    I would not want the weight of that medal on my shoulders for anything. As a veteran I have enough of my own issues without that. I can’t imagine what you go through everyday.

    That fucking min I walk into my bed room with my wife a sleep. Woke her and told her I needed her.. She looked at me with out me saying a word she told me TODAY I AM YOUR ROCK.. Thanks man your story made me see. My day was not shit that day. There's a lot more to this but not willing to share here. Just hope you see this . THANK YOU SIR!! God Bless..

    My husband is a disabled combat veteran as a combat engineer to defuse IEDs, and this hit me hard. I have never understood my husband more then watching this. What spoke volumes is realizing that we more then not want them to be damaged, and all that does is make them feel more alone, and you don't even realize you don't have to have walked in their shoes to have compassion, to not want them to be sick, that's what we do when we argue how they should feel about their service i.e when we try and convince them how much of a hero they're, not everyone goes overseas and comes back a heartless killer, not even snipers, stop the stigma now, it's not fair to them.

    I couldn’t imagine living with that much pressure. So glad you’re using being awarded the Medal of Honor to make the world a better place. #OTDBreakTheSwitch

    this is what i love about the military and the men and women who get medals of any kind, are so humble about it.

    This is the kind of motivation that hits at the core of everything! Maybe one of the central, most important parts of where humanity & the Marine Corps meet. What have I done today to earn my title, I got in trouble at the VA again..... This time I have a national behavioral flag against me. I have this sickness called being a Marine where I can't just sit back & watch other Veterans get treated like crap at my local VA without saying or doing something about it. Keep my bearing? Its hard to do when you're looking at someone who you know has purposefully treated other Veterans & yourself like trash because of some sick agenda they have against what we stand for. I'll be the first person to tell you, I didn't do anything special in the Marine Corps but for some reason here I am. A retired Marine Corporal who continuously gets in trouble almost everywhere I go for standing up against the evil shit that I see everywhere. When most people wouldn't do or say anything, I do & I always end up in trouble of some sort. Semper Fi Brother! You inspire me

    You are doing great and going down the right path. My hat is off to you. You speak from the heart. You have become one hell of a speaker and come a long ways from "greasing the bobcat". Good luck in the future.

    I love watching your videos and learning more about the true Dakota Meyer. Before I started following you I have to admit I only knew what the stupid biased liberal media wanted us to know about you. Please keep the videos coming and keep doing what you do!

    I would love to see Dakota Meyer and Danny Maher (Donny O'Malley) chat for a couple hours. They are two vets with diametrically opposed perspectives on war. Maher will wax poetic about a grunt's desire to kill, like a lot of marines I've known, while Meyer hates the suffering that war brings. Both are bulldogs, it'd be an interesting conversation.

    Is there anyway you can get your fellow SURVIVING MEDAL OF HONOR WINNERS to show up at the same place and time and show the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA'S public what IT'S ALL ABOUT!

      Actually there is a event sort of like what you mentioned that occurs each year, at least up until 2019, right before all this virus bullshit started. It occurs in Canton, Ohio, organized by The Patriot Project in N. Canton, Ohio. It’s a Black Tie Event organized to raise funds for Chiropractic Care for Veterans, and at the event there are numerous M.O.H. Recipients that speak on behalf of Veterans everywhere. Clint Romeshea, Leroy Petrey & Hershel Williams have been there, just to name a few.
