Thank you to all the volunteers at DFW when I arrived at that airport. You won't believe how much those greetings, warm welcome and thanks thrown out to us meant to me and a lot of my buddies. I truly felt like I was in a safe and welcoming place which was a stark contrast to where I was not even 14 hours before. That truly made my day and I will never forget it till the day I die. THANK YOU!
Thank you for your service, it takes a certain type of person to do the job that you do, to protect the homeland from the evils that threaten it. I salute you soldier.
What a difference now compared what they had retiring from Vietnam. This show of thanks and solidarity will remain with the troops . We should always support our boys and girls in the forces...
They actually do hold ceremonies for Vietnam vets now. Ofcourse the liberal media doesn't cover it but our boys from the Vietnam war are finally getting the welcome home they deserved back then. Its just sad that some have passed away never getting to hear our apology
This is maybe the same day/week my husband came home through dallas after a full year deployed in Africa!! Thank you ALL who support our military and the families! ~Army Wife for Life~
As a DFW native for 41 years, I'm so proud of my hometown for doing this regularly, and just wish my Father's generation had gotten this welcome home from their service.
Triple that, same in Sydney Australia , I enlisted but being a longhair a snot most rookie cop thought it would be funny to punch me on the back of the head, 3 hits and 6 others took me too cop car. At court the judge saw that I'd enlisted and was due to go to Pukapunyal next week and due to retaliation after being in was put on a bond. Next week had all my hair cut off, got one train at 4.30am so nobody could see me. It Central departure paraded up a warrant officer called me out and under circumstances in had to come back in a year, not happy. But when i saw the useless crap spitting on returning soldiers , I sort of planted them for disrespect, sides in don't like nancy activists. We used to take in Americans on R&R, for years, and every one of them where the most respectful men I've never met. Of course my Aunt married and American, my cousin married a lieutenant US military soldier, but he had a real attitude, divorced him and married another American and I don't know now many nephews I have. Have to ask young cousin, last of the family in Australia. God bless and look after every military personnel.
All the many times we have been in the DFW airport, we have never seen anything like this. .We did, however, one December give-up our seats so that a small group of Oregon National Guard people could fly home together for Christmas with their families. They would be going back on deployment after their Christmas leave. It was a small thing we could do for them, just a small way to show our appreciation for all they do for this country.
Wow. I went home on leave from Iraq in April 2009 and I went through Dallas. They were there for us too. It was amazing. This brings back some memories.
Thank you for your service, sir!!! I am a Romanian army veteran, when I came back from theaters of operations , I didn't care if anyone was waiting for me at the airport or not! I knew that I responded ''Present!'' when the interest of my country asked me to go on a mission and I did my duty as best as possible, proudly under the flag of my country!
I remember walking through that exact hallway in 2011 returning from Afghanistan with the 4th BDE, 10th Mountain Div. (Ft. Polk, LA). I love the state and people of Texas!
It always felt good seeing all of the people as we came back, day or night. What broke me was went a Vietnam Vet told me I was his hero. No battle, you are mine.
Great show. You Americans know how to treat your service personnel. In my country, when I returned from Operations, we had to keep a low profile. We would never be treated will such gratitude.
What a brilliant thing to be hold you can see these people LOVE their soldier's be proud of fighters for freedom Gid Bless all and their loved ones The greatest thing a South Africa can behold .
This may have taken place 12 years ago but it really made me cry. God Bless our Military and thanks to each and everyone of you. God Bless and may he keep you safe where ever life takes you. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💓💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
I remember these days. I felt like a celebrity in the airport. Everyone was cheering and clapping, and I turned around and no one was behind me. I was like whattttt? For me? Wow! One guy even offered me half of his sub, and insisted that I took it with me after I refused. But, that was the best damn sub I ever had. Cold cut trio from Subway. Ha ha!
When I was a flight controller for Ryan Int'l, we flew a lot of those flights, and there was nothing I loved more than after briefing the Captain, then telling the Onboard Troop Commander that I was able to eliminate the Canadian Tech Stop, and today's Leipzig-Dallas is a nonstop flight; you might want to give your welcoming committee a head's up; your new ETA is around 7am... I hated working flights eastbound down range, but I loved working westbounds coming home.
I remember beign on a flight out of Milwaukee (Mitchell Int'l to Michigan) with guys that were from the Army I presume and they gave the pilot shit the whole way there until we landed (all in good fun naturally). After we touched down and stopped at the 1 of 2 gates...the pilot came on board for the 6 or 8 of us non-military people and told us "this was perhaps, the greatest and most memorable flight I've had in 35 years of flying...and as of today I'm retiring". I kid you not the flight was laughs the whole way from take off to touch down, and the pilot's shake at the end of the flight let me know...he knew when to end it ;) He was a Navy pilot and knew when to say his duty was done, he reached to shake my (13 year old hand) and I saluted him (I had 2 cousin in the military, one a Naval Officer on submarines and the other a flight instructor with the Air Force) this man earned it! His response was a salute, smile and a hug :P After telling him about my cousins he knew who the one was and actually was one of the guys who stopped at our place in their passing from the AF Academy to their stations for the night and thanked ME and my family for our hospitality. Military families respect military families liberal or not ya dig ;) (yes my family is hardcore liberal but i fall asleep knowing a .357 magnum keeps us safe at night :) )
And thank you and all the citizens of France for taking care of our fallen from ww2 who lie in cemeteries all across france.you take care of them like your own.thank you.
I hope this brings solace to all those veterans of the Vietnam War, who returned to their Land-of-Plenty, to be met by the spitting, most-spoiled generation!
After a year and a half in viet nam arrived home and there were many holding anti american flags and people yelling, "Baby Killers" at us, still in all, I was just so thankful to have made it home
Hi! I am making a music video for a local band and was wondering if I can use some of your footage from these videos? I will credit the sources. Thank you!
America’s Gallant Soldiers By: David O.

