I spent 31 years of my adult life wearing a US Army uniform. I spent the majority of that 31 years living in foreign countries constantly being asked about America's pride and arrogance in flag and country, because, yes, we are fanatic about it. We fight among ourselves, push and shove, and call each other names, and we make stupid decisions a lot of the time, but let some bully from outside the American family push any member of the family, and the wrath of God would descend upon them. I could go on and on...but, don't worry Millie, I'll bet everyone watching this reaction was tearing up also...including this 80 year old man. God bless both of you.
My father spent 3 years in the U.S. navy and another 26 in the U.S. army. He couldn't find a job after college and the navy wanted him to start over as a seaman recruit. The army gave him credit for his 3 years of service during WWII plus 2 years of credit for his 4 years of college. He entered the army as a corporal just in time to be sent to Korea. He also served in Vietnam in 1965-66 and retired out of the Presidio in San Francisco in 1968. I am proud of his service to our country and proud to be his daughter.
I miss you, Dad.
God bless you, sir, for serving our country
SEMPER FI Brother Warrior.

@@msmikkic9738 my dad enlisted in the Marines and was at Iwo Jima and Okinawa then was Reservist who went to Korea then 2tours of Veitnam and a Rifle Range Instructor and MP at Pharris Island. When I turned 17 in 1975 I joined the Marines for 12 years myself.
@@RobertJones-ux6nc oooh-rah!!
May Toby rest in peace,and hopes his family were proud of his life. Sorry for their loss.
i'm an emotional guy when anything that has to do with the Red White and Blue and now it's even harder to listen to this song without shedding a tear for the nation and the man that wrote the song.
I served years before Toby sang this, but, I bet your bottom dollar you say sumthin bad about Toby in front of those troops he preformed for, you'll get a boot in yer ass !
God Rest His Soul. He died here in Oklahoma. 😢😢😢😢
@@georgegarvey7338 a good state to rest peacefully
@@jaminsoncampbell7507 Thank you. I'm sure he would've appreciated it.
He performed 240 USO tours free in war zones. A true patriot.
RIP Toby Keith. He summed up how it is to be a patriotic American. We'll miss you.💔🇺🇸
Millie is amazing. "It's not even my Country, but it is my Country now."
You're DEFINITELY our Honorary American Couple!
Come on over, we are a land of immigrants after all.
Have y'all hears the Alan Jackson song about 9/11 "Where were you?"

Facts
@@benjaminstreet6489 huh?
I always say being American 🇺🇸 is a spirit of freedom and the will to fight and die for it and for liberty and the will to fight and die for it and finally the objective of peace even if it’s tense - regardless of who you are or where you come from if you stand for love, peace liberty and freedom… and the painful sacrifices that people paid and will pay to keep our country and our world safe that’s American. You can take an American out of America but you won’t kill that spirit. ❤️
In 2006, I was in Afghanistan. Toby Keith was supposed to do a concert for us at around 8 pm. He didn't get there until 2 am, he got hung up in Iraq. The place was packed. We all waited for him to come in. It was a great show, all acoustic. He always cared about the troops.
I love him. Many prayers for his cancer recovery 🙏🏻🙏🏻
He enjoys being a celebrity and making money off troops, THATS IT!!
First off troops weren't induced to pay. Be grateful for his love of country *and* for our selfless troops. We owe them a lot.
Secondly, the man's been fighting stomach cancer. Why do you have to be a POS about this good patriot? Just wish Toby well, pray for him if you can, and be over and done with hatefulness toward anyone.
@@chiefswife1212What a hateful person you are. 🤫
@tomk.2601 all he did was profit from troops in wealth and celebrity status, he was told to leave down range and not return because of his inability to perform without being drunk, I was with an outstanding General who was disgusted by his behavior, drunk on stage in front of troops in a country that forbids alcohol, I think we Soldiers who were there know about this idiot.
Toby Kieth did 18 USO tours for our troops beginning in 2002. His love for our Country and her military was unlike anything I have ever seen! Thank you for viewing his video! Millions of Americans are devastated by his passing. But we are also forever grateful for him, his music and his love of this Country. Side note: I’m not sure if you ever came across this, but Toby’s dad indeed served in the army, and he also lost his right eye while in there. God bless.!🇺🇸
He went over there 150 times total.
He’ll be missed greatly!
Yes ! ❤
As an American, I can say we LOVE our country but don’t always agree with our government. Love this song!
You can’t separate country from government, you numskull. The people get the government they deserve. 🫵🏻💩🤡
We don’t agree with this current administration, that’s for sure.
Not much to be proud of really, we have never won a war without allied support and we sold out Ukraine out of fear.
@@Leadbelly. welcome to live in some other country that bleeds constantly to save other people and prop up freedom around the world. Wait.....there isnt one. Well, I am sure you can find somewhere to live.
