Going Home has become a standard bagpipe song played at funerals, both military and civilian, for years. In fact, as we carried my own grandmum out of the funeral home to the hearse, a piper played it for her. I'm a former soldier, and far too many of the best & brightest young people who have gone in harm's way to protect our freedoms have paid the ultimate price for us. Not just Americans, but our allies, too. Never forget...

    Do not judge the soldier carrying a gun in the trench. Accuse the man carrying the pen that sent him there.

    "Do not blame the soldier carrying the gun in the trench, blame the politician who sent him there." I agree! If politicians would focus less on bickering, we could get more done.

    You are all wrong don't judge this at all. It is not about war it is about the fallen or lost. It doesn't matter why or how. I became teary when I saw the slouch hats on the Aussie coffins - God bless them

    Schön zu sehen, dass in diesem Video auch an deutsche Soldaten gedacht wurde. Obwohl der Anlass ein trauriger ist. An alle die Gefallen sind, ruht in Frieden.

    Saw it on the news, the killer complaining about the country that probably feeds and clothes him for free. death penalty should be brought back for terrorists. this definitely was planned, don't know anyone who walks around with a meat cleaver and butcher knife.Sorry for the soldier and his family.

    Who the fuck do you think ye bloody are? Gandhi? Even he didn't want violence either but unfortunately his fellow Indians went into civil war against each other and got shot in 1948. So much for peace and freedom when that happens.
