[MrsChristopherDrew1]

1:55 made my heart burst!!

[adon688]

those three ppl who dislikes dis vid u all are heartless peace of shit

[mpsoldier0788]

"and when he gets to heaven, to saint peter he will tell....one more soldier reporting sir, I've served my time in hell." I can barely express the gratitude that I feel towards those who have gone before me into war . I now face my own deployment, yet feel calm...though it may claim my life...I fight for the love of those I hold dear and the freedoms that this country is so richly blest with. Even if my life is taken there, I regret NOTHING

[TrollSimonCowell]

Thank God for dead soldiers. God hates America and Iraq for not following the ways of His word. When will the world wake up? 9/11 was an act of God. The death on both sides of this war as well. They are warnings for all of us to change our ways.

[21bravo818]

@TrollSimonCowell Or its just a sign from god to get rid of people like you.

[D3lSOL2fast]

@TrollSimonCowell It will be a true act of God when someone puts a bullet through your brain.

[TrollSimonCowell]

@D3lSOL2fast That's not very Christ-like.

[D3lSOL2fast]

@TrollSimonCowell Christ is Christ-like enough for the both of us.

[TrollSimonCowell]

@D3lSOL2fast You poor soul. May God have mercy on you and your liberal American ways, when you are confronted at the gates of Heaven.

[D3lSOL2fast]

@TrollSimonCowell LMAO I would neither have to be liberal or American to understand that wishing ill on the men and women who serve to protect, not just their own country, but EVERY innocent everywhere is the most terrible thing anyone could do. The deepest level of hell is reserved for those of your ilk. I don't need mercy from God or anyone else I do what is right and what must be done for everyone I love who cannot. Things like you are not even human and should removed from planet earth.

[pvtANovaksmom]

Beautiful but so sad! We wish we would have gotten just 1 more letter from our HERO! Rest In Peace Adam!

[ladytexas36]

A young man that my son grew up with since they were babies served in the Army. He came home in a casket. Killed by a roadside bomb. It hit me like he was my own son. Could have been. I will always miss and love Jeremy Allmon.

[Daigs65]

Amen and God Bless to all past, present and future men and women of our combined armed services!

[123456789Anarchy]

that is verry sad

r.i.p.

[tommyspike1]

I'm an italian soldier who served alongside u.s. troops,can't think of better men. Your country is truly blessed to have sons and doughters like this. Let the american people that their sacrifice is not forgotten nor we have forgotten what you have done 60years ago..thanks and god bless America.

[cybernako088]

soldier,marine,sailor,airmen..­..........may you finally have peace. And for those that are still fighting.......give them hell.....even if parts of america fall to the bullshit know that Americans will be here to tell you thank you for keeping us safe. I salute you.

[bioshock210001]

nice video but very sad :( in memorie of all americans that have died in combat

[mckinstryt]

God Bless Every Soildier past present and future we will never forget them so tonight say a prayer for them

[fallenangel7889]

I look back on the past and I wish that my brother was still here, he alwasy stcuk up for me and the last time i talked to him we got into a really bad argument and i did not get to say that i was sorry

[jessxoxeyah]

truly amazing (L)

[copycat147]

good jo- holy shit is that tears

[L4dyQuila]

RIP my fallen comrades...you have done your duty now go home and have peace in your hearts and minds that we will continue where you left off!

[g8195]

my cousin was injured in Afghanistan and he said that if it wasn't for everyone in his troop he wouldn't be alive now so he says thank you to everyone who died for there country and who saved lives

[cobraguy22]

well im in the army and i lost a good friend in this war

a proud army veteran

********

[daionara]

There is a special blessing in having family that serves our country. I believe with my whole heart that there is a special place in heaven for all those who have battled honorably and fallen in service. Thank you for this.

[TunesNorth]

Great tribute video, nice presentation and soundtrack.

Thank you for posting.

A Proud US Navy Veteran!

[RSDGproductions]

when i see a memorial grave site for the vets,i want there to be no more of those gravesites,no more wars,no more deaths...

[hiddenpoetintheband]

I agree, the numbers are too high. I hate war, but I refuse to hate those who fought because not everyone who are in the military are there to kill, for some that is the only way to get a colage education. I am very thankful for every person who has served, and for every family member who suported them

[118scooter]

@RSDGproductions Unfortunately, the balance of things won't allow that. There will always be bad in this world, and, in turn, there will always be those that choose to combat it. Let's just count our blessings that we were gifted to have those who were dedicated enough to lay down their lives. Let the memories/memorials remind us of how damn lucky we are.

[deha24]

At 1:19 just tears me up I have a 4 year old son and 6 year old daughter.I serve in the US ARMY,and could not even imagine if my son were in that situation.