I'd like to know what country you'd be proud of...@@Leadbelly.
It’s so refreshing to see people who aren’t from America appreciating our culture and not criticizing our patriotism!
🇺🇸th-cam.com/video/w3Jjk-wC09c/w-d-xo.html🇺🇸
Agreed!
I wish we could be as united as we were back then
@@brooke3140 Same. But people have used our patriotism to manipulate us into fighting each other.

They don’t Spend enough on their Forces…. fuck that

@@pastureland_countryhumans8701 And we make fun of their bad teeth and terrible food. Push come to shove, I know they will stand with us shoulder to shoulder with us and I will to stand shoulder to shoulder with them. We really didn't beat them in 1812. It was more a draw than victory.
Amen. Brits are among the best who served in Afghanistan and Iraq. They did a hell of a job in Helmand and helped us in Afghanistan.
I LOVE being an American. I’m proud of my country, even if I’m not always proud of Her leaders ❤️ 🇺🇸
Amen honey!
AMEN
As long as we are 1 we are as powerful as they come. As long as we are more than 1 we will always be fractured 🙏🏻 let's all try our best to be 1 nation under god like we all have pledged many of times. Much love y'all especially to my fellow Americans.
@@chrishoover2681 we’re falling off brother unless we all do something soon. Our leaders here are evil or dumb as fuck

Toby went to Afghanistan and Iraq eleven times with the USO (United Sevicemans Organization) . He did all this on his own time and money. God bless us all. We love and miss you,Toby. From Chickasaw Nation Oklahoma 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I lost my aunt on that day on flight 93 and this song will forever describe how we feel. Proud young southern American🇺🇸 love uk culture btw
I'm so sorry that you lost your aunt, Colby. My sympathy to you
You and your family are EXACTLY why I joined the United States Air Force in 2004. 18 years later and I’m still wearing the uniform because people like you suffered at the hands of certain extremists.
So sorry for your loss of your aunt. I work in EMS and was there that day and for many days after that. We still go there multiple times every summer for visitors. It's only a mile from the home I grew up in. If I could say one thing about the people who live around the area, they came together to help as much as they could. All the people who were there for work show their up most respect.
And my daughter shares the name Colby.
I am so very sorry for your loss, you have my prayers 💖🙏
Sticking with 9/11 theme… Alan Jackson “Where were you when the world stopped turning”
Love it
Thank you for mentioning this one. It was the one I was going to bring up as my other favorite 9/11 response song. Big fan of both Toby Keith and Alan Jackson.
🇺🇸🦅⚓️🗽🪂🦅🇺🇸
was there 😢
"where were you, when they built the ladder to heaven?"
You two are more American patriots than some born here! Hope your trip here is phenomenal.
Hey Millie, it's called empathy and you have so much. People like you are a blessing to all.
This song does apply to you guys - we honor our special relationship, and you have been with us on the battlefield when it matters. From the USA, we thank you. 🙏
My heart grows with pride , I love being an American. I Thank God everyday I get to wake up in our beautiful country 🇺🇸
I concur 🇺🇸❤️👏
Totally agree and thrilled that these two seem to love America more than some that live here. God Bless America and the Beesleys!
Totally agree so proud to be an American
I won the genetic lottery being an American, I couldn't even imagine life outside the us or how different I would be.
Calm down
You should give a listen to Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA" It's one of the best song ever, Alan Jackson's "Remember when" is also a good song.
P.S As of 01 April 2022 y'all are at 105k subscribers. Well done.
Lee Greenwood Home Free collaboration has military in backup vocals, Acapella.
@@CaptainFrost32 It's absolutely beautiful.
I second Lee Greenwood’s God Bless the USA. It’s a great song.
I third the Lee Greenwood recommendation 👍

LOVE IT!!! Yes, yes you are! Anyone who loves our nation and understands the importance of LIBERTY and why we will do ANYTHING to preserve our way of life is an American too. Love you guys! ❤🤍💙
@@cygnusx-3217 Would you? Your writing tone makes it seem that YOU would, just saying.

@@cygnusx-3217 bullied them. Ok tell terrorists groups to leave us alone then and that wouldn't happen. And feel free to leave whenever if you don't like it here in the US. Let's see your freedoms elsewhere.
@@cygnusx-3217 sure the USA isn't perfect, however we are exponentially better then 99 percent of other countries that arrest you for protesting (like Russia) we will continue to strive to be the best. We will only get better with time.
RIP Toby. You left us some wonderful powerful songs.
22 years later and this song still brings tears to my eyes and goosebumps on my arms. God Bless the USA and our allies. ❤🤍💙
Everytime I hear it. 🇺🇸
Makes me not only well up in tears about what was lost that day but listening to the words and music makes me proud every time I hear it for our country and it's service members and the sacrifices that were made by so many for our country as a nation. God Bless the Red, White and Blue 🇺🇸
what a difference a couple of decades makes with the "woke" and cancel culture burning everything and busting up statues, etc.
