Patriot Guard - A Pittance of Time

[whygod1105]

This amazing song isn't for your Propaganda yank?

Why are you using it as so.

[SashaoftheHiddenleaf]

I've listened to this song every year on Nov 11 since I was in grade 4, I'm now in grade 11. I use to listen to it to pay my repects to my grandpa who served in WWII and for the other Canadians since this is a Canadian song. But now it's for another reason. I want to support my neighbours the USA. I have some good friends joining the US military and the Canadian one. My heart goes out to both sides. I love both dearly. I pray for you all! May you all come back safe <3

[GlassGirl17]

You can ALWAYS support the troops, even if you don't support the mission.

[69Sailors]

I think this song should be required listening on Nov 11 every year - be it in Canada or the US. We (US) and our Canadian neighbors have experienced joys and suffering together for many years. We honor our servicemembers.

[YouReadMyMind]

Touching tribute. No disrespect intended to my American comrades-in-arms that are victims of the current and past Yank administration's foreign policy.

But as a Canadian Veteran and Peacekeeper, I find this exploitation of Terry's song as a propaganda piece to be extremely distasteful.

The point of his song was to raise awareness of Remembrance Day amongst Canadians that take our sacrifices and 11 Nov for granted - not to serve as a political piece for Yankee propagandists.

[sabregunner]

@YouReadMyMind I understand that it was written for Canadian Fallen Heroes and I too thank your fallen on Veterans Day (for the U.S.) but please understand that the Patriot Riders are NOT political. They were formed to Protect our Fallen Heroes from some disrespectful people who were trying to politicize Soldiers deaths and protest at thier funeral. The Patriot Riders "Stand for those who Stood for Us." They form a "Human Shield" for the families so they do not have to endure insults w/ pain.

[marcocanb]

To expand on this poing Terry wrote this song after wittnesing much the same scene in a Shopers Drug Mart in Dartmoth, Nova Scotia on November 11th. A day of rememberance that americans skiped in favor of memorial day, which means nothing other than the start of summer for most.

[CanadaguyRudey]

This has become a song to be played at yearly Remembrance Day events in schools in Canada.

I have seen kids in tears listening to this and watching the Canadian video.

[flonner687]

hi my name is harmonie. i wont to say we are so lucky to have these men fighting for us without them we couldent go outside without being shot. my great great grandfather was in the war he is still alive he was blinded alot of the men he working with died but now i know we are so lucky to have them let us remember them in peace may they rest

[baddog3537]

Apwheelmaster176, thanks for the clarification. I was sure that is what you meant. Growing up and being called a "jap" I guess still effects me. I am an American period. My loyalty and life is for the USA!!! Correction, it was my two great uncles who died in France during WWII. God vless the USA!

[Airborne1995]

as a Canadian i Support the Canadian Forces. They been in every war except Iraq and Vietnam.if you need a battle won get canada to do it becasue we did during the First World War when Canada took a ridge called Vimy in 4 days.Battle Of Vimy Ridge became a Canadian nationalistic symbol of achievement and sacrifice.

[SharpSho0ter99]

@Airborne1995 approximately 40,000 canadians hopped the border and joined the US military for the Vietnam War.

[YouReadMyMind]

@SharpSho0ter99 lol and a large number of Americans hopped the border and Joined the Canadian Military during WWI and WWII before the US entered

[1diesel1]

Have we reached the point that the only sanity in the world is being maintained by Canada, Britan, the US and Australia.........or have I gone senile? Great song Mr. Kelly

[thewildmonkeyninjas]

@MrJihad yea dude i agree with yea people think that canadians arent good but we fight a really good fight and we will always fight good and this song is for everyone who died in the war even the germans sometimes people forget this but its true and im no fan of what germany did but they still deserv a day for there veterans and if someone say else let me know because they are wrong and i dont like because its just wrong

[wheelmaster176]

@thewildmonkeyninjas We celebrate veterans day because they fought and died for an idea,for freedom. The Germans did not,nor did the Japs. America,Canada,Briton and some other allied forces fought for us to be free. Screw the enemy.

[thewildmonkeyninjas]

@wheelmaster176 true i doint disagree but still u know what oh well ur right

[baddog3537]

@wheelmaster176 The 442 and 100th Infatry was filled with who you call "Japs". I lost uncles during WW II.  They fought for the Red, White, and Blue. I am sure you were not trying to be offensive, but I needed to respond to your comment. I would not be showing respect to my uncles if I didn't.

[wheelmaster176]

@baddog3537 I simply meant that I don,t particularly feel bad for the enemys of America. I would not refer to an Aisan american fighting under old glory as anything but an american hero----and thanks to your uncles for their service.

[whygod1105]

Stop the fucking bickering... We're all fighting for the same cause, and some have died for that cause... No matter the uniform.... No matter the flag... Your fighting for freedom, not just of your country but of the world...

Every colour, every race, every religion.... You show the same repect....