[cailinmaxim]

So much i wish i could say to those who have lost loved ones, I'm not an articulate or smart person and im not even American. Seeing the little boy recieving the flag for his fallen parent reminds me of something Thomas Paine said "If there must be trouble let it be in my day, that my child may have peace."

I do hope and pray that my children will never be asked to make the same sacrifices that my generation and all before mine have had to make.

God bless the families of those who gave to much.

[jackiebaron]

If your children are asked to make sacrifices so that George W Bush can glean 800 million dollars and Dick Cheney close to 3 BILLION as a result of a foreign colonial war then I would hope as a parent you would have the wisdom the urge them to politely decline.

[rasberry123]

I agree cailinmaxim .

God Bless all of our men and women.

Viet Vet

[ScotttPotty]

my dad was in the military he never came back i missed him alot and i will never forget about him

[kayemoprincess]

My Boyfriend Is Going In The Army. I Just Want Him Back Safe :/

[dub123boy]

omg this video made me cry...even though i dont have family in the military...i have had an uncle in the military...he didn't die in service but he died 9 years ago and had the service with the guns....i give all my hope and strength to those fighting to return un harmed....i give all my sadness to those who havent made it back....rest in peace and God Bless

[Boxinglad123]

Afghanistan is an unwinnable war! We cannot beat the Taliban on their home soil, when they hide in schools and neighbourhoods with people that we are not allowed to fire at, it is a fucking disaster,, lets see Gordon Brown and Tony Blair take a set of boots, a uniform, a helmet, body armour and a weapon and go out their and fight!

[mrolympiae]

SEMPER FI!!!! this makes me cry bro!!!

[cet1217]

God Bless all soldiers. British, Canadian, American, etc.

We are all fighting for our country. We are all fighting for our freedom. We are all fighting for our families.

God bless all of you.

OORAH

Simper Fi

[100ofhoo]

im from england and was in the first gulf war, when you have been there and done it you never forget it, but you have to think about your family back home and what they are going though! they are fighting as well! im happy my family never got my final letter and they got me back! i just wish they all get back as i did! just remember us brits are in the same boat! so to them all, i salut you all! and we used to love going to the american px jubayl port!

[r0ckerchick666]

Never disrespect a soldier, or veteran. I grew up with Military blood in my family. One thing that my mother always told me was to always look up to the ones who gave you the freedom to do the things we can do and the things we can say. I thank all soldiers for all the things they do. God bless you all, return home safely, and to the ones already home and retired Thank You so much.

[Roselleg]

I am a veteran. I spent time in Germany during the Regan years, I went to war in 90-91 as my duty dictated. Attention to this, soldiers hate war even as they fight in one. If you think you are better, then get off your civillian butt and join. For those of you who would call the US military killers, yes we are, but what will you call those who put us in that position. The US military kills the enemy then turns around and tries to save those very same people. You don't like my kind, too bad.

[rocketlover59]

american soldier right here never been overseas b/C OF medical shit but i know and have lost people close to me so dont ever disrespect any service member there the reason ur sitting where u are not is because they fought for freedom

thanks

[floridianman27]

I am heard of hearing, who is the artist and what is the name of the song. I would like to pull up the lyrics for this.

[IamSam1090]

lay me down but idk who its by

[marblechamp]

Its called If your reading this by Tim McGraw

[t0talYdem3ntiD]

"they gave their tomorows for your today"

if you have any negative thoughts think about bout this, you say "the military kills mothers" you have the right ot say that....WHY.... because of the military you hate so much..... you live in a house and see your family everyday they choose not to so you can.

god bless all the troops fighting overseas and may they have a safe return home...

[RayeMcGarrett]

I would love to hear people talk shit about MY brothers and sisters in uniform. I am not in the military HOWEVER I appreciate and let soldiers know how much I appreciate them fighting for my SAFETY and FREEDOM. If anyone has hateful stupid shit to say about them, get your ass to Iraq, Kuwait or any other country where war is in progress and see if you would still think the same stupid thoughts. Thank you MY soldiers, although I may not know you, I always carry a prayer in my heart for you.

[mechanicalmartians]

u ever thought about jumping off a cliff? cuz ill be there to give you a shove

[USMilitaryEatsDong]

not really.

[mechanicalmartians]

well maybe its time to reconsider

[IamSam1090]

go play in traffic.

[unknownlucy]

what? what the crap is your deal?

[armyguysgirl]

beautiful clip ...what brave men and women god bless you all

[steviezman1982]

great video.

this song makes my wife cry all the time. army 6 years hooah!

[wade7104]

lieblieberman is a sorry excuse of a human and one of the most cowardly individuals I have every encountered. God bless our troops.

