Im 62 and this brought me to tears. Thinking of these children, and their family members. Also this makes me proud to be an American. Instead of hate, they all came together out of love and respect. God Bless America and her people. Protect these families a d all those working, putting their lives at risk to keep us safe.
We, as one nation under God, are capable of doing incredible acts! A post of a "sad story" can bring thousands of dollars to assist! During WWII, we were knocking out one fully ready battleship every day! We ARE capable of amazing and good things! But it's a real shame when one single person is able to take our amazing nation and turn it against itself. Love becomes hate. Maybe you are against things our country is involved in and that's okay! Protest! Walk on Washington! Bitch up and down your street! But riot? Hurt and/or kill others? Really, sit down sometime and take a good look at every other country! Then imagine yourself living there! Compare it to your life and home here! And please, if it looks greener on the other side, get your butt over there!
@@jennie2921 so are other countries ? sorry but are you statistically astute on just how many countries we've gone into and left completely devastated ? for what repeatedley proves itself to be little more than greed , ...... and if I may be quite frank with you , your answer was no answer at all ,
to all the children and families, Thank you is not enough. May God bless and keep you in His amazing love. For greater love has no one, than this, to lay down their lives for a friend.
There was a poem I once read in a book. I think an excerpt of it is fitting here: For the sake of thee I stood my ground For the sake of thee I bore the sound Of bullets as they whistled past And each one sang "All flesh is grass" ‘Ere long one came and laid me low And falling as I felt the blow As I laid, that’s all I know I might have lived 10,000 days I could have died a thousand ways But for thy sake, I chose THIS way. It may not be exact, I’m doing it from memory. I read the book several years ago, but the sentiment is there. I have nothing but respect for our military and their families.
This was a part of the Snowball Express, put on by the Gary Sinise Foundation and American Airlines. They do it every year and have been for a few years now. A very positive activity that has been disrupted by the COVID-19 problems.
This is so beautiful and humbling to know how the children and their remaining parents are treated by the military in America but the response from the general public as well. Thank you for sharing this. It is so uplifting to see respect return to human beings.
Jacksonville air port administrators shut down the airport as my son's body was flown home, going through an arc of water falls. People in the window saluted as his casket was removed from the plane. There is hope for the US.
Thank you for a comment of hope in these days of so much despair. May God bless you and His presence sustain you as you cope with your loss. Your comment brought me to tears.
So terribly sorry for your great loss! Thank you you so much for your son's unselfish & the ultimate sacrifice he made for his fellow Americans like myself! Our countries principles & our freedoms were built & have beendefended & protected by true heros like your son! I am so moved that he was he was honored & given the respect he so rightly earned & deserved! Thank you for your sacrifice as well! I can only imagine since I am a mother of 2 son's that while you are incredibly proud of your son you are extremely heartbroken! God bless you!
This is what patriotism is all about! People all getting together no matter what race they are! This is America land of the free! God Bless these families! Thank you American Airlines.

@wweebb uusseerr you do realize you can be patriotic and not support the wars right? I'm proud of my country for other things and don't support the wars at all ya know? Being proud doesn't mean being brainwashed, it just means recognizing the good and then (hopefully) working on fixing the bad. The U.S. gov has started to pull troops out if the middle east. I'm not happy about what happened, but I'm happy and proud of that decision currently
There is a simple thing we Ukrainians say for our fallen heroes and since we are here in the US Diaspora its appropriate. Slava Heroyam (Glory to the Heroes) and may God keep His hand on the children and protect them.
This is so beautiful, I have tears just streaming down my eyes. I'm thinking of my Father and My Grandfather, and my own Sons as I hear this. Bless those children and the families of the Soldiers that have Fallen. R.I.P.
I have a cousin who’s a US Army colonel, posted at Ft Belvoir, with three tours of duty under his belt. God bless the memory of these brave soldiers for their service ♥️
It's up to US Americans to watch over these children and provide for them whatever they need (e.g., mortgage assistance, free college, etc.) to so that they can reach their full potential and hopefully find peace. It's our obligation.