Absolutely, keep that spirit!we will get through this
Yes, God bless our allies because they have fought the good fight with us.
American by birth and Southern by the grace of GOD, This song still brings a tear to my eye. Lost 2 uncles in service for freedom.
I lost an uncle in world war II that a lot of my family never got to meet
Sorry for your loss brother. I never served myself but military service in my family goes all the way back to the french and indian war i have a lot of respect for our service members. Your family has definitely done their part.
As an American, u do not need to be American to appreciate this song. This song will always ring true. It's played every year since 9/11 we will never forget. Thank you for sharing the appreciation.
Being "cousins from across the pond" helps explain why you might have empathy for things American. Thank you for posting your reactions to this song, one of my favorites.
I love the way you put that
I've noticed there is an abundance of this sort of content for the USA and a lack of it for the UK. It's a shame, since I'd like to see more about our cousins. Its kinda self-centered to have our cousins learning about us while we don't bother to return the gesture. Maybe some channels will pop up to fill the void within a year or two.
@@lucasharvey8990 to be honest there is alot of English history to research. The heptarchy period up to the Norman conquest of 1066. And alot of history afterwards as well. Just look up Beowulf and the Canterbury tales.
And the Bayeux Tapestry
@@zacheryvorse8130 the problem is that most important recent events that involved the UK also involved the USA and everything else is very old and so doesn't have videos or even pictures and most people don't like learning history without modern technology accompanying it.
There are a few great animated channels that compensate for this and cover many topics around Europe, Asia and Africa.
The ones I can think of off the top of my head are-
Epic history TV
Historymarche
Bazbattles
King's and generals
The armchair historian
Drachinifel
The operations room
Yarnhub
Simple history
Extra credits
Oversimplified
These are some of the best but there are also many more.
Bless his heart, this beloved singer has been battling stomach cancer. Toby is such a country music icon and we love him.
73 years old, Vet, and this song still brings a tear to my eye...with pride, not sorrow! And Mrs. Beesley...we in the US and you in the UK share so much history!
Im not a vet but I was born on the 4th of July so I bleed Red White and Blue. Tears of pride in our country and your service is amazing
Thank you sir for your service and sacrifice. Even though I didn't serve in the military I was raised in the Air Force and come from a family with a long history of military as far back as the American Revolution.
It couldn't have been easy to serve when you did. Thank you for your service! 🇺🇲❤🇺🇸
MARKETING TO AMERICANS MADE HIM VERY WEALTHY INDEED
I'm 66, Dtsabled Vet, and it does to me too.
You may have heard, Toby Keith just passed away this morning at the young age of 62. Came here and was to relive this song and wow you guys made it enjoyable! Cheers
😢
Such sad news, never had the chance to listen to him live. One of the best, if not the best country artists of a generation.
I really enjoy these reaction videos from folks in other countries. Americans are the collective descendants of every other nation. So it's entirely appropriate for folks from every other country to share in the celebration of what's great about America. None of what has been accomplished by this great nation would have been possible if not for the strength, courage and capabilities of our ancestors, almost all of which came from someplace else.
Well said.
this comment needs way more likes
Amen
very well said
Perfect
Being an American I've heard this many times in the last 20 years. But in September when I was at a concert and he sang it - still goosebumps, Millie!
Being an American is a state of mind and not necessarily where you were born. Welcome aboard.
I think American today just means acceptance. Everyone is worthy of love. We're trying to vote out the trash.
21 years after that tragedy, I still get emotional. This is my 40th year in uniform, between military & civilian service.
Thank you, for your service!!!
Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service!
I hear you, retired at the end of '20 after 46+ years serving active, reserve and civil service, 39+ wearing a uniform. Last deployment was spent making sure these guys and gals got home on schedule after their deployments. Crazy long hours, chaotic, and the most fulfilling year I spent in uniform.
Thank you for your service, my old man spent 20 years in the Marines.
Nothing like seeing him doing this Live. 20,000 Patriots all singing together in one voice. It's chilling.
Sounds legendary
That must of been awe-inspiring.
How about an ou game with the new tradition, over 80,000
"Made in America" is another American pride song. It paints a true picture of my upbringing. Toby Keith is a patriot!
Being at one of his shows is awesome at the end of this song comes red white and blue streamers they explode down on the crowd
Toby Keith is an arragont tool
Toby’s song American Solider is a great song as well
Yes, he is!
This song always gets me in tears. I remember at my basic training graduation they played Lee Greenwood, God bless the USA and hundreds of new soldiers were in tears. I proudly served my country and if I had it to do all over again I would.
Perfect song to inspire the new troops. Song chokes me up every time just like the star spangled banner.