[Tdbprincess125]

It is the soldier, who salutes the flag, who serves under the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, and who allows the protester to burn the flag."

This is a beautiful video for those who lost their lives. Hateful comments should be taken elsewhere.

[Strunnn]

I agree. I will serve the U.S. once im out of College, i plan to have a 2 way ticket and live in that nation i love and serve, but if God calls my name, ill go. This is indeed a beautiful song for this video...

[Tdbprincess125]

It is 6am and I have been awake most of the night. There are nights like this sometimes. My Marine is in Iraq serving his country protecting freedom of speech that allow hateful comments like some on this post to be freely spoken. Those of us who have loved ones in the military know that there are those who will spew hatred. It's ok. Stooping to your level is not my style. So when my Marine comes home, I will tell him thank you on your behalf....sleep well tonight, my Marine is on watch.... "

[lieblieberman]

How about a tribulte to all the women and childern the US soldiers killed and raped.

[FadedFlight]

your a funny person, obviously your another one of those news whores thats addicted to the fucking 11 o'clock news...do your research then come back and we can see maybe if you got a little smarter.

[lieblieberman]

You talk shit because you are shit: a mindless idiot who knows nothing and can be conned out of your own life by people who live a lot better than you. You work for a living right? Pay taxes, maybe? Well///your leaders don't and live off of your money (if you even work and pay taxes)

[ScoobyJstn]

o that was also vietnam and i know my dad did a tour over there and its not like that so fuck u asshole

[lieblieberman]

Your father was a coward, and fool duped to go fight thousands of miles away for nothing. He's a moron like you.

[USMC5898]

For nothing? Theirs hundreds or troops dieing out there for YOU and all of us. If it werent for our troops you wouldnt be living in this place you call "Home", and nobody asked them to die for their people and country,they chose to. You have to think about these stuff,they decide to go through hell while your home watching tv.They're the reason why you can sleep in peace at night without worrying your house will be invaded or bombed. So next time,please think before you post comments like this.

[IamSam1090]

kill yourself.

[hubbell30]

Thanks for posting this. God Bless our soldiers.

[rdwngsfan92]

what is the name of the poem?

I'm thinking of joining, i'm not scared of iraq just nervous about basic

[urBAD2k8]

airesfebecker - im sure they dint die for political reasons! as a soldier u make a sacrifice and im sure most of the army join the army to support the other troops beside them not political reasons. . .

War doesnt prove whos right . only whos left!!

[sweenyscissorhands]

It;s really sad at 1:21 where the kid is holding the flag....

[Caratenboy45]

soldiers fight for freedom,so we dont have too. They make a big sacrifice,and for that God bless you!

[twilightluvr2011]

this made me bawl.

[SexiPrincess54]

Cant wait to join the Army !

[goarmysinknavy]

me two future army ranger and officer

[rebel6211]

beutifull vid. to those who made it home well done. to those who didnt god bless you and rest in peace. may we all meet again in a better place and time.

[airesfebecker]

Greetings from Brazil. Hope our american friends find peace. So sad those young men that dye for political reasons, for petroleum or worse: to support Israel and its abuses. Hope they dont dye for a lye.

[Zaelek1776]

Remember these people make a great and noble sacrifice for our sake, and for people who don't support that noble sacrifice. Remember that we live in a free nation which is free from the sacrifice made by our ancestors. I had a few relatives die in war. I'll never say they died for nothing, they died because there was something worth fighting for and they were willing to fight . God bless our troops, and in heaven may you live happily in heaven with all the angels, god, and our savior jesus

[Zaelek1776]

Tell me do you know what it feels like to be a soldier? These are people who put their most sacred possession on the line, their lives. You cannot comprehend how strong they must be to fight. To know that this day could be your last, to think will I ever come back. To wonder if you'll be able to come back home, to not know if you'll see your family again, to not know if you'll see if you will see your wife again. Show respect for the hell they go through for our sake.

[Zaelek1776]

This is a powerful message, I support our troops whole-heatedly. My older brother is in the army, and I am gonna join also when I can. I love this country America and will defend it with all my strength. And anyone who makes a mockery of their noble sacrifice, know you are free because of the brave who died in years past in a revolution which brought our nation here to the world. So show some respect for your army. We are the free because of the brave who fight for us.

[JerkyHole]

and ehm, 1:20-1:30 is heart breaking

[bull9stud]

who are you giving service to?your people?your service is for the tyrans corporate loving terrorists who pay your wages while you are in the military service,your jobs are being send somewhere else,your homes are lost to wallstreet financiers,you have little to no healthcare,your elders canNOT afford medical-prescriptionmedication or treatment,those who you serve give out billions to criminal financial corporations.WHO ARE YOU SERVING? us? NO.think.look.pay attention..from Iraq..El Toro.