Sadly the U.S. is losing it (although some of it is for a good reason, we don't have the best track record Rn), but I hope things are doing well in the UK
@@hinklefamily1831 it just seems we have an element of citizens who will stop at nothing and stoop to ever lower levels to rewrite our proud history and paint the uk in a bad way. Sad very sad. To ignore our past is tragic . Hugs from (the once great) britain 🇬🇧

I did an honor flight with my 90 year old father. On the return to San Diego Airport as we got off the plane and there were people clapping and welcoming us back home. As we progressed through the airport the crowds got bigger and bigger. There were military of all branches, boy scouts, girl scouts and all sorts of groups clapping and welcoming us home. By the time we reached the baggage claim area I was totally overcome. It was the most emotional thing that I have ever experience.
While Americans are turning their backs on GOD, HE still remains watching over us. We need HIS presence to once again flood our nation, restore respect and loyalty to the very foundations of this once great country.
As a Desert Storm veteran..." Right in the feels!" is how my wife would say it. I am sharing this with her. Thanks, it restores my faith in this country, just a little in these dark times.
when I returned from Storm/Shield, I spent about $20 in newspapers for my plane load of folks returning home. We were also snuck entire coolers full of cold cokes to enjoy. I made $ but gave the overhead to readiness groups at the command home base. It happened again during my 2005 and 2001 Iraq tour. I asked for a momento shot glass from my bar with a tequila shot that hit me like a right hook to my face. the gesture was appreciated so much.
I have witnessed this scene many times: it’s heartbreaking; I’ve also loaded and offloaded planes with fallen soldiers; to see the family approaching the casket draped with an American flag, I always cry. My dad was a Navy veteran and proudly served.
Thank You Nashville Int'nl Airport, for honoring my children, the way you did. It's nice to see that some people, are still grateful for the price, that must be paid for freedom
You always think of the fallen horeo's who have made America great , but if we are honest before God , how many of us think about the children that have lost a parent , or worst still , both parents ? , i'm ashamed to say , i for one have never thought of the children
I think it was wonderful to honor these family members and the memory of those fallen Heros. I would have much preferred hearing the Anthem and to see the reactions of the family members, bystanders and the public. I felt the video narrative was to long and we didn't get the excirement of the musicians Honor Guard, or the families and friends. Thanks to Ameican Airlines, and airport personnel for bringing this about. This is a memory these children an family members, wll carry for life. God Bless them all and God Bless America.
@tinwoods you really have no idea what's going on do you. both your points are lies and it's not hard to find the evidence which proves they're lies. if people want to hate trump they are allowed to, but stick to the facts.
Only in America. That's what makes America great btw. You keep asking what's so great about the US? Things like this. Unity. Not division. Not hatred for the police, military, military families ffs!
This was so wonderful and heart touching so very sweet that the airline did this. I am so thankful for our soldiers and veterans for all they did and gave for America.
