Compilation video I put together to pay tribute to those who have served. I do not own any of the sourced media. You will hear no objections from me if you choose to use this in a respectful manner!
My great grandpa fought in ww1 and my grandpa and his brother in ww2,I'm gonna fined out what ship they served on and my uncle was navy in the 80s but was never in conflict and my other grandpa was in the military but can't remember if it was piece time or which war he fought in.i went to go serve after 9/11 but was turned away not for felony history but for other reasons. I respect all those who put there life on the line everyday. Thank you all for keeping us safe.
Thank you all vets for your service every creed every nationality YOU are what makes America shine God bless you and your familys may god watch over you allways.😀👍
I come from a family of proud military men ! My dad was a Master Sergeant. His brother was a higher ranked officer. My brother is a living vet. I also have uncles too that have served. I would have for I have 4 yrs ROTC in high school but life didn't allow me! 🫡🇺🇸
I agree and will also be sharing this video tomorrow during our church service. Thank you for taking the time to put this powerful video together. Freedom is NOT free !!!
To any veteran who reads this THANK YOU. I truly appreciate the sacrifices made. May higher powers bless you all and AMERICA as well !!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
My father is 92. He is currently the youngest surviving POW of WW2. He was captured during Mission to Hammelburg near the end of ww2. He lives with my mother on their farm, I go there a couple times a week to help out. My grandmother made it to over 106 and my dad is in pretty good health. I cherish every moment with them. I feel so very blessed and this message is to share it.
He don't see him self as a hero,like they all say they were doing what they were trained for and doing there job but we all see them as hero's. The. Best military in the world and I'm glad I'm on this side.🇺🇸
@@jeffreywinters293 you got it right he says he's just one of a few million. When the war was long over the truth about that mission came out but that is a topic for a different time. He went on to college and try to join ROTC but due to asthma they did not want him good thing cuz his entire unit was sent to Korea and died there. Every last one.
When my dad took the train to the East Coast to ship out he had to wait 3 days for a prescription gas mask due to his eye site. All the he was with went to Italy where the war was over and it was wine women song. Funny because as they marched to combat the first thing that every Soldier threw into the ditch was the heavy gas mask.
Honor and blessings be upon all veterans, and a prayer for those fallen in service: "I ask of Thee by the splendor of the Orb of Thy Revelation, mercifully to accept from him that which he hath achieved in Thy days. Grant then that he may be invested with the glory of Thy good-pleasure and adorned with Thine acceptance." ~ Bahá’i Prayer
My 95 year old neighbor across the street is a WW2 and Korea war veteran. He's still out mowing his own lawn, shovelling his own snow, and even does his neighbors' lawns and my next door neighbor who is battling cancer. He's one of the most awesome people I know. Very thankful for him.
Wish I could have met my Uncle who passed on 6-6-44 Normandy "Billy" Paul Hacker. My other Uncles I met, and they never forgot Pearl Harbor and their brothers who sacrificed all. Paul Hacker I swear that one day I will bring you home to be buried next to Grandmother. She missed you so much.................
I just wanted to let you know I've been showing this to by Criminal Justice Students for last two years and its the best! It gets many of them choked up and opens up real conversation about those who serve and served our country for the freedom we have each day. Thank you!!
As a veteran, i am touch and honored to be serving my country. I am also honor to serve great men and women like yourself. Thank you for making this. I will be sharing to all my brother and sisters in arms.
I am writing this from California USA on Veterans Day Wednesday, November 11, 2020. Thank you for posting this, I just found it. What an exceptional tribute with powerful images. The words of President Reagan and President Kennedy add eloquence to this stirring presentation. May I also add my thanks to those who have served the USA in the military.. In doing so, let me also thank the people who have served In the military of countries around the world, whether they be allies or enemies of the United States.
My grandfather served in WW2 and two uncles served during Vietnam, my father served sixteen years in the US Army and I served in the US Army, I raised my right hand and took the oath. my time was cut short due to injury, for this reason I really don't consider myself to have the honor of being called a Veteran
My birthday is not exactly on Veterans Day, it is right around it though. Because my birthday is so close to Veterans Day, I have a similar feeling about it as you do. Happy Veterans Day birthday!
Great nation so many men and women have sacrificed and died so I will sacrifice for my country I was born and raised in Ennis Texas born raised in America I will sacrifice for this beautiful country
Happy Veterans Day 2018 America!! To All Active Duty, Reserve and National Guard, and Prior Service USMC, USA, USN, USCG and USAF, Hooah!! I Thank GOD Almighty that He allowed Me to serve The United States of America as a US Marine and Army Ranger. In The Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth,GOD Bless The United States of America!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🤘💪
In my day in age I was a teenager when Reagan was President. This video is more for Memorial Day for those that have died for our country the United States of America. Veterans Day is for all men and women dead or alive that have put their own lives on hold to make our United States of America safe. There is a difference.
As a veteran myself I am well aware of that. This touched on both aspects. It was designed to be used as a tribute at one of our firework festivals and I never expected it to blow up like this
Thank you all our veterans for great services our country. and everytime we so grateful! for your sacrifice your life for our homeland. Our great hero soldiers!! We are ONE GLORIOUS NATION UNDER GOD. WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!! GOD BLESS UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! GOD BLESS OUR GREAT NATION! GOD BLESS OUR MAGNIFICENT ARMY! GOD BLESS US!.
Mr. Richards, I wanted to see if we might be able to show this on our video board for a high school football game this Friday in honor of Veterans Day? This was an amazing video to watch, and truly honors those who have served our great country.
God bless all who served and those fallen... "For is it not your clear duty to restrain the tyranny of the oppressor, and to deal equitably with your subjects, that your high sense of justice may be fully demonstrated to all mankind?" ~ Baha'i Faith
Shout out to all veterans and active duty service. Those veterans include Agrippa Haull Revolutionary War vet, George Washington and Martin Van Buren of the 55th Massachusetts regiment, Private James Stone 1st Light artillery of Ohio regiment and the 107th colored infantry of Fort Lincoln.
So help me GOD, E-1 1967, thru 2lt XO 2nd Btn 218th Arty 1973. No matter who, no matter whether or not we like them our President is still our Commander in Chief. GOD Bless and Protect!
Michael, this is a fabulous video. Thank you for your work on putting it together. I was wondering if it would be ok with you to use this as an opening segment of a our virtual veterans day program that my school will share with the community? I will not profit from the video. I am wanting to use it as an opening segment to a slide show that I have made with photos of staff and student's family members that were/are in the service. I know this is after Veterans day. We showed one at school and I am working on one for the community. Thank you.
To all the people who burn the flag, just stop and honor those who gave you the freedom to do what you do. So donate to any veterans charity you chose and take this day to remember those who died for you.
Would you be willing to allow portions of this video to be used as a background video on the homepage of our nonprofit veteran housing development webpage?