Thank you for your service. 🇺🇲❤
Thanks for your service 🙏
i saw him in Iraq when he did the tour. just a little more context at the time he made tour it was still a very hot zone. he was one of the only preformers to actually go into the country. for that he has my respect. he also didnt just go to big safe bases.
I still remember the moment the second plain hit the tower and the realization set in that we were actually under attack. It’s still so vivid to me and it seems like it happened yesterday. We watched helplessly through our television sets as 3,000 fellow American’s went down with those towers. We became crazed with a rabid kind of hurt and anger and this song capsulated the sense of vengeance and accountability that we craved back then. I joined the military because of it. It warms my heart to see that contagious sense of patriotism overtake you guys as well and yes, I teared up too! 😢😉
I still remember that morning like yesterday coming down the stairs with my son for his breakfast and pregnant with my daughter. I turned on titan and was the plane fly into the tower. Thought we'll don't want to watch this movie. Started changing channels and realized it wasn't a movie it was real. My doctor even called told me to not watch it because me being upset could send me into labor. But I watched every moment
Thank you for your service. God bless America. 9/11 was a tragic day for our great country. Lost many colleagues.
Loved this. I feel most Americans have lots of patriotism though the news might present differently
Yea I agree
The liberal media is disgusting... Bunch of lying cretins...👎🏼
Definitely. The people of our country are still very patriotic, and it doesn't matter who you support.
100% agree!
I don’t think I’m gonna say “most.” Just a simple majority. Hatred of the flag has grown quite a bit
Toby Keith not only did this song for the troops but, has toured on military bases for years in support of our troops. This just happened to be the videos of his shows including this particular song but, he's toured many years with the USO for military members.
Love me some Toby! American pride at its finest
Over 20 years since 911 and this still gives me pride and chills at the same time. I'm not even a country music fan but I will crank this song up anyday.🇺🇲 thanks for the video Beesleys
RIP TOBY KEITH ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS!!! Even if our government dont appreciate our men and women past And present in our military THE PATRIOTS DO.. 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ WHEN I SEE AN AMERICAN SOLDIER I THANK THEM FOR THEIR SERVICE..
You both are now officially American. Thank you for this video and the respect and appreciation! 🇺🇸
How about Lee Greenwald "Proud to be an American" that song gives me goosebumps everytime. "40 hour week" by Alabama is good too. And if you haven't heard "A country boy can survive" by Hank Williams Jr it's must listen even if you don't react to it.
That's Lee Greenwood not Greenwald 😉
And you should react to him singing it with Home Free and the USAF Singing Sergeants 😍😍😍😍 it was filmed during Quarantine times and is awesome!! You need to introduce Millie to Home Free as well! 😉
@@Trishapurpleprincess
That's What I was going to say... to check out that version!
Its... God Bless The USA! Lee Greenwood w/Homefree
or well, Homefree feat. Lee Greenwood.
Great one!
"If you're reading this" by Tim Mcgraw a real patriotic heartbreaker
If your reading this was played at my Friends sons Funeral .he died fighting in Iraq . James and millie please react to this one .
Makes me cry everytime. Send out a prayer for Toby, he's fighting his own health battles right now...
This came out just before my senior year of high school. I remember pulling up in the parking lot right after it released and a big majority of the student body would have this blasting in their car. I grew up in a small town that had a total population of 26000 when I moved away, and a huge percentage of the student body enlisted in the days and weeks following 9/11.
Same here but in a town of about 1,500. My graduating class had 76 people in it. I know exactly what you mean.
Small town eh? ;) My town had 700. My graduating class was 12.
@@VikingCarter Similar…grew up in a small VT village, with a population just shy of 300. K-12 were all in the same school. There were 7 of us my Senior year.
Even smaller town, graduating class had -250
@@paganbornspiritbear8249 my school was K-12 as well! I never thought I would see a smaller class than mine but I had a friend in college that had FOUR in her class!
You definitely have to do Ray Charles' version of "America the Beautiful." My dad's a Vietnam vet and it's the only patriotic song that makes him cry. Seeing him tear up always starts me bawling because he says that version is the one that most reminds him of the friends he lost in the war and that it's soulful rendition is beautifully appropriate to respect the lives lost. Just a gorgeous version that will more than likely bring tears to your eyes as well.
Has your dad ever watched the video of Ray Charles perform it at a baseball stadium. The ending of seeing Ray's reaction to the crowd was so sweet.
Has your Father every heard "Brothers In Arms" by Dire Straits? It hits Vietnam Vets hard and many have it played at their funerals.
This Ray Charles song for America is legendary. He didn't write the song, that was a long, long time ago. Only the Star Spangled Banner is historically more significant than America The Beautiful. Ray Charles rendition is the ultimate epic version.
I fought in Afghanistan and Iraq with 101st Airborne and this song still hits me. Too all our fallen Brothers. Hooh
My cousin was with 101st Airborne also! He is almost 40 and still has PTSD and nightmares 😪 God bless you. Thank you for your service.
