Great VIdeo!

[Valpocade]

Thanks :) I appreciate it. Being a veteran myslef and having a Grandfather who is a World War II veteran makes Veteran's Day special for us.

I think the way you make your videos are great and your creativity beautiful.I think the fact you got to fly really fast planes is also cool.I wish all humans the right to freedom and all peoples the right to a life that's safe,fulfilling and filled with loving folks,in an environment that is in complete harmony with every human.War is not the answer.Segregation of race, creed, colour, sex and caste will only result in misery.

Thanks for the compliment and let me say that everything you said is true in a perfect world, however I am a realist and I know that there are people in this world who's whole purpose is to deny liberty and freedom which is why we must reamin vigilent.

Whats sad is that someone rated it less than 5 stars. Must be a non-American. :p

I was not suggesting that the U.S. won the world wars on its own I am only saying that we came without question to the aid of those suffering in Europe and put our industrial might firmly behind defeating the Nazis and the Japanese, many nationalities did indeed suffer greatly I am not discounting that. We are trying to make up for wrongs done to Native Americans but my family was in Poland when that happened.

You sound as if the Americans won a war on their own. Better look into the figures and facts. Many of the worlds people DIED full stop, all over the world in the first and second wars, not just Americans. I think you will find this approach to freedom has been done over and over again without much success... are you truly free?? Do your Native American citizens share your views with war and freedom and killing people for your own gain?

I had first had experience of living with a veteran of war; I saw how the horrors of war disfigured a person from the inside out. Dying for others is commendable; killing another human being in the process is not. Patriotism is the reason why we have wars in the first place, it this segregation that I would love to see change one day.

I have to add that does not mean one should not be proud of their country. The United States has made great sacrafices for the rest of the world in 2 world wars. Many many died so that many nations can be free.
