  • Word has been passed - world-wide, and among Marines on the internet.

    Heartbreaking song which must be heard.

    Good luck to you all

  • Matt needs our help as he makes that journey on his tractor to D.C. Please do something to support him. We need to write his Congressman/senator to see if we can be of help.

    Matt is a very sick Gulf War Veteran, who has been waiting for and

    denied help and treatment for his conditions by the VA for many years now. Yesterday, Matt left his home in Missouri on a farm tractor headed for D.C.

    Please help him by passing this youtube and message on to everyone you know.

  • Thank you for helping to spread the word! God Bless You!~Nancy

  • Good job Guy's. You Know it's just the little things like that which we all can and should do for our soldiers. It's certainly not their choice to fight these battles but they definitely need our support during and after every conflict. I'll say a prayer for Matthew.

    (quick note Nancy not all of your text is readable it ends at 19 yrs later, he. Not only myself but I'm sure many who would view would won't the rest of the story ( if you have the time of course) ). Outa characters, God Bless You

  • Good News...this video is popping up everywhere! It's being attached to every military blog that I brought up last night! God is Blessing this trip. Matt is in Kentucky headed for DC. Please start a prayer chain for him, Adam. He isn't feeling too whoopy, though his spirits are high. ~Nancy

  • Am sending a letter to his Congresswoman, Jo Ann Emerson, 2440 Rayburn HOB, Washington, D.C. 20515. Tried to do it through her House email, but it would not take my information (as I am out of State, not in Missouri.)

    Everyone else write her to help Matt get the benefits he deserves.

    Thank you, Nancy.

  • Thank you, Becky! Matt will be here at my home in Kentucky on his way back from DC. I will let him read everyone's comments. God Bless You for helping us spread the word.~Nancy

  • Great Job, God Bless Matt on his trip, I have walked in the same shoes, I may be able to help, faught the VA for 16 years, until claim finally went through