Thank you ❣️
My son was KIA in Afghanistan with the 101st Airborne-Bastogne ❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@joyceturner2929 God bless you. He fought with the best I promise you. Just know .No matter how it ended with that disgraceful pull out by Biden. He didn't die in vain. He died for his brother's to the left and right of him. Thats all its about in the end. We fight for eachother out there and anyone of us would sacrifice ourselves to save another. Screaming eagles never die. 11 BRAVO Forever. ~GOD SAVE THE REPUBLIC ~ 🇺🇸🦅
@Joyce Turner So sorry for your loss. Thank you and your son for both of your sacrifices. God Bless ❤
I’m right there with, couldn’t control the tears. I am so proud to be an American and a daughter of American 🇺🇸 Soldier.
Thank you for this reaction! Saw a homeless veteran huddled up against a gas station this past Sunday and literally started crying in the parking lot. He wasn't out holding a sign begging for money, but it absolutely filled me with rage that my country does its veterans such a dishonor when they put their lives on the line. All the soldiers that died at D-Day, men who still hair downy peach fuzz on their cheeks. The lives people sacrificed so that I can sit here in a country of freedom and for the most part peace. We, as humanity, need to remember to love each other at the end of the day. This song and its message: doesn't matter what country you're from, I'd die to defend and protect you and your children. ♥
I’m 15, and when WWIII breaks out, I’ll be about 22, I’ll be proud to fight for America. And if I die…then I’ll die proudly knowing that I’ve died for the greatest country and people in the history of the world. E pluribus Unum. Out of many one. God bless the United States of America. 🇺🇸
In New York Biden kicked out a building full of retired vets so illegal immigrants have a place to stay. They complained about it because it was to run down and demanded better housing
As many times that I've heard him sing this song, I still get tears in my eyes.
Marketing to Americans made him very wealthy.
Amen. Every time I hear it I tear up. Even tho I am a grown man. I am still a proud American.
He had written this strictly for his tour of the military bases he was visiting. He hadn't planned on recording it until he was inundated with requests from the service folks who wanted to have a recording. Toby wasn't trying to market it.
I find it interesting that several references in this song were of the sort that Americans would understand, but the terrorists might not: "sucker punch," "lit up your world like the Fourth of July," and descriptions of the Statue of Liberty, Uncle Sam, and Mother Freedom. It seems to be written as a rallying song for Americans, and if our enemies don't understand the threats, that's their problem.
Not to mention "we'll put a boot in your a$$, its the American Way" !!!!
It's working I can feel the patriotism flowing into my veins! God bless 'merica
Preach!!
This comment! Hell YESS 🇺🇸
Right now our worst enemies are within. Hard to fight. Hard to know when where and how.
Love this song! You should check out “Where Were You” by Alan Jackson. He wrote it after 9/11. Definitely a tear jerker! Anyway, love the channel! Keep the content coming!
Another GREAT SONG! I LOVE Alan Jackson! Yet another great country singer and proud Amercan!!!!!
The Alan Jackson one is definitely a different feeling but still good, its more reflective? Whereas Toby's gets you hyped up! Lol
I’m not a big fan of country music, but I love patriot music. I have a 4th of July playlist. It includes this song, “Where Were You”, and “Independence Day” by Martina McBride.
@@twinkstar7738 Check out Home Free's Land of the Free ( original song) , their cover of my country tis of thee is gorgeous and their cover of God bless The USA with Lee Greenwood and the USAF Singing Sergeants will blow you away!!
That one gets me every time. I was teaching a class of kindergarten children when someone from the office came to tell me what had happened. And even though we were in the middle of the country watching the skies during recess
Love that you reacted to this. I love this song and it brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. It’s so wonderful and emotional. Thank you again ❤
THIS SONG STILL MAKE ME PROUD TO BE A AMERICAN ... we will not back down.. thanks for yall watching this :) take care and GOD BLESS EVERYONE

HOLD THE LINE!!
I started tearing up remember those days when we came together as one nation, under God. I miss those days. Also, prayers up #TobyKeith while he fights his own battle with stomach cancer 🙏🏻😊🇺🇸❤️
As a 25 year navy vet, this song still hits me....
Toby Keith is indeed a patriot and I’ve never seen a musician express so much love and respect to those who serve. Saw him live once and after each song, he raised his drink in a toast “This goes to those who serve day and night, whether here or overseas, but more importantly, to those who are no longer with us.” Every. Song. He repeated that toast, as if he dedicated each song and performance to them.
Got to see him performance this live back in September 2021, and even from way up in the stands, it was probably the best version I've heard to date.
It was also the first time I heard "Old School" which has become a new favorite since then.
not sure if you heard he has been battling Stomach Cancer.