[coolboy0989]

im going to survie my county in 1 year time

R.I.P soldiers

[EugeneSchmittIV]

I agree...Opinions are ok....yet have some respect!

[RBW0074]

iMrJihad,

No I don't think Canadians themselves are "pissies". Terry Kelly, the man who wrote and sang this song is Canadian. And you need to see the original video that accompanied it.

As a U.S. citizen I have some disagreement with some Canadian policy and their gun restrictions but that's really none of my business.

[Falwren]

@RBW0074

Many of us Canadians also disagree with our gun restrictions.

[iMrJihad]

Some people think that canadians are pissies because our military sucks, but we fight the good fight and have the same heart as every other man who dies for their flag. O Canada, and god bless America

[Falwren]

@iMrJihad

It's not half bad actually, considering our population size is 1/10th of the USA. It may be small, but we've got F-18's, and soon will have F-35, and of course JTF-2.

[wembley05]

God bless you all from the UK and Australia!

[dalelvn]

it matters not what countrys uniform you put on. We as a nation MUST rember and honor those who have made it safe to walk the streets and sleep soundly in our beds. Nomatter what flag flys on the pole. Thank you Terry. From a proud American Vet.

[Bbare45]

May God Bless all those who have served and those who have paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we should cherish. May God Bless them all, regardless of race, creed, color, country of origin or sex.

I thank all vets of any country for their selfless sacrifices and I praise God that they are here.

Rest In Peace those who have gone on before us.

[tazzdevill]

As a disabled vet, I have received thanks all day today. So to you all, thank-you! Freedom isn't free.....I am home with my family now because others never came home. Or came back scarred and burned. For all those is gave so much and asked so little; for those that will never get to hug their loved ones again, I thank-you. I thank you.

[CaptainInfern0]

Thank You soldier, god bless you and your family!! Hoorah!

[dondonp12004]

God bless our troops, not just the United States Armed Forces, but especially the Canadian Forces and the British Armed Forces!

[forkorc]

Those Code Pink whores can all die and when they are begging for help I hope the marines just spit on them and walk past. Anyone not supporting the troops of any country does not deserve to be a citizen out that country.

[notme411]

As much as I agree with you, I cant. They have the freedom to say what they want because of our Military. It is our Job to assure Our Military that those folks are very few and far between. That 99% of our Country Support and Love them for wearing the Uniform, When they Hurt, We hurt with them. When They give their life for Freedom, That we Grieve with their families and stand tall for them to lean on.

[planeguy141]

I'm almost tempted to start riding a motorcycle so i could join the Patriot Riders.

[1wyotech]

You dont have to ride a motorcycle to join us.....all you MUST have is respect for the fallen hero......

[SkylineToTheSeaAndMe]

God bless Canada too, and all the other allied nation's soldiers who fought so bravely and gave their lives so that future generations could realize their dreams.

[longrifle48]

God Bless America, and may God bless our fallen heroes and those who serve in their place today . . .

AL PGR, DAV

[SHORTREAPER117]

Very cool song thanks to all troops for fighting for freedom riding in memory of Joseph Rabouin Army WWII

[outtacontrol22]

peace

[Brunders08]

That scene with the soldier and the small child, just makes you weep at what our boys are going through to protect from the rebels/taliban in IRAQ and AFGHANISTAN.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK BRITAIN, AMERICA, CANADA and other countries involved.

Brothers in arms, United in Liberty!

[judge15235]

Recently recruited into the "PATRIOT GUARD RIDERS" myself, I want to thank the men and women in the Armed Forces for their sacrifice to America and the World. My heart breaks when one of you falls, Bikerangel3 and I will stand, always. Judge15235

[thors200]

I've heard this song 1000 times and still brings tears to my eyes, the original video is beautiful btw, I'm glad someone finally used it in a USA context, everyone do someting for those overseas, whether its sending a care package or volunterring at the VA or simply saying thank you to a soldier when you meet them, we owe them that and more

God Bless America

[JLCoppett]

As a disabled veteran, I would like to thank you for posting this. I am proud of Terry Kelly for his performance of this song, and I thank you for remembering. GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!!!!

[BroadCastTuber]

thank you.

[mnnole]

Again Thank you..

[docwhispr]

awesome job

[LaReinaDelBarrio]

I totally support our troops and the Patriot Guard Riders. I wish I could ride in with you guys in my full battle warpaint and sequins, but it would be a bit distracting! I've written a song called THE BALLAD OF HATEFUL SHIRLEY which is about, you guessed it, the witch of Westboro. I bet Shirley hates the video and the song. Its about a little miracle that takes place one day when Shirley and Fred are picketing a funeral.

You should give credit to Terry Kelly, who is the writer and singer of "A Pittance of Time", who lives in Nova Scotia

[pgrcharlie]

Great video ........... but you should give credit on the opening to the singer of "A Pittance of Time" who is Terry Kelly from Nova Scotia.

[LaurieSANY]

Thank you!

[wb251]

I understand all are entitled to their own opinion but understand i will not allow rude disrespecful comments to remain for this video