@wweebb uusseerr first off, don't ruin this nice comment. Second, as someone who moved to the U.S. I can tell you they aren't as ignorant as the stereotype says. Almost all schools teach them about the U.S. flaws extensively and no one thinks they are the best. You can be proud if your country and not be the best
@wweebb uusseerr I just said I moved to the US, I know what there education is like, I LIVED AND LEARNED IT. It's not the worst education, it's just one of the worst on a highschool level in the first world. Also, the US literally has some of the Top colleges in the world. The reason highschool education sucks however is because the government doesn't control your education (so we can't be brainwashed) the states do. However, sadly, with states controlling them they also don't get as much funding as if it was run by the federal gov
@wweebb uusseerr dude, I'm someone who lives here and moved here. You literally aren't listening to what I'm saying, schools are state run. In regards to the military which isn't even a part of this petitions all across the US have been brought up to lower military funding. You do realize people can disagree with there government right? Also, what do you mean a US bachelor's is worth nothing? I literally got a bachelor's in psychology here and have been offered jobs across seas many times. You act like every decision the government makes we agree with. Incase this last year has shown anything, it's the dead opposite
Christine S I am 77 years old and a Vietnam vet. I returned home in September 1969 after 12 month tour of duty in Cam Rahn Bay, Vietnam. When I found out I was being sent there I sat down and wrote my wife that (LORD WILLING) I would be coming home in 12 months. I was being sent to a huge supply depot and not the Boonies with the infantry. My father was captured in the Battle of the Bulge and spent the rest of the war in Stalag 4B in Germany. My father weighed about 85 lbs. when they were saved by the UNITED STATES 3RD ARMY. My father was my Hero to me. The Greatest military the world has ever seen. Everyone who serves our military may at any time loose their life while serving. In or out of war. When I came home there were no parades for us and no love except from our friends and relatives. We were taken from the airport at Seattle to a large wear house where we changed out of our military clothes to civilian clothes. This allowed us to blend in with the public. Today I am praying for our President and our First Lady’s speedy recovery. I really do. But that is God given enabling right granted to us through our Constitution. This time maybe you should consider the roll of our military and how important it is for a President to be passionate about our military and country. I am glad you have your hope restored in our country. At this time our leadership hates all our FORMER ALLIES except Turkey and loves Russia and putin. I personally still love them, our allies. Can you speak 🗣 Russian? My partner and I spent about 2 months working with our Russian business partners in 1993 and 1994. Needless to say we were introduced to them through the University of Tulsa where we took a basic Russian course.
@@victorholleymanii6723 Very inspiring story, Victor. I am old enough to remember how the country treated VN vets and I didn't like it at the time. Not sure what you're getting at with our "former allies" comment. We haven't lost any allies but alot of our EU allies are not happy with our President because he calls them out on their BS, and there is much to call out on there. Plus, they are globalists and hate it that Trump is in office because he is not. Thank God!
I CRIED DURING THE WORDS OF THIS VIDEO AND THE SCENES OF WHAT AMERICAN AIRLINES DID FOR THOSE HEARTBROKEN CHILDREN THAT HAD LOST A PARENT IN THE LINE OF DUTY IN ANOTHER COUNTRY. YES, OUR MILITARY (OF WHICH I COME FROM A LONG LINE OF THOSE IN UNIFORM AND AM SO VERY PROUD OF EACH ONE OF THEM, INCLUDING MY PARENTS, MY BROTHER, MY BROTHER-IN-LAW, MY HUSBAND, MY DECEASED UNCLE WHO DIED IN SERVING HIS COUNTRY, MY COUSIN IN THE MARINES, ETC,) DO SERVE OUR COUNTRY, OF WHICH WE SOMETIMES SADLY DO NOT APPRECIATE AND DO NOT HONOR THEM AS WE SHOULD HAVE (VIETNAM VETS WERE SO HORRIBLY TREATED UPON ARRIVAL FROM THEIR DEPLOYMENT) AND SADLY, WHEN THE NATIONAL ANTHEM IS PLAYED