    I cannot understand why only 879 of the 3,329 subscribers watched this sad video of our slain Marines being brought home to their families and loved ones. They made the ultimate sacrifice one can make for their country. Although it's been since 1985, families of these Marines, I want to wish you the greatest sorrow for your loss. No words can describe our feelings of sympathy for you.

      We are not all equals, Let's face reality and facts of life. 4 Marines died and they have no just burials, they have a show in town. 75 000 Salvadoreans died and they didnt even have a decent burial, we didnt even know the names! 75 000 Salvadoreans do not match 4 marines. Who said that we are all equals before the eyes of the Creator?

President Reagan went personally and gave this heros family his condolence. To me I believe this Marines they deserve all the Stars on the flags for their honor, because the Red stripes is the Blood the lost for their life and the Freedom for this Nation, and White stripes is that they are sleeping in peace in Jesus Hands. and as a Veteran I give this Heros a slow and salute and May God comfort this families.

    In 33 years in the military, there were three presidents who knew the meaning of sacrifice. Reagan, Bush Sr. and Bush Jr. Carter, the Clintons and Obama treated us like trained dogs. I've seen enough friends laid to rest after faithful service to a nation. The three gentleman I mentioned knew what a final sacrifice for thier nation was and meant to the families. God bless them.

    I will NEVER EVER serve in the military or any service branch because of things like this if you listen closely what he is saying that we should great wonderful speech by the great humanitarian President Ronald Reagan and quote we are never a good enough to them like we should but that's not possible. President Reagan knew exactly what happened to these men but I understand his situation what he couldn't say anything because he would have been a Target America don't give a fuck about us. Or its military people in my opinion but Ronald Reagan was such patriotic a wonderful man I wish I was old enough but I was a child at 3 years old so I don't know too much about him but as doing research and listen to his speeches he's a good wonderful excellent president I wish we can find good men like him that can run this country. If Ronald Reagan was living I would have voted for him 50 million times. And more God bless you President Reagan.

    I still remember the President Reagan and President Bush’s time, we had strong economy growing to support strong defense capabilities and Americans lived happily by hardworking efforts to take care of families and build our great country America’s greatness together by preserving freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of opportunities recognitions and principles together as one united nation America’s unity tightly together. We all loved our country America 🇺🇸 so much, because we enjoyed freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of opportunities principles and societies so much for our American dreams always. When we have our unity as one nation together, we are one nation together happily together always. When we cherish our country America’s own recognitions and principles together, we will have freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of opportunities as longevity forever. When we have efforts together as one nation America’s greatness, strength and Americans’ happiness altogether, we are a happy, strong, free and equal nation as happy Americans together without hatred, envying, differences, but a great nation of Americans together to love our country America dearly together, support each other for achieving our American dreams by educations, learning opportunities and experiences, hardworking efforts, doing better things as good Americans citizens to love America dearly, take care of families responsibly and build our country America’s greatness happily and diligently to achieve our American dreams and America’s greatness altogether. Only things we will hate is bad behaviors of looting, robberies or murders, because those will destroy our country America’s peaceful in order societies to live and build America peacefully. During critical time, problems are existing or problems are large. Fortunately our hearts are larger and America’s confidence are larger to be able to solve large problems by our larger hearts and confidence altogether as quickly as possible. Let’s bring our learning experiences together quickly for getting right things done quickly together and bring correct policies which fit our country America’s own recognitions and principles together by getting things done quickly and govern bylaws afterwards quickly as one nation together instead of focusing on changing America into unknowns quickly. America’s greatness, strength, happiness and American dreams through America’s kindness nature and own established principles and recognitions together, also through military service Americans’ patriotic spirit to ensure America’s safety, liberty 🗽 and greatness altogether for Americans of all’s appreciations. America’s own established Constitution laws as our country America’s own recognitions and principles together as Americans’ motto for liberty 🗽 to ensure preserving freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of opportunities as Americans’ happiness forever. If we read, learn more Will understand why and how quickly that why America’s shortly over 200 hundred years of time will be able to become the strongest 1st world economy growing, defense capabilities, greatest technologies by unity to pursue American dreams and build our country America’s greatness closely together as well as established America’s world leadership status efforts for peace efforts together as America’s greatness, prosperity, strength, happiness and unity altogether. The former President Reagan’s and the former president Bush’s efforts of governing by Constitution laws worked and achieved. No wonder the former Secretary of State Rice said something like that America 🇺🇸 is not a country of envying or hatred, but a country of the freedoms, entrepreneurship spirit and equality of opportunities to achieve by educations, hardworking efforts and learning together and quickly. Let’s reunite together again and govern by Constitution laws afterwards quickly. So govern bylaws and live bylaws together without hatred toward each other’s accomplishments and mistakes, but bylaws quickly as one nation peacefully together without looting, robberies or murdering crimes quickly. I still remember 43 years ago, I walked on streets or going to work, always greeted each other and said hi, how are you or good morning toward each other without hatred toward each other. Americans of all were being able to live stable life by own hardworking efforts freely and equally, because their policies encouraged entrepreneurship spirit for creating massive jobs for massive middle classed Americans and blue collar Americans for peaceful life by endless educations, learning opportunities and experiences accompanied with own responsibilities of hardworking efforts altogether. Mostly, societies were very safe, because Americans knew obeying laws and criminals knew looting, robberies or killings with consequences as a civilized nation America’s greatness together. Let’s forgive each other this time and sincerely continue accomplishments and change mistakes quickly by getting things done quickly and govern bylaws afterwards together quickly as a civilized nation America’s greatness, strength and happiness as united nation America 🇺🇸 happily again. Only getting things done quickly will easier to win again quickly. If like to win, get things done quickly together, because continued mistakes only help loosing. I guess great leaders will bring our nation reunite together again for getting things done quickly, because Americans’ happiness will help winning. Americans’ happiness will based upon effective good policies for economy growing and defense capabilities strong, peaceful in order societies to live, helping Americans to achieve instead of letting massive unknowns come illegally for unpredictable situations and left Americans for less jobs or become homeless situations by encouraging coming legally instead of illegally, strategies for peace efforts toward peace in the world by protecting America’s own developed intellectual properties, communications for free trade laws, getting along by America’s recognitions and principles as well as avoiding unnecessary 3rd world war or nuclear weapons capabilities of wars by visions and wisdoms, strength and communication abilities altogether, bring best policies for being able to help America made products to compete, because whatever how high minimum wage increased as $17.80/hr in Sunnyvale, still high growing inflations can’t recover Americans’ basic life easily. America’s dollar value is higher than others. Devalue US dollars are not good choices by printing excessively. America’s greatness, strength accompanied with America’s own wisdoms of the principles together, many better choices by best policies will be able to achieve quickly without comparisons. If we can be reunite together again and bring best policies quickly, getting better things done quickly together and govern bylaws afterwards together quickly, nothing can’t be achieved quickly again. God has blessed 🇺🇸 and will continue bless our country America 🇺🇸 always.
