  • This video increases our awareness of what they have done for us to gain freedom. We are forever grateful to you guys.

  • @MrGrevy , have you ever placed yourself in harms' way or undergone great physical stress and isolation for reasons other than to feed your face, fuel your car or satisfy your sex drive?

    The Nations' veterans have done it and the active duty members are doing it. What are you doing?

  • Thanks to all who have served, past, present and future. Thank you to my father for fighting in WWII. He came home when it was over and was never the same again. I love you, Dad. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think of you.

  • Thank you to all veterans! I was in the Army, and I know what it's like to serve my country. Once again, God bless all who have served and are now serving this great country.

  • Great video and collection of images from conflicts past and present. These men and women signed a blank check made payable to our Country for an amount up to and including their lives. The next time you feel good about living in a free Nation, think of them. If you see a service member in uniform, thank them.

  • Couldn't keep a dry eye.

  • Happy veterans day

    this thursday

  • who theh ell would not like this

  • At 3:46 do you know who that man is???

  • @davidpekofske Have no clue. I was made aware sometime ago that Larry Craig is pictured in here somewhere. This video was made almost 4 years ago at that time I didnt even know who Larry Craig was. As far as the guy at 3:46 I have no idea I used pictures that were in the Public Domain. If you actually know who that is maybe you could reply and let us all know. Thanks

  • @MadScience I'm almost sure that the man in the picture is tom dollahan... he is an army and airforce vet, he is also my grandfather, it was actually good to see him as a younger man...great video on the sacrifice of our soldiers

  • I've viewed quite a few of these tributes....I know most are sincere and heartfelt, but at times a bit fluffy....this one actually moved me to tears. You've captured it well....the timelines, the faces, the families, the sacrifices....and I don't think you could have chosen a more appropriate song. Thank you for your post. ~~~~ An old soldier~~~

  • .All examples would be bad. some would be

    18 dollars an hour, younger, women etc.

    cops would be an example

  • from the people of vietnam ,,have a happy remembrance day, remember well

  • 1.26 is cute

  • Thank you so much! I've considered joining the military but I can't imagine myself being anything near as brave as those who gave us our freedom and liberty.

    God bless.

  • Respect to all us veterans from Finland!

    I have a question: What was chosen as the veteran day to USA?

    Cause in finland the natonal veteran days is held the same date when the Germans were pushed back to Norway and the war was over by the finns. So what day is the US veteran day representing?

  • The End of World War I the signing of the treaty / surrender was signed at the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month. Nov 11th is Veterans day here in the US due to that.

    Hope this helps

  • Ok, thanks :)

  • @laskusiiveke In addition to what MadScience says, I might add that prior to the end of WWII it was known as Armistice Day.  The French still celebrate it as Armistice Day, those countries affiliated with the former British Empire celebrate it as Remembrance Day and we celebrate it as Veterans day.

  • Republicans are blocking a bill that would give health care to all our veterans. Why do republicans hate our veterans so much?

  • I honor all veterans and I thank the ones who died sould be given a memoriel in washington d.c to honor the true heros of this country!

  • Your sacrifices will never be forgotten. We thank you for defending our freedom.

  • Veterans, Thanks for all you do!

    Great Photo collage. Nice tune!

  • Thank you to all the Veterans. I am glad to see that some people take time and stop to thank and think about our Veterans; unlike my high school principal who/we did NOTHING today for Veterans Day.

  • What a priviledge to be an American, and have a freedom that our finest has fought for. Not once did our finest have ever failed. Love our finest, Thank you and God bless.

  • As a veteran of the Air Force and Army National Guard I want to thank all of you for supporting all of the men and women in uniform.

  • Thank you for remembering us. As a Veteran and Active Duty National Guardsmen I thank you.

    I spent 10 years in the US Marine Corps now 3 years in the Ohio National Guard.

    Blessed are the peace keepers, for they shall be called the Sons of God.

    Semper Fi,

    SSGT. VDOG

  • Comment removed

  • Thanx vetarens the world is a better place now

  • As weary as i am, on trusting the military/industrial complex as it gears towards the NWO, i am nevertheless humbled by, and thankful to, the people who risked and gave their lives for OUR sake. Thank you all for having good will, and may God speed you.

  • As one who served, Thank you.

  • Vet Day has become so commercialized that it's just a disgrace. Nice to see sweet videos like this one honoring the vets because that is what the day is all about.

    It's also a time to think about lost fathers and I really advise a listen to the late Henry Iglesias singing "Father You Believed." Always makes me cry.

  • Thank You to all those who have served, are serving and will serve! Thank you protecting us and keeping us safe! A Proud Us Navy Wife! * I love you honey, caint wiat for you to come back home. I miss you so much*

  • Thanks for the Salute and Song!--A USAF Veteran

  • God of peace,

    we pray for those who have served our nations

    and have laid down their lives

    to protect and defend our freedom.

    whose nights are haunted by memories

    too painful for the light of day.

    Amen

  • Still They Ride by Journey

  • Thanks fullgail. Got IT.

  • Wow, what a wonderful and moving video tribute to our Veterans! Thank you for the effort you put into this. Even a 5 star rating doesn't do it justice.

    Fastronald U.S. Army 1971 - 1974

  • God Bless our troops and may we stomp the guts out of any enemy of the United States of America!

    Thankyou,

    David Christopher Civita

  • Incredible! I salute you to all vet's. Thankyou.

  • good job -- except for the pic of the disgraced Larry Craig about midway.

  • I put this video together last year for Veterans Day. At that time I didnt even know who Larry Craig was. Actually I never realized he was in the video until you mentioned it.

  • we should honor all our veterans, but those who have died in battle diserve more thanks.

  • You are correct, and that is why we have Memorial Day. To remember those who gave their lives in the name of our country. But speaking as a Veteran who has lost friends, Thanks for your support and please remember my friends and others like them on Memorial Day.

  • I like you

  • We owe our Veterans so much! I am honored to live in this country and have these brave men and women sworn to protect me and all that I find dear.  "Thank you," just isn't enough.

  • I second that. Thank You isn't enough, and I think the next best thing we can do is to support them, honor them and respect them for what they do and have done. Support them no matter what for doing anything less is dishonoring them. I love all members of the U.S. Armed Forces ... past, present and future! God Bless You All!!!!!

  • Sempi Fi,to all of my Brothers&Sisters. Losing one soldier,or Marine or airman,or navy person in a war,is one to many. Thanks foe a really great video. Roger Alexandre USMC

  • thank you so much we all love you men and women you guys let us have freedom and you save our lives you sacrifice your lives for us and you care about our lives too but the main thing is that we are about you happy Veterans Day

  • Beautiful video. Thank you so very much.

  • This was beautiful. Thank you so much for this tribute. We should never forget the sacrifice that our men and women make to keep us safe.

  • Thank you so much for this!

  • Very Welcome, But the thanks should go to all Veterans and soldiers Like SGT Howard. God Bless RIP

  • Also wanted to say , Glad to see Tillman in there.
