God Bless all the soldiers and the wives and children who suffer endless days of loneliness and sometimes the greatest loss they will ever feel for keeping us all free!
my brother is a marine, one day we got a call saying he was killed during patrol. my world just shattered into pieces, but we got another phone call saying they had made a mistake, my brother wasnt killed in action. his bestfriend died in his arms. that moment iwas in tears .
and please america (V A)dont stall these heros their do.honor them with the care they deserve.for those that fought for it FREEDOM has a taste the protected will never know.
Is there any way i can get a download of his song? my husband is in baghdad iraq right now and his base was just hit monday 6/6/11 and he was injured really bad and i would love to use this song to make a video to send to him and all the soldiers there with him me and his buddies wives there are getting together to make this video for them and we couldnt find a song that seemed to fit, but this one made all of us cry and it fits perfectly so please let me kno if there is a way we can use this
@bkaykilbride please send me a message at my email address which is ladilamborn at gmail, and we will get the MP3 file to you. THANK YOU to you and your husband for your sacrificial service!!
@ladilamborn thank you so very much i sent you an e-mail, i am so very thankfull for this
and there is no need to thank me or my husband we live this life and he choose this job not for the praise or thanks but be cause we honestly and truly love this country, god bless you <3
@bkaykilbride I'm so sorry. I'm praying for your husband and all the families of our active military. May I say thank you for your continued support of our country. I look forward to the day when when they all come home safely.
@bkaykilbride hope your husband is doin better by now. and thank him for serving my country. it means a lot to me that people like him are fighting for me and my family and ask for very little in return.
at the beginning of the video you have clip it was originally part of another music video but cant remember the name of the song can you tell me where you got it
66 years ago, American soldiers gave The netherlands it's freedom back! When I talk to my grandparents about it there is still so much gratitude and warmth in their voice! Thank you so much for what you did, fighting for people you don't know, save people when there was no hope anymore.. Thank you!
Your opinion about the war shouldn't matter whether you think we should be in the Middle East or not. What matters is showing support to our military because they're fighting for us, our rights, etc. Until you're in uniform and fighting don't talk all that bull. God bless all the men and women serving currently or served in the past. You have my gratitude and respect.
The price of freedom is high... but the toll that opression would take is even higher. If you can not support our troops just pray i don't EVER see you protesting... I have seen protests right outside of a funeral for a fallen Airman from my town and if i see such disrespect again i will make sure you no longer have the ability to disrespect our fallen heros
@DrPeppersaids if you will contact me via email at ladilamborn at google dot com and send me your email address I will have the artist send the lyrics. Thanks for your interest!
my boyfriends is in iraq now its almost been a year since i felt his touch and i try not to cry but people say its okeh i do i cant wait for him to come home so i can hold him and never let go<3 i miss him so much it hurt so much</3
people put down soldiers for things there doing cause their ordered to. but if you should blame or hate anyone. blame the politicians who send them to war
@nikolaitravolskie Contrary to popular belief among the hallucinogenic left, conscription ended a long time ago. These brave men and women are there of their own free will, and could easily leave the military once their term is served. The fact that so many choose to reenlist should tell you something of their beliefs about the war.
war isnt a hidoeus thing its beautiful people giving up lives family giving up their wrold for a whole new one where they dont want to be but they dont want their family to be in that craziness they fight for freedom and a better life for their family not because they thinks its fun killing people that was the nazi's vision in wrold war two and canadian and french fought for the jewish freedom
To Christa and Thomas Sabblut. Who will be over in Iraq and Afghanistan doing the same job. God bless you both. And thank you for your sacrifice. We will be waiting for you when you get home. Our hearts are there with you. We are going to stay right here, wait right here, pray right hear, until the day that you come home.
Abba Father God we thank you that you watch over & hear the prayers of those who exalt you as our mighty Creator to whom we accept & are grateful for Jesus Christ. In Jesus name we ask God to bless & keep those who serve & defend our country and /allied countries. Forever, we are grateful for the protection of the blood of Jesus to which we confess over the lives body & soul of our soldiers daughter wifes and husband of the armed forces. We pray in the mighty name of Jesus Our Lord. aamen
My Fiancées is a solder of the US Army and has been gone for almost a year. It has been the worst year... The worry just kills you..Thankfully he is coming home on October 9th, 2010...... All those people who don't support the war or the politicians fine just remember those men and women are risking their lives for you....