OR SUNG, I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE AROUND ME TALKING AND LAUGHING AND I CAN'T HELP BUT STARE AT THEM, WITH A LOOK OF "DO YOU NOT CARE AT ALL FOR WHAT OUR COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON, OUR MILITARY HAS SACRIFICED THEIR BLOOD FOR THOSE SOLDIERS AND MARINES WHO WERE CALLED TO SERVE AND PROTECT OTHERS IN A FOREIGN LAND, JUST BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT OUR MILITARY DOES." MOST OF THE TIME THOSE TALKING OR LAUGHING WILL STOP FOR AWHILE AT LEAST. YES, OUR COUNTRY IS SO DIVIDED, SADLY IT IS SO HEARTBREAKING. BUT I BELIEVE IN THE END, LIGHTNESS WILL PREVAIL AND DARKNESS WILL NEVER WIN. IT IS WRITTEN SO~~~I AM SO PROUD OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE THAT UNDERSTOOD HOW PRECIOUS THOSE WHO GAVE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE AND ALSO THE PROFOUND EFFECT WILL REMAIN WITH THEIR CHILDREN ALWAYS. THIS IS WHEN SOCIAL MEDIA IS SO VERY POSITIVE AND GOOD, WHEN OTHERS REACH OUT TO SHARE SOMETHING SO VERY HEARTWARMING AND OVERWHELMING~~TO SEE THE ENTIRE SCENE IN THE EYES OF THE YOUNG CHILDREN. THANKS AGAIN, AMERICAN AIRLINES FOR THIS WONDERFUL GIFT TO TAKE THE CHILDREN TO DISNEY. THANK YOU TO OUR MEN AND WOMEN THAT GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE SERVICE OF THEIR COUNTRY, FOR THE FREEDOM OF OTHERS. MAY WE NEVER FORGET! SEMPER FI~~
This story warms my heart. Besides my current family. I'm the last one alive from the family of four I grew up in. I lost my mom in 1989 and my dad in1991. My little sister died at age 56 on December 28th, 2017. I also sympathize with those who lost loved ones. It can be painful emotions.
I Can Not express the amount of grattude towards our Military And civilian Police population for what they do And for what they've Done And Sacrificed. My Heart goes Out To All
I’m so glad to live in a country that honors those in the military and the loved ones of those fallen in the name of freedom. In today’s times we often forget about the people who sacrifice so much. My heart goes out to those tots.❤️
God bless each one! Our country is coming back together as we enter a time of great decision. Americans must stand as one to keep our country free. We welcome Gos into our hearts. Praise the Lord!
This is amazing I can't believe there are dislikes of this post. These people died to keep you safe. God Bless our Military we have no idea what they have had to do and see to keep us free. We can't imagine what their families loss is doing to them. I pray for them and am ashamed of the people who disliked this post.
I’m sorry for the children who had lost a parent or relative. It truly showed much respect for the family & the deceased for the entire airport to stop & Stand at attention, saluted. I too salute the family & the deceased everywhere. Elaine M. Smith.
Outstanding!!!! In this day and time--what a wonderful thing for everyone in the airport to come together and sing the National Anthem. Amazing for the Airline sending these kids who have lost a parent in the US Military to Disney World!!! You won't see this on Capitol Hill!!!! God Bless all who were a part of this heart rendering moment!!!!
As a two year Vietnam,it does me good to see Americans show respect to these kids who lost parents in a conflict,when we came home the country didn’t want anything to do with us,thank God for these folks who showed they cared,Got Bless American
There are just not enough words to say thanks to these families that have paid the ultimate price for the freedom we all enjoy. Thanks to all now serving, those who have, and those who will in the future. FLY NAVY!!!
Omg, I have goosebumps. Maybe our world isn't as cruel ad it seems sometimes. There is still love and respect for our fellow man.....and child. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
That is awesome it is one of the best things I,ve heard in a long time I,m Aussie and I,d like to take off my hat to the American service men and women who stood with my dad in defence of Australia during WWII I just watched a history vid of the Battle of the Coral Sea .I,ve tried to find out a decent history of it for years now I know how close we came to being invaded SO THANKYOU BUT THANKYOU ALSO for the responce to those kid,s that is truly awesome God Bless you.!!!!!!!
