Walter Reed when i was told that my bestfriend who was dragging me to safety had actually been killed, i was told that he died in the helicopter while we were being medavaced. That really fucked me up i felt and still to this day feel that i was responsible for his death. I know that's not true but it's hard not to feel responsible.

Lee Jones sorry to hear thanks for posting brother

Lee Jones RESPECT. I lost a comrade in Afgh in 2008 (ied/firefight)

May he rest in the quiet peace that he earned...

Thank you for your service. And RIP cpl.brice c. Belk. My brother is about to go into the Marines. I’ll tell him about him to remember his name as he goes in.

Thanks to all the brave service men and women...NEVER FORGOTTEN.....

StandSure we lose brothers and sisters everyday because of reasons like that

That's the entire point of the video. How could anyone not see it.

@Paul Monroe incorrect. FFDPs version is 100x better. Your opinion is wrong

@Paul Monroe disrespect

I noticed, I was a Medic, I always blamed myself even even when I I couldn't do a goddamn thing

In 2011, I think it was 2011, I was in Tampa for Mayhem Fest as a guest of the local rock station. I was in Tampa after an injury that would eventually end with me being medically discharged. I got to go back stage and meet these guys. I was standing just offstage when they opened with Bad Company.

The reason why they do that is because three of the original 5 are vets, that's also the reason why they put awareness out for vets and stuff like that is because they've experienced this kind of stuff

Thank you for your service Anthony!

This video sucks.

@@rose6965 might mean something more to you if you ever left your mom's basement and did something for someone else.

@@reddeath5delta i highly doubt she woukd ever do anything for anyone with that hateful comment on a video that tells a story of what our men and women of the armed forces have to deal with

@@rose6965 so does yo momma

@@rose6965 Jesus Christ or whatever you may believe in. Daaang you have 0 dignity "rOsIe"! I haven't been in the military myself. Ain't big part of my Country you know. But I can totally relate to this video since I've lost my girlfriend in a violent accident. It sticks with you. No matter how hard you try to toughen yourself up, anyways. So I suggest you take your little eenie wheenie opinion, that nobody gives a shit about and get the fuck out of here, before I start telling my opinions about you as a human being. You might not care but sure fire thing, I won't hold back on that one.

Yes it is

I was going to mention this one also

I never served but I do respect and love every person that has ever served this great we live in. Hearts and prayers to any one who has served or if you know someone who has served. I love you all.❤

This song is about the route 91 shooting and focuses on one of the military vets/Vegas cops that was killed. His kids are the 2 playing basketball in the video.

I love a lot of Five Finger Death Punch's songs!

Josh Coleman and far from home

Makes me cry every single time.

@@damienmuro718 Oh yes!!!

That one is too much 💔💔😧

And gone away

Mamas have hard in these situations! God bless you!

Your son is a hero to this country! You should be proud! I hope he made it home safely to you!

tatoogap you’re a hero. Thank you for risking your life. And it’s an honor to even be commenting to you. Thank you for your service and never give up! I don’t know you but I want to say I love you for what you have gone through.

Thank you Tony

I'm Active Duty USMC. We're not deploying much to combat zones at the moment but I'm a POG anyways haha. From one serviceman to another, thank you for everything you've done for your country, and God bless.

Ty for your service and to all those on here who have served or are serving! Airborne! Air Assault!!

God bless you baby. I hope you transition home well. I am sorry for your losses and injuries that curtailed your chosen career. much love

From one brother to another. Thank you for serving. I appreciate you man!!

Thank you for everything you gained and lost, brother.

you should watch the original version by The Offspring. Back in 97

Love you and THANKS WE OWE YOU everything

My son is the corps

I know I'm a few months late on this but Five finger death punch is an amazing band. One of my favorites. I'm glad they put meaning behind their lyrics and how they are so pro military and all. Its great, definitely an underrated band IMO and they don't get the credit they deserve.

@@datboishrek6662 It's a great Music Video, but this song "Gone Away" is a cover. The Offspring originally wrote and performed it, and wasn't a sad song at all.

@@hobbitpsi Wasn't A Sad Song At All?...Are you serious???.....Maybe you need to go back and read the damn lyrics to the song!!...The song has ALWAYS been about losing someone you love!!

@@shaneknowles7632 That's the beauty of music. It doesn't matter what the lyrics meant to the writer, it's the interpretation of the other person listening to it. What might have been sad for you, may not be sad for others. Personally to me it was uplifting.

@@hobbitpsi Yes, With music everybody can take a song and interpret it however they choose...However, That still does not take away from the writer's original storyline/meaning.....To you, The song may have been uplifting and positive...But, To say that the song as a whole was "not sad at all" is not true.....Even with your own opinion, It is blatantly wrong to try to dismiss the writer's original intentions and interpretation.....If you had said that YOU BELIEVE or YOU THINK that the song wasn't sad, That's one thing...But, You didn't do that...You made a blanket statement to explain the song as a whole, Thereby PROJECTING your own personal opinion over the original writers.

Sorry for your lost ma'am and thank you for your service

As a vet, I am truly sorry for your loss. I l k ow all too well the depression and PTSD battle. God bless you and yours.

For one female vet to another, thank you for your service and both me and my husband served. We both battle with ptsd and we do everything that we can for one another and all we can do is fight everyday for the next day. I lost my best friend to suicide and sometimes even when we do all we can we can't change that mind set and it hurts. You did everything you could and you still loved him through it all and that is what matters the most, I am sorry for the loss of your husband.