As I let go of your hand and once again trust this country with my heart, I know how hard I'll pray until the day you come home to your three sons, and to all those who love you so very much. Hell has called you back baby. Stay focused on Gods mission and bring all those boys home to their mothers. We will be waiting my brave daughter and NMCB 18.
at 1:53 he is paying respect to the next of kin which is actually the oldest living male child, wife or husband, the flag signifies a grateful nation and the loss of a soldier. he is saying that your fathe is dead is is thanking him in away for what his father or mother had done for the country. i am a Army vet from Iraq, and have done a couple militay funerals. they are not fun. but it is an honor to do.
A personal note - Thank your husband and all American soldiers for me. I appreciate all they do. My sisters husband served in Iraq also. God bless them all.
@KillaRubbaDucky yep its a military funeral, at every military funeral they give the family a folded flag that was on the coffin, its to honor the soldier that died, i have one of my grandfather, my other grandfather will get one when he dies and my father will to. it doesnt matter if there retired if you have a funeral honoring the death of a veteran its the same way.
"Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you...Jesus Christ and the American Soldier. One died for your soul; the other for your freedom".....
my husband is currently in afgh,we have twin daughters, one sleeps in his clothes and the other one sleeps holding his pic all night long <3 ..we miss and love him so much !!
that settles it i need to get my weight back off and get my ass back in, the jobs not done yet, and someone is putting in overtime because im not there to fill their place.
My babe is in Iraq now...I miss him like no tomorrow...he's in his 4 tour in Iraq...I always stay up late to get a 5 min phone call if were lucky it's longer...but even though it's just 5 min I'm glad I can hear his voice before I go to sleep...this song is for him, baby I'm waiting here for you and always will..be safe babe and always know I'm thinking of you and can't wait til you come.
@Matadesigns i know how u feel im a soldier and i havent been home for about a year and a half and its just as hard for us to be away from loved ones so keep ur head high and keep him in ur prayers he'll come home and also just know that ur my hero for staying strong when ur soldier is off fighting with the rest of us to keep peace and freedom in our homeland
@Matadesigns I also admire you for being true. So many girls aren't true to their soldiers and it makes me sick! My brother has been a victim of that! Its girls like you and I that have to come along and show the soldiers in out lives that not all girls are unfaithful & untrustworthy! Keep your head held high just like cpthammer1 said and keep your fiancee in your prayers! I will do the same for my brother and friends and all troops!!! God bless!
omg that picture at 1:52 is a tear jerker..i hope i never have to get that folded up flag..my bf is in the marines reserved though but he might get deployed in like 3 years
@TrueUSMarine VERY, VERY true!!! Support the troops, they didn't start the war but they sure need our support to finish it!!! I like this comment you made! My brother serves proudly! And nobody should hate soldiers!!!
Well, what are we supposed to do, let the enemy come over here and kill 5000 more people. The bible says there will be wars and rumors of wars. It's because of past wars that we can get on here and voice our opinion. I have a son who is a sailor. So I do have an investment.
@missyahamad thank you, thank you so much for your husbands protecting us, i am a police officer and i have seen the look in my sons eyes every time i put on my badge and gun and go out to protect the home front, i have saw the respect and the fear in his little eyes, he has a uncle fighting along side some where with your husband and i see the fear in his eyes.
please when you speak to your husband tell him that a officer from texas and a young boy of 8 thank him with all their harts
my fiance is currently stationed in afgantistan .. i cry everyday .. it is hard as hell not having him home and not getting his phone calls for weeks or a month when therye on a mission.... he comes home march or april of next year...... i love you baby..... come home soon
One of my best friends gets home from Afghanistan on Thursday for his 2 week leave!! =) He is on his 3rd tour, and i'm so proud of him and all the others
God Bless all the soldiers and the wives and children who suffer endless days of loneliness and sometimes the greatest loss they will ever feel for keeping us all free!