@@maryann1531 no thank you, for supporting our great military. It means a lot to me. Here's a story what happened to me. I was a United States Marine serving on Okinawa when Saigon fell to the Communist North Vietnamese back in April 1975. Fast forward to September 1975, myself and 3 other Marines were at the LA airport waiting for flights to Camp LeJeune, NC. As we were walking around the airport, of course in our uniforms, 5 civilian guys in their 20s like us, called us "Baby Killers" now this was 5 months after South Vietnam fell to the Communist North. Well being Marines we got in their face. We thought 3 Marines against 5 civilians, no problem. We reminded them we did not kill babies. They backed down and ran off. To be honest that has hurt for years. In the past few years people like you have thanked me for serving OUR great Nation. In my heart I have forgiven those 5 guys for calling me and my Marine buddies "Baby Killers." But to be honest the pain is still there. Now military personnel returning from Vietnam (65-72) faced this a lot more than me. Again thank you so much, one favor, if you see a Vietnam Veteran thank him or her for their service. Stay safe and greetings from Charleston, West Virginia, Semper Fi from an old Marine Sergeant.
God bless these precious children. What a wonderful gesture. The airlines did something so sweet for the children. My all the military men and women that gave their life for our freedom, RIP ❤
THIS IS WHAT MAKES ME EXTREMELY PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN! WE SHOULD ALWAYS HONOR OUR MILITARY AND THEIR FAMILIES FOR SUCH SACRIFICES FOR ALL OF US!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'm Canadian but hearing things like this is why I love Americans.
Stay strong and God bless you all.
As an American I just wanted to say, Thank You neighbor. 😘
Thank you.
The soldiers paid the ultimate price by giving their lives.
Their families pay for the rest of their lives.
Beautiful!

@tinwoods you really have no idea what's going on do you. both your points are lies and it's not hard to find the evidence which proves they're lies. if people want to hate trump they are allowed to, but stick to the facts.
@tinwoods Taken out of context. You need to listen to the whole coversation. Maybe you should listen to Biden calling Military Personnel "Bastards".
God bless The USA and God Bless Presents Trump. Amen
If only all stories were like this after Corona Virus & Dirt showing Elections!!!!!!!!! 👍👍👍👏👏👏😘😘🥰🥰🥰💖💖💖
It is things like this that give me Hope! God Bless The USA! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Only in America.
That's what makes America great btw.
You keep asking what's so great about the US?
Things like this. Unity.
Not division. Not hatred for the police, military, military families ffs!
This is incredible‼️❤️
I have such a deep love for those who serve in our armed forces for us all. Yes they sacrifice for YOU.💕
God bless us each and every one!
2 of my friends died so young they never got a chance to live a good life. Lets not forget those either.
It’s really good to hear a heart warming story.
This was so wonderful and heart touching so very sweet that the airline did this. I am so thankful for our soldiers and veterans for all they did and gave for America.
Love, Gratitude & Respect to All Who Serve & Their Families! 🙏
God bless the USA🇺🇸🇺🇸💪
@wweebb uusseerr first off, don't ruin this nice comment. Second, as someone who moved to the U.S. I can tell you they aren't as ignorant as the stereotype says. Almost all schools teach them about the U.S. flaws extensively and no one thinks they are the best. You can be proud if your country and not be the best
@wweebb uusseerr I just said I moved to the US, I know what there education is like, I LIVED AND LEARNED IT. It's not the worst education, it's just one of the worst on a highschool level in the first world. Also, the US literally has some of the Top colleges in the world. The reason highschool education sucks however is because the government doesn't control your education (so we can't be brainwashed) the states do. However, sadly, with states controlling them they also don't get as much funding as if it was run by the federal gov
@wweebb uusseerr dude, I'm someone who lives here and moved here. You literally aren't listening to what I'm saying, schools are state run. In regards to the military which isn't even a part of this petitions all across the US have been brought up to lower military funding. You do realize people can disagree with there government right? Also, what do you mean a US bachelor's is worth nothing? I literally got a bachelor's in psychology here and have been offered jobs across seas many times. You act like every decision the government makes we agree with. Incase this last year has shown anything, it's the dead opposite
@Southeastern777 awww, thank you! Yeah, I definitely did get trolled. Hope you have a nice day!
