  • As a member of the Canadian armed forces, I have seen both Innocents fall, but most of all my friends and brothers in arms. No one understands why we do the things we do.

  • Trying to do the right thing - hope our government is doing the same.

    A prayer - your lives we'll never spend in vain.

    A prayer - all will know your name.

    A prayer - we never wage war in greedy shame.

    A prayer - those we choose to send you must have spent their time the same.

    A prayer - we go to war ONLY in god's name.

    A prayer - those that we would battle will find they want the same.

    A prayer - we find the strength in love and peace we can proclaim.

  • A soldier dies on the battle field and went to the gates of heaven where he met God. He said to God "Lord I know I've done many things I'm not proud of and if you send me to hell I will understand". God stood before him and said to the gatekeeper "let him in". Confused, the gate keeper asked "why". God responded "because he just came from hell and he needs to rest". Enjoy your freedom? Thank a soldier!!!! Thank you my Brothers and sisters!!!

  • I saw a member of NZ SAS in there that I knew

  • I try to watch this video without crying and it reminds me of the young Army Rangers who died saving me and my troop, ppl say America are a bunch of fat slobs, but that's rubbish America is not just there for it's citizens but for the whole green planet thank u

  • Marine Corps in 3 years I hope

  • I'm over here everyday, don't censor! It's the soldier, not the reporter who has given us Freedom of the Press. It's the soldier, not the poet, who has given us Freedom of Speech. It's the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the Freedom to Demonstrate. It's the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the Right to a Fair Trial. It's the soldier who salutes the flag, serves under the flag and whose coffin is draped by the flag, Who gives the protestor the right to burn the flag.
  • @yayamamasami 1 of the most well spoken and true comments I have ever heard ... I personally salute you and thank you 100%

  • @yayamamasami  Absolutely Right.

  • @yayamamasami Amen to that and thanks to all of our servicemen and service women overseas fighting.

  • @yayamamasami my bro is comeing home in 8 days (:

  • Right on man

  • If you have been there and done that it will about make you cry if I had heard this song in Afghanistan I would have probably broke down crying

  • Interesting. My buddy told me about my photograph being on an Everlast video on youtube. Didn't expect it to be the thumbnail of this video. That was a scary day, and a big rush when I kicked that door in because I didn't know what was going to be on the other side of it. This was in An Nasiriyah AKA "The Naz" (Southern Iraq). Thanks for this video, and thanks to all for your support. -Cpl "Dave", USMC, 2001-2005, 0311, 2nd Battalion 8th Marines (2/8) Fox Co, 2nd MEB - Task Force Tarawa.

  • I take the oath and sign contract teusday. I ship out January 30th, proud to serve my country. I turn 18 in 3 days.

  • @CesarMunster congrats and good luck

  • Thanks for putting this together. Thanks to my son, young son and David Letterman, I discovered "Whitey Ford Sings the Blues" and I've been hooked ever since. I've been out of the US Army since 87 but my thoughts and prayers are with the men and women that serve and their families. When I joined, women were in communication and few other MOS's but now they fly choppers and everthing inbetween. Stay strong at home and in the field.

    13-fox forever-or seven seconds-which ever comes first.

  • everyone says support the troops but i say support the troops and there familys cause you dont know how it is to worry weather ur going to see ur dad or mom its hard i know cause im a proud military child

  • to you 20 fuckers that don't like this video id like to see you try to put your feet in a pair of our combat boots and put you're life on the line defending your country... i joined the army 14 days after i turned 17 tto help keep our country free so yeah fuck you

  • i dont understand why people dislike this video or any video that is related to their countries vides.. So many people hate their country, but the people in America should be happy and blessed they live here in this great country that let's you live here with only a small price to pay, please if you hate your country that let's you live in it, then don't disrespect the ones who fight for your country everyday.. even if u don't live in the best country in the world..

  • @luckmanprod I think it may be because some people don't agree with WHY these troops are dying and having their lives and families torn apart. I support the troops all day. Every time I hear this song I have to fight the tears. I have people in my family in the Marines so I know first hand plus Everlast puts it so perfectly, he gets to the point, and it's a beautiful song. But on the other hand he says it in the song he hopes the government is doing the right thing and frankly that's debatable.

  • my brother just left to iraq. it means alot to see so many people supporting our troops,and really understanding how real it is! without them we wouldnt be free.we wouldnt be able to say what we want,beleive in what we want,or even go where we want! and the harsh reality is,this is what they go through for us to be free!!! they give up so much,and it means alot to see that some people still understand that!

  • Best tribute and at 3:16 is the best picture!

  • Motivating, bro. I remember watching this video over a year ago before I enlisted, and I found it again in my favorites today. So glad I did. Thank you for the support! Oorah!

  • Kick ass tribute! Proud vet.... Some people don't want to know what these brave Americans have to go through, just to get sent to one of the many armpits of the world!

  • Now im not much of an expresive person but when i watch this video it really gets to mebecouse i know that we have troops overseas in many places and they are scared but not alone becouse im there with everyone of them in spirit, fight on soldiers and know that we are gratefull

  • great video man. song fits like perfect to

  • I will never forget! thank you for the sacrifice you have given and what you stand for. You have stood in the front to show the world that the United States is the most powerful nation on this planet. I love and support you all.

  • right on engineer, 19 delta.. scouts out!!!

  • whos quote was that? at the beginning.

  • @maritimer88 It's a lyric from the song... :)

  • this video is awesome hooorra 12 bravo

  • This is a powerful song which seems to capture the emotional conflicts that lead to PTSD which is wreaking havoc on our brave men and women. I had never heard it before. Of course, we keep them and their brave families in our thoughts and prayers. Thank you for posting this.

  • Thank you to all the military that serve... from an ex-Navy nuke with PTSD and scars that can't be seen... <3 you all and my heart surfs the waves with you still. It always will.

  • Ok, everyone... for some reason there seems to be A LOT more negative comments coming at my videos lately (No worries, I delete them all before anyone sees them :D )... I just want to throw a reminder out that I DO screen all comments, so if you put something negative, or something that may cause arguments, I WILL delete it... The only comments I allow on my videos are those of peace, and of support for the people who serve our country. Thank you for your support, and God Bless.

  • @yellowrozeoftexas don't fret man haters everywhere :D

  • @yellowrozeoftexas Yellow roze of Texas I hope you can get some rain. Those who belittle and poke fun at what you have done here will stand before the angels, and fiery whips and chains shall wake them from their slumber, and they will remember the Will of God. Good men who do terrible things have a hard time staying good and it's a story worth telling and being honest about, they deserve that from us. God Bless You
