I wanted to make this video to give my personal thanks to one man who inspired me to do what I do, even though he's not alive anymore - John Bradley. This past year I had to spent half a year in Great Lakes, North of Chicago, for training in the US Navy. All through Boot Camp and Hospital Corps School, whenever I got down, I just kept thinking about John Bradley, and it really helped me out.

I chose the song carefully for him and along with the other flagraisers in the photograph; the survivors, Ira Hayes, Rene Gagnon, and John Bradley were uncomfortable being praised as heroes of war. John Bradley said that they "certainly weren't heroes, the REAL HEROES are the ones who didn't come back home."

Also to my Friends and Subscribers my next video will be Sonic related, just in case you were wondering.

Song: Hero of War

Artist: Rise Against