[StarlingKiller]

No they die for pricks like you so you can live in our country and speak free. And you probably get free health care unlike a true American. So suck me. Show some respect!!!!!! Or go back to your country......

[Permindex]

We all know about the NWO and the problems they have wrought on our world. However as you have wisely spoken we are finally finding out about the Shadow Govt. The problems are easily id'ed but the answers are not. Our Forefathers told us about the central bank, international bankers and Khazar Jews who seek to eliminate our sovereignty through usury and encroachment of our liberties.

Our Republic has turned into an oligarchy ruled by the RIIA, CFR and other secret societies. Yes we need help.

[xom31177]

Thanks for posting this, it's truly an awesome tribute. God Bless the USA and all who defend her.

[bonda95]

this makes me cry so sad

[Zaelek1776]

Amen Bonda, God bless all who defend

America!

[MarcusAHart]

thank you for your video, i serve and so does half my family

[fmjrocks]

you should check out (fallen hero's by full metal jacket) very very deep new band

[Thans90]

Great video!

But may I ask, why is it only for troops SINCE 2001? Many troops have lost their lives since the beginning of this country to defend what we are trying to perfect. God Bless.

[xylem321]

You americans have a great bunch of troops.. not now.. but one day the whole world wil realise this war was for the best. and realise the troops who fought for and in it were the real heroes.

Wuv you USA! from England, uk. =]

[rich0001ncf]

just think i was there and i am going out there again and i saw over 5 soldiers die and i was in control of them as a captin and i was the 1 who had to tell there familys and make a speach at there funeral so if any of you lot want to know hot brave you haave to be to do that job sighn up and come and see me

Captin Surtees

[JerkyHole]

Well, i am going to afganistan in 3 weeks, 21 year old, and my woman is very sad..

War isnt fun, its a very dangerous mission to complete, and i may not be making it

[Abrams911]

God bless you for serving, and i'll pray for your safe return home, and all your brothers and sisters serving by your side.

Good luck and God speed.

[xylem321]

lol find some SAS and chill with them, you'll get home safely then ;)

[MamaOfThreeArmyBrats]

Some of you people are digusting. You should really think twice about what you post on here. My husband is in Iraq, he wasn't here when our children were born and has only seen them in photos. You know nothing about the struggles those men and women go through on a daily basis and their families go through so much as well. Please respect those who have past and those who are still out there protecting us.

[x2lovehate2x]

I totally agree with you, my older brother is out there, it breaks my heart to hear that it's horrible out there and he's there, risking his life, for us, sitting on our butts do nothing, well, most of us. Bless them all, God forgive us for fighting. <3

[dropthebomb5150]

Very well put MamaOfThreeArmyBrats and x2lovehate2x. Just remember it takes a special lady to be a military wife. Just my 2 cents to those who bad mouth our military in Iraq. If you dont stand behind them then stand in front of them. God bless our troops past and present

[Marines4life911]

It is the soldier,not the reporter, Who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier,not the poet, Who has given us the freedom of speech. It is the soldier,not the campus organizer, Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier,not the lawyer, Who has given us the right to a fair trial. It is the soldier, Who salutes the flag, Who serves under the flag, And whose coffin is draped in the flag, Who allows the protester to burn the flag

[seanrocks7]

rly good video. im thinking about going into the Marines when im 17 or 18

[mbss28]

whatever, this war isn't about freedom anyways so I don't have any feelings about your comments.

[MaverickSkatesLJ]

i am in the special forces of the us military. i was posted in IRAQ for a while, and this video almost made me cry, it made me relive all the pain and sorrow i had when i was stationed. please i just want to say think carefully before you post a rude comment about a video like this

[ILoveMyArmyMan08]

you know it really disgusts me that some of you want to be so ignorant and disrespectful by posting rude comments on this video, and others, pretaining the us army and those who LOST THEIR LIVES!

have some respect for the people who post comments on here saying they lost a loved one to the war, or are missing someone dearly.

it really disgusts me that you guys would post things like that.

[Gocardinals12345]

mbss28 shut the fuck up you ass holl thes solders gave ther lives to protect our way of life. you can say what you whant abalt the presudent or the pletekol leders. the solders are heros and i dont care what you say. thank you.

[mbss28]

It sad that only so few people respect what these men and women are doing for out country and for the ones that do make it home in my opinion deserve way more respect than they get

[bravoteam101]

this video is amazing no one can realy explain the life of a soldier unless you are one call of duty or any of the other video games cant realy show what its like when your fighting all the politics and reasons to fight go away. Wars horrible thing and thats somthing all of you should know i had a job were i choose how many shots to fire off at soldiers funerals i always gave 20 to each one. Thank You for the support guys