Hello Beesley's from Indianapolis Indiana. Another patriotic song that is SUPER great is..."Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagle Flies", by, Aaron Tippin. I've sern him in concert 13 times and never got tired of hearing it. It's a goosebumps song Millie! Thanks for playing Toby too.
Indianapolis indiana here too 🥰
@@mar-see-uh_not_marsha great minds think alike 😊
@@lansorbet5882 hi Lan, you're not too far! Glad to see more of us from Indiana ☺
Me too i thought for sure I was the only indy here lol
From Fort Wayne, Indiana
I always enjoy your reactions, but I really needed to hear this song again. I remember the pride and defiance generated when the song came out. Here we are 21 years later and it's hard sometimes to realize that our own politicians are sending this country (USA) down the drain. What can you do? I know the people of the U.S. are just as patriotic and positive as they once seemed, but the world situation just seems to be piling up on itself. If you believe in prayer, please pray for the world situation and hang on to hope.
I couldn't have said it better. God Bless!
Let's go Brandon.....right out the door!!!!
@@BabsisHere Amen, Barbara!!
The leftist politicians that are making money off of the destruction of this country are all treasonous.. so many people died for this country for us to have freedom and they're flushing it right down the drain for power and money. LET'S GO BRANDON/FJB
This was exactly what I was thinking while watching this. We are being destroyed from within😭😭😭
I'm 58 and I STILL tear up when I hear our AMAZING ANTHEM, NEVER FORGET THAT OUR FREEDOM DOESN'T COME FREE!🇺🇲🗽🇺🇲🗽🇺🇲🗽🇺🇲🗽🇺🇲🗽🇺🇲🙏❤❤❤
I've been waiting on Millie's reaction to this one. 😀
It would be cool to see y'all both react to Alan Jackson's "Where were you (when the world stopped turning)"
Love this song
Good idea
Please watch this Alan Jackson song! It is beautiful.
This is my first time watching one of your videos. It just popped up in my feed. As a result, I am crying right along with you. My Daddy is a retired Marine and retired Captain of the National Guard. I remember when this song came out. I burnt it on a CD and decorated it with red and blue stars and gave it to him on Veterans Day. I am so proud to be an American and proud of my Daddy for serving in Vietnam, and Operations Desert Shield & Storm. I am also SO grateful to all the other men and women who selflessly dedicate their lives to ensure we remain free. As well as all of those that paid the ultimate sacrifice. I think it's awesome that yall did this video and took the time to appreciate it! God bless you and God bless the USA!! 🇺🇸
" My daddy served in the army where he lost his right eye but he flew a flag out in our yard until the day that he died....." Gets me every time.
I heard it was a training accident but still, it was during service to USA
And now Toby has died
Army wife and Marine and Army mom when this came out...it stills gives me goosebumps every single time I hear it..20 years later. Never gave a thought to other people from other countries hearing it...thank you for appreciating not only our pride, but toby
Army wide army daughter. My baby leaves for the marine boot camp this December
To all our brothers in arms from my Country and our Allies, it's been a very long 20 yrs but there're still things to do.
Semper Fi!
Semper fi
@Jonas2024-ru5fh ; The most important thing at this moment is for You to concentrate in Your studies. Try not to waste energy thinking in probable future global conflicts. I think that Mr. Putin's not that dumb to pick a fight with NATO or our Country untill he's totally suicidal.
For now enjoy life and don't worry about things that may or may not happen.
Take care. Take one day at a time.
@@gruntusmc8922 My studies are great actually! However, Mr. Putin isn’t the real enemy. China is the greatest threat to my and my country’s existence. So thank you, but I will use my energy to be prepared when WWIII does break out. And yes, I will be proud to fight and die for my country. This war is inevitable. I’m not a pessimist, but the world has a history of going to war with itself. China seeks power, and the U.S. is in the way. I have a blessed life, and I am ready to fight for my country to keep it. Thanks though. As I love history, and I love our country, I invest my time in political events on the global scale, WWIII is just another theatre of my studies. It would be foolish of you to not study the possibility of WWIII. Do you think society has evolved since 1945? It hasn’t. Governments can still commit genocide, and war crimes are still committed. I want to be ready just in case this does occur. Turning a blind eye to war doesn’t make its possibilities go away. Hey man, I appreciate your concern for my personal life, but I’m managing just fine. I’m a straight A student, who can think for himself, and come to logical conclusions. Take care buddy. Just remember that freedom is NOT free. This is something I’m willing to fight and die for if necessary. God bless the United States of America. E Pluribus Unum. Out of many, one.
As a Army Vet, I want to thank you for your support of the military. It means a lot to me. I have seen to many people who hate the military and automatically have a bad opinion of me when they find out that I served. I means a lot to know that the sacrifice that one of my friends made is appreciated. Thank you both. If you are ever in Tennessee, you will be welcome in my home.
Thank you so much for your service and sacrifice…you have not been forgotten. God Bless You and God Bless America!
