    I'm so sad that when I was young I didn't quit understand their sacrifice. Now that I'm a man and a veteran myself I understand. I'm proud to have lived in a time to have known WW2 veterans

    Whenever people say it's the worst time in history to be alive in today's society, they really have no idea how far worse it was back then. I will always cherish and appreciate the good things we have today over the bad, and these kind of footage reminds me of that.

      I like to be an optimist about these things but more and more it seems like dark times are coming. So much growing hatred, divisiveness, bigotry, and suffering. It worries me a lot. I truly hope it gets better, lest these peoples sacrifice be in vain.

    I miss the old timers. I miss their presence. I'm a sentimental type guy and people and things mean alot to me. There was a different feeling they brought to the world and my Church. They were a strong dedicated group of people. Now adays nobody stands for anything and are easily corrupted. My Grand parents and great grandparents generation left a void in this world as they leave. I miss them and love them.

Every hardy soul I have had the honor to interact with that lived through this triumph has such a nonchalantness to them I cannot comprehend. In their minds, they did what they were supposed to do. This was the greatest generation of Americans that there will ever be. At our greatest time of desperation and need, they answered the call with flying colors. Happy 4th to anyone reading this. Despite what difficulties we may face, we have so much to celebrate🇺🇸🇺🇸🎇!
