These people are real flesh and blood people. Daughters, sons, fathers, mothers, uncles, aunts, cousins, friends and the list goes on. Remember them and honor them so that in some way they will go on, so that all may know the sacrifices they made for all. God bless our Troops.
IMy grandfather fought in WW1, My dad is a three war veteran, WWII (paratrooper), Vietnam and Korea. He spent his life in the Army and still carries the scars from WWII. My mother was a WAC during WWII. I was an Army wife and my son was in the Army.
We give eternal thanks for the sacrafices our military and their families make.
We are forever eternally greatful for those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. God Bless you and your family. You raised a true warrier for both man and God.

Thankyou from around the world. As a man of true faith you are in a better place with our Lord. May the Lord bless my ANZAC's and all soldiers around the globe fighting for peace, freedom and liberties. Thankyou again for your sacrifice.
Thank God for soldiers like you. part of me wanted to be one, to defend my country, but circumstances in my life made that impossible. Rest in Peace corporal mason and know that the memory of you and your comrades will always be kept alive by americans like me. My Thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
He has fought hard now laid to rest peacefully to go with the Lord to his home honored highly for his bravery. God has trully blessed Chris. Chris was a true hero to me!!! God Bless The Troops!! May all who go to the Lord as a result of fighting for freedom, Rest in Peace!!!
Wow. What a young man. We forget we are in a war every day. The devil is alive and well. This young man was a sower of hope and truth. Praise God for all of our young men willing to sacrifice so much for the rest of us. Thank you for his sacrifice - and for yours. God Bless.
Whenever I feel down or that darkness is closing in around me ... I watch this video ... This young mans words are a drink of cool water to refresh the soul. I don't need to say God Bless Chris ... God already has.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
My comment was not for Chris at all. For that is only disrespect on my part, for Chris, and his family. But only to show that we need peace and not war and the result to fight in this war and in any war may only lead to one place for anyone.
Nrich1 - You speak as if Chris feared Death, who said Chris was dead? This is what Chris said about Death:
"You know, the guys over there cannot understand it. I can lay my head right over on the window of the Humvee and go sound asleep. They didn't understand how I could do that. It's because I have the peace of God in my heart and that if I do get killed here, that's not the end of my life." -Cpl Chris Mason Sept 2006-
Chris's sword was the Gospel, he can never die,can you say the same?
All I can say is it could have been me. 82nd Airborne 1977-1990 Panama Invasion. A soldier comes home as I did alive. A hero comes home at eternal peace. Salute.
Dear family of CPL Mason, thank you for sharing him with us ...both in his service to our nation and through his testimony. Though i don't know him, he is my brother in Christ and I will truely miss his presence. He is a true hero of our nation and a hero of the faith!! I can't wait to meet him in heaven. Blessings to the Mason family and friends.
Rest Mom, Rest Dad, Your son loved truth and he loved Christ. Thank you for allowing him to help keep us free. To Chris and all the ones who lost their lives, THANK YOU!
I'm glad he served, sorry his family lost him...in reality, we as soldiers accept death when we join the military...that's fine...I'm still sorry you lost him
<i>God bless you and yours Chris. You are in HIS Highest arms now and your sacrifices were not in vain. You are the heart of this country that keeps the rest of ours beating. May you rest in peace and the LORD transcend your family's prayers giving them the peace and comfort knowing you're in a better place.</i>
Thank you for sharing this video!! He was among the best that this country has. He did a great service for the good people of this world why some people cant understand this ill never know. People like him make me proud of our service men and women! God Bless!
Heartbreaking and moving. Thankyou so much for sharing with us and reminding us that true heroism has a face and a voice. God bless this soldier for Christ
Im so sorry for your loss, he was a hero as are all serving men and women in the armed forces of the great nations in the world. May he rest in peace and may you find solice in that he is with god now.
Thank you so much for sharing your son's life with us. There are two types of freedom, physical and spiritual and your son was a warrior to defend both. May the Lord bring you and your family comfort during this time. God Bless you all.
I have no words that can express how sorry I feel for your loss. I can tell he was a very special person. I have a son serving now with the 82nd Airborne 1-325.
I am sorry for your loss. I also lost my Son, Lance Cpl. Harry R. Swain Iv USMC 1/2 Alpha Co. Jan 31 2005 in Iraq. God Bless, Semper Fi....Harry R Swain III
I am so sorry for your loss, I also want to thank Chris for giving his life to protect us all here. He is a man we are so proud of. It takes a very special person to be there and to fight for our freedom. I thank you and his mother for having a son as wonderful as he is. He is with God now and remember he is always with you.
I saw a comment/question on here that said "satan won, Jesus Lost?" Well, let me answer that comment. Satan loses every time someone watches this video of Chris speaking the Gospel. Satan lost because Chris was saved by the blood of Jesus and is in Heaven. Jesus is a winner all the way around here.
Eph 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ:
As Satan is the god of this world, we live in tribulation. We can look forward to the gifts for the Body of Christ in heaven.
2Co 4:4 In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
JUNK:like you said this is open to the public... so why would you think you are impervious to remarks? respect for one anothers lives are at stake here and to me this channel is sacred... and i will defend it. i do thank you for your phone number, in return i did send mine... lets keep it positive here... any complaints send me a message or call me...
I cannot begin to tell you how this video of your beautiful son has touched my heart he went home on the day my son was born. I am sending healing and prayers for your hearts and our loss as a nation. My sons name is Ronan Colin Tilley And I hope that he would grow up to be hlf as brave as your son was..Thank you so much for sharing him with all of us.
That was an incredible video... It's been three months today and I still can't believe it... Mason was a remarkable man and made a huge impact on everyone he came in contact with.... I love and miss him very much. ... Lori
What a very powerful video! Thank you for sharing it with me. God Bless Chris Mason! I never had any children, but if I had had children I would want someone like Chris Mason. A true American Hero that gave his life for the USA. What a loss for us! What a gain for God in Heaven. My condolences to all his family.
An American our founding Forefathers dreamed of! Things like this should be in the "mainstream news:
The President of the United States, George W. Bush, authorized the following quote be placed on Chris's headstone: "We Will Not Tire, We Will Not Falter, And We Will Not Fail" with the president's signature
America Loves you Chris, your values and your family. ...God's speed...
I'm just a cowboy, but I want to thank you for doing what you did to ensure that I will always be just that. A cowboy
