[Judyp77]

@ryanbrooke777 ...the one person that disliked this video is a no good, gol dern commie! Can I get an amen?

[KingWillAlex96]

@Judyp77 Amen.

[jkaiii3118]

@Judyp77 Amen, brother!

[Mandolin1944]

@Judyp77 Amen Judy!!! The person who disliked it was probably someone in the White House. At least today the troops get a decent reception home -- it wasn't that way for us in 1972........

[Judyp77]

@Mandolin1944 ....I know it wasn't. I was in the midst of raising 4 dhildren and didn't understand all that went on. But, when it became clear I was so enraged! These precious soldiers, willing to DIE for their country, coming home and being spit on?!?! God bless you Mandolin, and thank you, thank you, thank you for serving our beloved country. Millions DO realize what you soldiers went thru and love and respect you for it. Never forget that!

[fuzzypige222]

in the midst of all that shit... there are these guys kicking asssssss...no studio, no sound system, just a couple of studs showing us all why they are studs !!!!

GREAT PICKING!!

I like that 'tuning' lick you did. Don't think I ever heard that one on FMB.

God bless you guys! Come home safe, if you haven't already!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AND SACRIFICE, you and your families!

[whorewrangler]

@Tracy3006 Earl Scruggs was the inventor of that style of detuning, tuning while playing. He also was the first to make a tuning knob that allowed you to do that quickly. And not to add another also, but he also invented that style picking. Either way, this song is great and yall do an amazing job of it.

[burchetttj]

Man, where were you boys when I needed a bluegrass fix in the desert? I had to settle for Ralph Stanley on an iPod

[nathanlippert]
