This is the best video I've seen on YouTube, ever. It was created by a fifteen year old girl.

It made me cry.

Re: American Heroes

I don't miss it, but I would do it again! Whether for or against war, It helps to know folks at home are behind the troops. If you get an opportunity, show you care.

I lost it when I saw all the people at the funerals and they were given the flag folded.

Re: American Heroes

Those who will never serve can say what they want about the war, the President, or whoever. In a larger sense, their opinions remain irrelevant. What will never change is that Soldiers, sailors, Marines, and airmen will go where we send them to do what we need them to do. They alone will face nightmares that the rest of their fellow citizens will never even contemplate facing. They will make sacrifices that could never be asked of those whose idea of sacrifice is missing a Sunday football game. They will lose their comrades, and parts of themselves. No one made them sign up for this: they chose it. They chose it because they love the rest of us, and because they chose to serve in harm's way, we can all make the choices we want.

Honor them.

Thank you!!!

It gets old hearing someone (90%) whine on campus about war this, president that, American killers this. Being that I am 29 and older than about 95% of these students of *higher* education, I just shake my head and hope that someday they will learn...

Maybe for some, age will change their minds. But more than likely, they'll pass their mindless whining down to their kids, who will be defended by our kids.

The same thing happened with the Vietnam generation. Those who hated both the war and the troops whined and complained about both, and passed their whining bitterness down to the next generation. Those who served passed a legacy of service down to their kids. Still today, you have the doers and the whiners. It happened with the last generation's war, and it will happen in the next generation's war, too.

Lieutenant Colonel Randolph C. White, U.S. Army, put it this way: "For my money, there are two kinds of men in this world; men of action, and all others."

Re: American Heroes

With a Brother serving in the 1st Ranger BN, the funeral footage is hard to watch. He's in SERE school for three weeks right now, but will eventually head to the sandbox for a 5th time.

Thank you to everyone in this thread who served or is serving our country.