I live in DFW and they have people that volunteer to greet returning Military. We feel they deserve it.
This is how our troops should always be welcomed home

Including the Taliban when they return to their family after rpg’ing a US chinook ? Or we are hypocrites
@@lordoffrog2354 u again XD
@@lordoffrog2354 all soldiers should be praised when returing.

with such videos I always have to think of the comrades who never came home again. We miss you💔
Here in the UK we have a saying in our Forces !,At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, we will remember them!.
Thank You and God Bless 0ur Vets & Country!
I was doing this before these kind of reactions became popular. It STILL never gets old.
I was one of those returnees from Iraq who received this reception. We had no idea. I will never forget it, and will always be appreciative.

You are true patriots. Thank you for that. I have so much respect and gratitude for our military and our first responders.
Wow. I went home on leave from Iraq in April 2009 and I went through Dallas. They were there for us too. It was amazing. This brings back some memories.
These always make me cry...
me too.
Damn it Texas always has to show us how to honor the troops. Welcome home and enjoy your rest!
I want to say thank you to the people of DFW. When I came home from Iraq we stopped in DFW and they did the same for us in 2006.
OMG! I cried so much........ all these years later and I am sad basket of tears! WELCOME HOME EVERY TIME!!! ♥♥♥

How long does the troops usually are out?

Eduardo Piston Depends on branch or MOS/AFSC can range from 6 months to 1 year
9 to 18 months depends on the type of deployment
Man I love this country so much. God bless you all🇺🇲
Fantastic
After a year and a half in viet nam arrived home and there were many holding anti american flags and people yelling, "Baby Killers" at us, still in all, I was just so thankful to have made it home

America’s Gallant Soldiers
By: David O. Melton
America’s gallant soldiers
Serve to keep America free,
And some pay freedom’s highest cost
And die protecting you and me
These valiant men and women
Whose mortal bodies now lay still,
In death earned the greatest honor
Herald by a lone bugler’s skill
Because they preserve our nation
Chosen honor guards stand abreast,
While a lone bugle sounds out taps
For each great soldier laid to rest
Yet far greater than all these things
Beyond the stones of marble white,
Behold God’s tribute of honor
That’s shining eternally bright
Greater love has no one than this,
To lay down one’s life for one’s friends,
This honor is proclaimed by God
Over everything it transcends
Now honor our gallant soldiers
Who under freedom’s banner fall,
Soldiers who had to leave loved ones
And made sacrifices for all
Uplift their hurt and grieving child
Left to long suffer and travail,
Each soldier’s widow and orphan
Greatly needs our help to prevail
Let our nation and our people
Honor all sacrifices made,
Now honor our gallant soldiers
And our sacred freedoms they saved
this is fucking beautiful :')
Respect from s.korea
Such a great citizen...
super yaar
God Bless America always makes me cry! Add soldiers to the mix and I'm a snotty, blubbering mess!
i love america.from Mizoram.north east india
Amen!
Those people setting portland on fire should be here thanking these people for their freedom
4:29, I borrowed this suit from someone mam..🤔🤔
In South Korea, this is an unimaginable situation. Korean soldiers are treated less and socially than guard dogs. worse than criminals.
They forgot about us the troops that served in Nam , I got spit on and cussed out
Those soldiers are like “eeeee please don’t”
I need a kleenex.
same