Or... For a change... Add god bless every other country as they are all equal...
This gives me hope that there are more people that still love this country than not. Vote in person! Trump 2020
Christine S I am 77 years old and a Vietnam vet. I returned home in September 1969 after 12 month tour of duty in Cam Rahn Bay, Vietnam. When I found out I was being sent there I sat down and wrote my wife that (LORD WILLING) I would be coming home in 12 months. I was being sent to a huge supply depot and not the Boonies with the infantry. My father was captured in the Battle of the Bulge and spent the rest of the war in Stalag 4B in Germany. My father weighed about 85 lbs. when they were saved by the UNITED STATES 3RD ARMY. My father was my Hero to me. The Greatest military the world has ever seen. Everyone who serves our military may at any time loose their life while serving. In or out of war. When I came home there were no parades for us and no love except from our friends and relatives. We were taken from the airport at Seattle to a large wear house where we changed out of our military clothes to civilian clothes. This allowed us to blend in with the public. Today I am praying for our President and our First Lady’s speedy recovery. I really do. But that is God given enabling right granted to us through our Constitution. This time maybe you should consider the roll of our military and how important it is for a President to be passionate about our military and country. I am glad you have your hope restored in our country. At this time our leadership hates all our FORMER ALLIES except Turkey and loves Russia and putin. I personally still love them, our allies. Can you speak 🗣 Russian? My partner and I spent about 2 months working with our Russian business partners in 1993 and 1994. Needless to say we were introduced to them through the University of Tulsa where we took a basic Russian course.
WildAl Mayhem ..........and you?

@@victorholleymanii6723 Very inspiring story, Victor. I am old enough to remember how the country treated VN vets and I didn't like it at the time. Not sure what you're getting at with our "former allies" comment. We haven't lost any allies but alot of our EU allies are not happy with our President because he calls them out on their BS, and there is much to call out on there. Plus, they are globalists and hate it that Trump is in office because he is not. Thank God!
@tinwoods And you collect a $10 check from Soros for every post you make. James 5:3
I CRIED DURING THE WORDS OF THIS VIDEO AND THE SCENES OF WHAT AMERICAN AIRLINES DID FOR THOSE HEARTBROKEN CHILDREN THAT HAD LOST A PARENT IN THE LINE OF DUTY IN ANOTHER COUNTRY. YES, OUR MILITARY (OF WHICH I COME FROM A LONG LINE OF THOSE IN UNIFORM AND AM SO VERY PROUD OF EACH ONE OF THEM, INCLUDING MY PARENTS, MY BROTHER, MY BROTHER-IN-LAW, MY HUSBAND, MY DECEASED UNCLE WHO DIED IN SERVING HIS COUNTRY, MY COUSIN IN THE MARINES, ETC,) DO SERVE OUR COUNTRY, OF WHICH WE SOMETIMES SADLY DO NOT APPRECIATE AND DO NOT HONOR THEM AS WE SHOULD HAVE (VIETNAM VETS WERE SO HORRIBLY TREATED UPON ARRIVAL FROM THEIR DEPLOYMENT) AND SADLY, WHEN THE NATIONAL ANTHEM IS PLAYED OR SUNG, I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE AROUND ME TALKING AND LAUGHING AND I CAN'T HELP BUT STARE AT THEM, WITH A LOOK OF "DO YOU NOT CARE AT ALL FOR WHAT OUR COUNTRY WAS BUILT ON, OUR MILITARY HAS SACRIFICED THEIR BLOOD FOR THOSE SOLDIERS AND MARINES WHO WERE CALLED TO SERVE AND PROTECT OTHERS IN A FOREIGN LAND, JUST BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT OUR MILITARY DOES." MOST OF THE TIME THOSE TALKING OR LAUGHING WILL STOP FOR AWHILE AT LEAST. YES, OUR COUNTRY IS SO DIVIDED, SADLY IT IS SO HEARTBREAKING. BUT I BELIEVE IN THE END, LIGHTNESS WILL PREVAIL AND DARKNESS WILL NEVER WIN. IT IS WRITTEN SO~~~I AM SO PROUD OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE THAT UNDERSTOOD HOW PRECIOUS THOSE WHO GAVE THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE AND ALSO THE PROFOUND EFFECT WILL REMAIN WITH THEIR CHILDREN ALWAYS. THIS IS WHEN SOCIAL MEDIA IS SO VERY POSITIVE AND GOOD, WHEN OTHERS REACH OUT TO SHARE SOMETHING SO VERY HEARTWARMING AND OVERWHELMING~~TO SEE THE ENTIRE SCENE IN THE EYES OF THE YOUNG CHILDREN. THANKS AGAIN, AMERICAN AIRLINES FOR THIS WONDERFUL GIFT TO TAKE THE CHILDREN TO DISNEY. THANK YOU TO OUR MEN AND WOMEN THAT GAVE THEIR LIVES IN THE SERVICE OF THEIR COUNTRY, FOR THE FREEDOM OF OTHERS. MAY WE NEVER FORGET! SEMPER FI~~