❤️🇺🇸🦅🙋♀️
Thank you for your service. Without the military and law enforcement there would be no freedom and without freedom, there would be no civilization.
I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AND THANK YOU ❤️❤️❤️❤️
@andy smedley Respect to you as well sir.. Thank you very much for your service 🇺🇸
From an American, Thank You for standing proudly with us. 💕 we love our Brits!!!! Cheers!
Toby Keith is one of my very favorites of all times. It's 2023 now and I still love this patriotic song. 9/11 was a horrible day and time for America. The response of our friends around the world was so amazing. You dear sweet kids are precious and your Queen was so gracious . When she had her Royal band play America's National Anthem it was truly heart touching. I'm sorry for the loss of your Queen. God bless
Yep, NEVER FORGET.
9/11 I was watching the news wondering why the world hated us Americans and were celebrating our tragedy. Then I saw the changing of the guard and the fact that the music had never been altered before. Our Star Spangled Banner began and I collapsed into a chair and began to sob. I then remembered that we aren't alone. Her Majesty reminded me of that.
You guys should react to American soldier by Toby Keith
All these years later and this song still physically affects me with tears, goose bumps and chokes me up. My youngest daughter gave up her first year of college to become a Marine shortly after 9-11. She came home with rods in her lower back and a pride in her country as great as mine. She got her Masters degree after serving and a few years later she had a great family and job, still does.
Thanks to the UK and our other allies during that time and apologies for the current clown in chief destroying everything in the USA and wherever else he can!
Love your comment.❤
RIP Toby Keith. You were a beacon for us in a very dark time.
this is an amazing Toby Keith song but for a different side of him I'd love to see you two react to *Red Solo Cup* by Toby Keith. It's a hoot!
I love this song, but it makes me tear up every single time. I'm a U.S. Army vet, and while I got out in Dec. of 1998, a lot of my friends stayed in and re-enlisted. Quite a few went overseas after 9/11. And one of my dearest friends didn't come back, leaving a wife and a 6-month-old baby boy. It's hard being a soldier, but sometimes it's harder being a soldier's family.
God bless your friend, his family, and ALL service members keeping this Country safe!
We thank you, and salute you for your bravery and service to this great Country!! (let's go Brandon!)
I had to try to explain what happened on 9/11 to my 7 yr old son. Hard to explain what I was still trying to comprehend myself. 10 years later, he asked for my signature to join the Army. It festered in his mind all those years and he felt he needed to step up. All I can say about being a military family is it's one heck of an emotional roller coaster! Thank you for your service.
Based on your screen name, I'm guessing you're a red head. From a fellow red head and U.S. army brat, thank you so much for your service to our beloved country.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice Sir. You’re truly an American Hero!
God Bless You and God Bless the USA!
@@jeanettestephens1573 It's ma'am (no worries), and it was my sincere honor to serve.
Here's a little back story for you regarding this song. When Toby was asked about it he replied that when 9/11 happened he wrote down his feelings at the time and was also thinking about how his father might have felt. This how the song came about. He performed it for the military members but never had any intentions of actually releasing it publicly as it was very personal to him. A commander at one of the bases told him he had to release it as it was needed. Because of this Toby released it. Ironically when our 4th of July rolled around he was supposed to perform at one of the celebrations that was sponsored by a major TV network here. A well know news anchor who was hosting the show (who interestingly enough was Canadian) asked Toby to remove the line "with a boot up your a$$" from the song. Toby refused and the network rescinded their invitation for him to perform.
What stupid network made THAT mistake?
@@julieenslow5915 that would be ABC and Peter Jennings, iirc
@@beaglescout4718
That explains it, thank you.
Good for Toby!!
My Son joined the Army after 911. We lost him on Afghanistan in 2012. This song really hits home.😢
I’m so sorry for your lost. My husband was serving in the Army and I was in the Navy. My husband was KIA in 2004 in Iraq, I was notified while I was out to sea. I was offered to go home on leave, but I turned it down to stay in the fight with my brothers and sisters. It was the best way to honor my husband.
@@jcfc8197 Sorry for your loss! Thank you for your service!
Coming from a vet who did 18 months in Afghanistan it's awesome to see that you have embraced the culture and have the respect that you do. Thank you.
THANK YOU SIR.. MY SON HAS 22 1/2 YRS IN THE ARMY/NATIONAL GUARD. PREY FOR OUR TROOPS AND COUNTRY.... AMEN..
Thanks you for your service, May God bless and keep you safe.
What division were you in man?
@@FlyhighSkyKing 160th here out of fort campbell KY spent 6 years in but caught a bullet now i shit in a bag but damn do i wish i could still be there putting boot to ass for my country
@@jld12er mad respect for anyone previously or currently serving, I'm planning on jumping into the army as soon as I get out of high school and get into the 101st airborne.
If you haven't already, do a reaction video to Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA". Definitely a goose bump inducing song!!