You can live thru hell brother.

I've lost friends too, just remember you're not alone.

Thank you for everything

Thank you for all you've done and sacrificed to keep us safe.

Thank him from the bottom of all our hearts ❤️

Hoo-ah! Ma'am...

his-bean Thank you for sticking with him through it all, that’s the motivation we need.

his-bean A good spouse is super important. Keeps you sane during the crazy times.

@@robbielawson3967 Now if I could just find something to keep me sane. LOL

Chris5107 First of all your talking about the political side of things. There are times where we should not have been in war but there are times that war was necessary. You could be upset about the political side of things but how dare you disrespect troops you fucking loser. I’d love to see you say that INFRONT of a veteran. How disrespectful.

Chris5107 they saved other countries in the process

Watch the video for "Wrong Side of Heaven" They list out dozens of organizations that work to help veterans. It may not seem like much, but the more money they receive, the more veterans they can help.

@Chris5107 you are a disrespectful POS let me guess you're one of those that kneel during the anthem to. Shut up. How Dare you disrespect our vets . They are the reason you have your stupid opinions they are the reason you are still alive they are the reason you have the right to your opinion they are the reason this country is still standing.

@Chris5107 Have you ever put yourself on the line for anything of significance? Have you ever truly sacrificed for something much larger than yourself? I could demean myself and seriously go to gutters in reaction to your seriously ignorant opinion. Instead, I will reaffirm my oath that protects your right to express yourself as an ill informed and likely immature person. You choose to look at these issues through your own self centered and myopic worldview.

Thanks for your service and I am sorry for what had happened. God Bless

patrick Koscher thank you for your service

You’re welcome! ⚓️🇺🇸😀 US Navy Veteran 1994-2004 🦑

I am heartbroken for you. There were 100 times I thought the same thing when I got back (I’m a vet too). There just isn’t enough for everyone and sometimes it’s too much. I am sorry and I pray he found his peace.

God bless your family.

Not necessarily. It can still be a personal thing based on who’s listening.

@@nikkimandlis8295 I think thats what he means. Personal impact for him. I was the perfect age for the original means way more to me. But thats because of that time in my life. I love this version to. But Dexters screams in the original means more to me. just my 2 centz

I like both versions

@@larrycollinslarrdogg8277 Oh, don't get me wrong. I like both versions. I just get a different feel from each.

Like this one feels more self blame, where as The Offsprings is more powerless based of the feeling.

Same

I was shocked at The Offspring it's no where near as good as this one! Person opinion

@@emilymatthews2162 I'm a fan of the emotion Offspring puts into theirs. Considering why it was written there's a good reason it's an emotional song.

@@bassage13 I did say my opinion 🤷‍♀️ I looked into why the song was written and the reasoning hits hard. If I had heard The Offspring version first then I would have a different opinion again. MY OPINION

Im a fan of both and love it honestly. I lost my best friend who was about to become my sister in law to a drunk driver. FFDP was one of her favorite bands and when this song came it. It reminded me of her. I cried for days on end after. It def is a song that can relate to a lot of people for different reasons.

Chris Gardner LOVE that song!!!!!!!!

If you want a song specificly for the veterans... Wrong Side Of Heaven And The Righteous Side Of Hell. Back when they didn't loose Band Identity to their Label.

That depends... Their 1st album was still one of their best, I'd probably say No one Gets Left Behind is close to their pace, too...

I've seen people do military tribute videos for Far From Home, too... Easy to interpret the lyrics from that song to fall in this line, but definitely have to agree that Wrong Side of Heaven hit the nail on its head... Being a Veteran, myself, it's definitely powerful...

@@andreabeeler5448 hell yeah

Actually none of them have ever served in the military, but they do alot for our soldiers.

Oh yes

It's a good song but the video is just them going on tour amd training

Or do compare and contrast between their version or bad company and bad company's version I enjoy both versions.

this is exceptional- but even so the Offspring never get enough recognition, both for this song and others

Mercenary Pen I absolutely love The Offspring. They basically were my middle/early high school. Lol

I love them both...I honestly can't put one over the other.

Chester Benningfield actually inspired them FFDP to do this song when he took his own life. Thats what the song was written for originally.

Stone Rayven no. This song is a COVER of the song written by The Offspring. You’re way off on this. There might have been an inspiration for covering the song to make it their own, but these words, this SONG is original and by The Offspring and was about Dexter Holland’s (the lead singer) girlfriend being killed in a car accident. The song was written in 1997, 8 years before FFDP was even a thing.

Frankly I firmly believe this version sounds better.

Sry You mean, offspring did the original 😅

HHC 2 BCT 3 ID here, I never had to do that and I feel lucky that I didn’t.

The notification detail was horrible I did that plus funeral detail at stewart 1st battalion 3rd bsb

@@adammaynard5683 I used to know a guy at Stewart named Adam Maynard that's crazy

Jason Langfitt especially since that’s not my real name, just took it from two members from the band Tool! Thanks for your service brother, and thanks for doing the toughest job in the military, notification duty.

@@adammaynard5683 1/13 FA & 1/35 FA back when Stewart was 24th ID. Thanks for your service.

It’s not about deserving. Do any of us deserve it? But we can be good to those around us.

Don’t be sad that they’re gone. Be happy that such great people lived. And live a good life for them

Another great song.

Yes there's allot they need to listen too

Thats a deep one about the challenges and problems of war. It tackles alot of problems. A great song