This story warms my heart. Besides my current family. I'm the last one alive from the family of four I grew up in. I lost my mom in 1989 and my dad in1991. My little sister died at age 56 on December 28th, 2017. I also sympathize with those who lost loved ones. It can be painful emotions.
We so desperately needed this Video
this is what are real america is..we must not ever lose this..stand up america..we got your back!!
I Can Not express the amount of grattude towards our Military And civilian Police population for what they do And for what they've Done And Sacrificed. My Heart goes Out To All
God bless every one at that airport for the respect and honor they showed our heros, our flag and our country,,
A few moments where human greatness is seen. Miracles happen each day and this is a great example. 😎😎
This is just one reason I’m so PROUD to be an AMERICAN. GOD bless our country and all who serve her!
The Gary Sinese Foundation has done this for 5 years I think.
I’m so glad to live in a country that honors those in the military and the loved ones of those fallen in the name of freedom. In today’s times we often forget about the people who sacrifice so much. My heart goes out to those tots.❤️
God bless each one! Our country is coming back together as we enter a time of great decision. Americans must stand as one to keep our country free. We welcome Gos into our hearts. Praise the Lord!
God Bless America! God Bless our troops & their families, what a beautiful video! thank you for sharing, loved it🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸💖
That's heart warning. God bless America.
Canada here,this is what I love 💕 about Americans we should learn how.
True respect and patriotism! Maybe there is hope for our country. Never take a knee.
This is amazing I can't believe there are dislikes of this post. These people died to keep you safe. God Bless our Military we have no idea what they have had to do and see to keep us free. We can't imagine what their families loss is doing to them. I pray for them and am ashamed of the people who disliked this post.
Thank God there are actually some American's left in our great Country. God bless them all.
We are free because of the brave. Thank you for your service!
GOD bless all these wonderful people. These children have gone thru a horror and deserve all the love that they can handle.
I’m sorry for the children who had lost a parent or relative. It truly showed much respect for the family & the deceased for the entire airport to stop & Stand at attention, saluted. I too salute the family & the deceased everywhere. Elaine M. Smith.
Thank you friend for making this video. Very touching.
God bless America
Warms my heart and brings a tear to my eye!
Heartwarming story! God Bless America and all her patriots!
Any Pro athletes there? Probably not!
If they were there. They would be on their knees.
To all members in all branches.....thank you for your service and God bless you, your loved ones, and our great country.
I am weeping and my heart is HUGE with love for this beautiful story! 🥰👍🏽❤️
Thanks for reminding us of our great people!
Outstanding!!!! In this day and time--what a wonderful thing for everyone in the airport to come together and sing the National Anthem. Amazing for the Airline sending these kids who have lost a parent in the US Military to Disney World!!! You won't see this on Capitol Hill!!!! God Bless all who were a part of this heart rendering moment!!!!