Love you guys and your reaction to this as well as your love for the USA. Millie your tears were perfect! I cry every time I hear this and that’s hundreds of times since its release.
React to the very patriotic song God Bless the USA - Home Free featuring Lee Greenwood (original singer) and the US Air Force Band♥️🤍💙
So true, what other country has a dream? The American dream is real and we are so blessed to be born under the red white and blue!
I had a good friend of mine years ago who was from Britian and he LOVED America. He was really big on history and understood what happened when hundreds of thousands of GI's from the USA went across the English Channel on D Day. The Brits and Americans started out fighting each other about that Independence thing but NOW are the strongest allies on Earth. We have got your back guys and appreciate your friendship more than we can say.
Tony Keith does many military tours, at home in the USA as well as overseas. He does them for FREE because he's a very patriotic man. I've seen him in concert myself, and he is a force! God bless him!
Millie you have the heart of an American. I cry every time too. My dad was a Marine, my uncles scattered in army and marines; cousins in all branches. Friends in several branches. And you are so right- we are one human race fight good vs evil! So we are all connected and when someone messes with one of us it really should be that we all respond.
We’ll miss you Toby Keith, you’re in a better place now. This song will always go down as one of the best patriotic songs to ever exist. I know you’re looking down on our beautiful country from heaven, love you buddy 🇺🇸❤
Awesome reaction! Often in America we are criticized for being a patriot. It's refreshing to see you get emotional and appreciate our pride!
Y'all should react to "Kentucky All State Choir - National Anthem 2019" it's really good. Well worth your time.
I think they already have.
@@pacmanc8103 For reals? Damn, I haven't seen it.
I still remember Toby Keith singing this at Camp Liberty, Baghdad in 2008. It was amazing to hear live.
Dmacc, wow!
Wow! I can’t imagine! What an experience! 🥰
Here after losing this icon. RIP Toby Keith 😢
"American Soldier" is also a good patriotic song by Toby Keith.
YES! You guys should totally listen to this song!!!
Absolutely
Another great song along this line of patriotism is Alan Jackson's "where were you when the world stopped turning! Oh, fyi, Milly, bring lots of handkerchiefs😊
This is a tough one for me.
@@aleut69 oh, believe me, I understand that. I lose it on that one and even on Alan's remember when🥴 oh yeah, when I hear Brookes and Dunn's, Believe? I 😭 like a baby. Every time ☺️
During my first deployment in 2003, we would play this song at least 3 or 4 times a week. It just gave you that boost after long days.
Thank you sir for your service. God bless and keep you! 🇺🇸🙏
Same here lmao little Iraqi kids absolutely loved the song 😂😂😂
Unfortunately Toby Keith passed away on the 6th of February. This is an amazing song.
As an American veteran, it warms my heart to see you two react the way you have to this song. Cherish and support your military for their sacrifices in the past and the future have given all of us the one thing that so many take for granted.. Freedom..
Yep, support your vets no matter what freedom loving country you are from because the veterans and their families sacrifice a lot for their countries especially being away from families, but they do it for love of country and freedom.
Thank you so much for your service and sacrifice Sir. May God bless you and America too!
Thank you for your service.
I was in Korea serving in the U.S Army and this song hits in a different way. Thank you for this guys
Thank you for your service 💗 When were you there?
THANK YOU, for your service and your sacrifice. GOD BLESS YOU!
@@PJnTEXAS1 thank you for your acknowledgement
@@cindy844 I was there from December 2000- to November 2001, so just under 2 years. Camp Humphreys.
Thanks so much for your service! God bless you.
"American Soldier" by Toby Keith is absolutely his best patriotic song... so powerful.
I don't know if you know but Toby Keith died recently of stomach cancer 😪
Loved this reaction. Y'all never cease to do a good one. I'll never, ever forget the first time I heard this song. I was a junior in high school when 9/11 happened. Watched it all unfold in front of my eyes on live TV. It was like a bad nightmare. I think I can speak for almost every American during this time that we were still feeling anger, sadness, shock, confusion etc., for months and months after 9/11. There was a large group of us just hanging out one warm day in our small hometown in North Georgia when this song played on our small town station for the 1st time. Want to talk about pumped up!! Especially the part about "we'll stick a boot in your a ss. It's the American way." We lost it. Hated those days, but loved them, too. It made us stop and really think about what mattered in life. We're unfortunately so far from that now.
I cry everytime I hear that song! It makes me so proud of my country!
We may fight among ourselves but, we will stand together if we're attacked. 🥰
Sounds like you are quoting Charlie Daniels. Good quote.
@@CaptainFrost32 if I did quote Charlie Daniels, it was an accident. Lol!
I've loved this powerful song since I first heard it. After all this time, it still gives me goosebumps and brings tears to my eyes. Thanks, Toby, and hope you are feeling much better.🇺🇸
