thank you much for a great great song. My husband retired after 26 yrs in the USAF, My brother served in USN for 22 yrs, & cousins who served in both Marines & Army..
A mere Thank you is not enough for what our troops & their famillies sacrifice every da. May God Bless them all.
Thank you for your loving comment on my song. Feel free to share this video with friends, and enjoy the coming Independence Day weekend. Over 200 years ago, brave men (like your husband and brother and cousins) stood up to ensure the freedoms we enjoy in America today.
if it wasn't for these men and women we wouldn't have the freedom or be able to walk out of our homes and be safe not worrying that there's a man on the roof so thank you for serving our country and for giving the people their freedom
@momb1034 Thank you so much for watching and commenting! I worked for the U.S. Army several decades ago -- it was my honor to spend time with our troops and to sing for them.
Outstanding video Trish, the fact that you know the difference between a Soldier, a Marine and a Sailor is knowing a lot more than most. Great song, thank you for the support.
I spent a year working on an Army base in South Korea. Got to know a bit about the military back then. I truly love, honor and support these dedicated troops and our veterans. Thanks for the comment.
That's interesting, what was your occupation in Korea?
I haven't been in Korea myself, but I have been in Okinawa, Japan. My Duty station is back stateside, however. Are you planning on making more songs? Thank You for the support.
I was employed by U.S. Army Special Services as a recreation specialist -- planned and carried out activities for the troops. Also sang! I was at 4th U.S. Army Missile Command, Camp Page.
Of course. I'm proud to have the song playing in support of our troops anywhere on the Web. Easiest way to get the song is to download the single at CDBaby(dot)com. You can look me up there by name. Or CALL me, and I'll arrange to email an MP3 to you. You'll find my phone number on the "Contact" page at my Website.
Trish, from a veteran and father of a recently wounded warrior, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your sweet and powerful gift of love in this work.

So this is somthing that really hits the heart because i now know all the reasons i am thanking them. Thanks SO much have a great day.