God bless all our soldiers and veterans. God bless America 🇺🇸
As a two year Vietnam,it does me good to see Americans show respect to these kids who lost parents in a conflict,when we came home the country didn’t want anything to do with us,thank God for these folks who showed they cared,Got Bless American
Thankyou so much for this
To the 105 thumbs down, there are other countries accepting new residents. Just saying.
LIFT EVERY VOICE- THE STAR SANGLED BANNER- one Nation under GOD!
There are just not enough words to say thanks to these families that have paid the ultimate price for the freedom we all enjoy. Thanks to all now serving, those who have, and those who will in the future. FLY NAVY!!!
Omg, I have goosebumps. Maybe our world isn't as cruel ad it seems sometimes. There is still love and respect for our fellow man.....and child. 🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️
God 🙏 Bless The USA
Unfortunately he doesn’t. And why not everyone?
God bless those children and military, and God bless America1
Instead of going on about it why didn’t you show us the event?
Exactly! This guy loves the sound of his own voice.
WOW these people really get it. God bless our heros and their families. God bless us all. That airport is badass for doing that.
As a first generation Filipino..I consider myself American then Filipino
As an American this made me chuckle, welcome brother!
@@hinklefamily1831 I am glad I made you chuckle, during these difficult time..God bless
I love that. I am an American that just happens to be black. But an American, first and foremost.
That is one beautiful story thank you so much for posting it
If you have never served you can only partially understand just what this means to the families of these children.
I'm sucker for this,it always gets to me,they loose so much and we don't even know.
Hearing this actually restores my faith in some of humanity
That is awesome it is one of the best things I,ve heard in a long time I,m Aussie and I,d like to take off my hat to the American service men and women who stood with my dad in defence of Australia during WWII I just watched a history vid of the Battle of the Coral Sea .I,ve tried to find out a decent history of it for years now I know how close we came to being invaded SO THANKYOU BUT THANKYOU ALSO for the responce to those kid,s that is truly awesome God Bless you.!!!!!!!
What a 💕 lovely act of kindness! 😷❤️💐🌿
A proud moment in America. I'd serve all over again. GOD BLESS AMERICA.
Thank you for your service! 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
@@maryann1531 no thank you, for supporting our great military. It means a lot to me. Here's a story what happened to me. I was a United States Marine serving on Okinawa when Saigon fell to the Communist North Vietnamese back in April 1975. Fast forward to September 1975, myself and 3 other Marines were at the LA airport waiting for flights to Camp LeJeune, NC. As we were walking around the airport, of course in our uniforms, 5 civilian guys in their 20s like us, called us "Baby Killers" now this was 5 months after South Vietnam fell to the Communist North. Well being Marines we got in their face. We thought 3 Marines against 5 civilians, no problem. We reminded them we did not kill babies. They backed down and ran off. To be honest that has hurt for years. In the past few years people like you have thanked me for serving OUR great Nation. In my heart I have forgiven those 5 guys for calling me and my Marine buddies "Baby Killers." But to be honest the pain is still there. Now military personnel returning from Vietnam (65-72) faced this a lot more than me. Again thank you so much, one favor, if you see a Vietnam Veteran thank him or her for their service. Stay safe and greetings from Charleston, West Virginia, Semper Fi from an old Marine Sergeant.
God bless these precious children. What a wonderful gesture. The airlines did something so sweet for the children. My all the military men and women that gave their life for our freedom, RIP ❤
Im not crying I was cutting onions ok that's my story I'm sticking to it makes a Ft Bragg paratrooper proud
THIS IS WHAT MAKES ME EXTREMELY PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN! WE SHOULD ALWAYS HONOR OUR MILITARY AND THEIR FAMILIES FOR SUCH SACRIFICES FOR ALL OF US!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
