ALWAYS thank a Vietnam veteran for their service. They were treated so badly when they returned home. They appreciate the thanks, even all these years later. Most of them were drafted and didn't even want to be there and they were all so young, between 18-24 years old.
We couldn't agree more. I mentioned in the video that most of those people didn't want to be there, and it's tragic what they had to go through upon returning.
I had two very close school friends who died in Vietnam. They were both drafted right out of high school, and they never got to realize their dreams. I miss them so much. I dedicate this and every memorial day to them. RIP James and Stephen.
This band is amazing and outside of the country music community highly underrated. I just found you guys so if you haven't checked out their songs Holy Water Save A Horse Ride A Cowboy please do!
This hits hard everytime I watch it and its been many. I'm 66 yrs old, my husband served 72-76, but thank God they stopped sending troops to VietNam, he went to Germany instead
My Dad was in the Army around that time. He also got lucky and missed Vietnam and was sent to Germany. Crystal's uncle WAS in Vietnam for 2 tours. When I hear some of the stories from some of the people i used to work with I feel truly blessed that my dad didn't.
Love the reaction y'all. Agree with your assessment of those who in real time faced the war. Amazingly my dad and uncle never had their draft numbers called. My father in law went National Guard and wasn't drug into that mess. I ask others to critique, as a Monday morning quarterback, why we were there. Why hundreds of thousands of our neighbors were forced into a war that was never official. Who else is better posed to stop this? We must love and support them but also MUST fight against our neighbors being used as political pawns. Loving Our warrior but fighting against the war they're forced to fight is not a dig to them. Just shows how fair our country has fallen. 🤬❤️🇺🇸🙏
We 100% agree with you. Our government puts us into positions in which our fathers, sons, brothers, friends, and neighbors are forced to fight for their political goals, when those brave men and women come home they are judged by those who didn't fight. it's tragic.
@2 A.M Reacts exactly they need our support as we do whatever we can to keep protecting Our country not polticial interests. Same applies for every illegal war following WW2. Stay strong, always salty.
I thank everyone who in Vietnam. Our young men shouldn't have been there. It wasn't our war to fight. So many lives lost because our government stuck their nose into something that wasn't our business. At least that's my opinion, but I was very young then as I was born in 1964. And then the government and the country decided that they didn't deserve respect for what they were forced to do. They were spit on, or, I don't know if this is worse, but I think it would be, they were just ignored. It's like the country didn't want them anymore and just discarded them.
You are absolutely correct in all accounts. and I am ashamed of the way our American citizens treated these soldiers, When the people that they were protesting against were our government officials.
We thank your father for his service. Crystal's uncle served, as well. Her father didn't take it well that his younger brother had to go fight when he couldn't.

Thank you for putting on that uniform, Friend. that tells me that even though you weren't in combat, you were prepared to. and we appreciate you.
I had two very close school friends who died in Vietnam. They were both drafted right out of high school, and they never got to realize their dreams. I miss them so much. I dedicate this and every memorial day to them. RIP James and Stephen.
May we Never Forget. they also have our thanks for their sacrifice.
No it's not your wrong aunty the religion made to separate this world Dax was right 👍
My uncle was a "tunnel rat" during that war. He came back, but my mom said he was never the same.
Heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time!
too true.
Thank you for watching Remember its not about the War , Its about the Warrior Hand Salute from a Old Tired Vietnam Veteran
We need to start playing these songs!! And its time to take back our country.
War come and go but my Soldiers stay eternal Forever

@@2a.mreacts212where was your dad in Germany. My husband mainly North Point guarding nuclear war heads 73-75, the few other places
My grandpa served in korea. He didn't come back the same. Ended up in prison eventually. I barely got to see him a handful of times before he passed.
We're sorry to hear that, Friend.
@@2a.mreacts212 just want awareness for vets.
@@2a.mreacts212 Just trying to share another story. Have a good one everyone

To who ever feels offended.. You need to get out of the u.S.A.
The story behind this song is so heartbreaking. I love that they honored those men.
We agree. We're glad that the list of those men's names are at the beginning of the video so that we could all take a moment to honor them.
Bunch of Army Green faces. INFANTRY, complete mission and fight for your brothers.
My father served in Vietnam. hit really hard to home.
