Why is it that bad things happen to the nicest people, but the scum of the earth seem to go on for ever? My respects to you young man, for what you are and what you have done.
Paul Lennon I have often thought the same as you. Why such nasty folks seem to go on ect. BUT I believe in God & that one day we will be judged for what we've done in our life times. Those 'nastys' I dout will have to pay high heating bills.
I was 36 years old when I was targeted and shot by terrorists in Northern Ireland, I am now 59 and although I have had battles in my life, I take my hat of to you Andy. You are a brave young man who would put to shame those of us who complain at the least little upset in our lives. Your courage leaves me amazed. God Bless both you and the country you gave so much to the U.S.A. God be good to this Hero.
IRA or UVF? I lived in Northern Ireland, and as a Frenchman working there in Prod and Cath schools, it was quite complicated. Got threatened by IRA punks once because of university research on the Troubles. Had friends from both "sides" - had a lot of problems with local police, got arrested by Green Berets searching for weapons contraband - was with my French car - got disrespected for being French. I was there in 1998-99, one week after the Omagh bombing. My family begged me not to go. I do understand how people can feel living up there when born catholic en rages half the population or vice-versa. I had heard and seen so many things there that I still keep a vivid memory of harshness, defiance and fear from Ulster. My first shock was the last barb wires in the border with the Republic, I thought I was back to cold era Germany. i wish this US military found a cure. I know the sacrifices they make to become an honor guard. Best wishes from France.
MrBrendy58 , God bless you sir for your service! Here from Texas, U.S.A., that was an awesome comment! I served in the Navy onboard the U.S S Enterprise back in 1979, we traveled the high seas to keep this old world a better place.I am 57 years old wishing you, and your family well! God bless to everyone across the great pond!
The troubles were complicated. For many british soldiers they probably thought that we were terrorist scumbags but for us we were just trying to achieve freedom from the tyranny because there was still a lot of discrimination against catholics.
I don't respect what the government forces the soldiers to do, and not all soldiers are good people, but I think we should give respect to those that fight and die like heroes
They are given the Badge when they become a Guard after finishing training. It's theirs forever. UNLESS they do something to disrespect the Guard or the service. I hope he manages to overcome this small obstacle in his life. Blue Sky's and Safe Journeys son and thank you for serving.
We are not God's counselor or his adviser. We have no authority to say what or where any of us will be or what we will be doing. We are only the creation. We do not speak for God. Ephesians 2:8-9 8 For by God's grace are we saved through faith; not by works, (or being a firefighter or law enforcement or a hero or a veteran or actor or News reporter/anchor or a soul singer or killed by a terrorist or a sports hero or a fashion designer or a rock star or body builder or a writer or cooking show host or walk into a room and lite up a room with their smile or a pioneer or a super pop star or bounty hunter or race car driver or country music singer or being modest or a Disney star actor or making people laugh or making people happy or a war hero or dying for your country or never killing anyone) 9 it is the free gift of God, not that anyone can boast of their salvation." Eternity will not be about any of us or what we have done. It will all be about Jesus Christ who died on a cross to save us from our sins. We all deserve hell and then the lake of fire that Burns with Sulphur and fire on judgement day. Thank you Jesus.

An amazing young man from an amazing infantry unit. The nation salutes and respects you for your duty, courage, and resolve. You and your wife are in the thoughts and prayers of millions of grateful citizens.
Okay the fact that he was chosen for this duty alone is rare and amazingly rare alone. The fact that he got that accomplishment and an even rarer disease. He himself is a rarity. Much respect for him!
3toisyou too bad that’s just made up nonsense. Pretty convenient that god can’t be blamed for anything and he uses the devil as a scapegoat. Nothing in the Bible makes any real sense. Like why would god create the devil if he knew that he’d eventually fall from heaven? See... that’s retarded in my opinion. God’s supposed to be able to see all of our futures? Why did he create humans as born sinners when he could have taken sin away or never even created it in the first place? If there is a god, it’s an overall unfair god.

I am from England, and an ex-service man. My late wife and I twice visited Washington, and on both occasions visited Arlington to honor the Tomb of the Unknown Warrior. We were in awe of the dignity and reverence displayed by these soldiers. God bless you Andy, and your wife.

God bless you! - All the commenters to this video who have served in the military of the USA. There are no words to say how much I respect and honor your contribution - which is to stand up and defend this country in peace and in war. - All the commenters to this video who have served in the military of any country which is a neighbor, a friend or an ally of the USA.

Jeremiah 17:5 New Living Translation 5 This is what the Lord says: “Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord.
I’m 60 I’ve got a condition that’s going to take me in the next couple of years but I’ve had a very good, very interesting life. A doctor also told me I would be dead before forty because of my alcoholism, I’ve been blessed with twenty five years sobriety along with a wonderful bounty. So I’m ok with the time I have left. When I see a beautiful young couple like this though, with such a cloud hanging over them it seems so unjust. Their parents must be bursting with pride for the wonderful young people they’ve brought up and I can see why they allowed their daughter to marry so young. What a fantastic CV he brings to the table so young, a man with a perfect sense of duty and discipline. Amazing people and I wish them a marriage every bit as happy as my own, I really can’t wish them more except to say I hope they go on the celebrate at least their diamond anniversary.
I'm a CO, of thee "conscientious" sort, and am experiencing deep empathy for this young man and such respect for his courage and down to earth liveliness. You Go for sure, Andy.
Thank you for your service and keep fighting. Your teaching everyone how to fight.Courage and determination, the will to survive. I stand with you. I'm a Cancer survivor. I'll be praying for you and your family. Love the support your wife is giving you. God bless you.
That’s sad how happy he was finally being an Unknown Soldier Sentinel only for fate to give him a disease and ruin his dreams. Despite all that he still seems happy and has obtained a new job.
This man is a national treasure. He has the strength and courage to face the unknown daily and yet remain thankful and humble. His wife is absolutely a wonderful soul.
SPEEDYNOOB You can’t abuse people based off of their ideologies, rightly so. Whether religion, or morals, people should believe what they want without repercussions. But if they act illegally you can certainly imprison him.
It is unfortunate to find people who disrespect our country, but it is also a sign of greatness. It is the proof that we may have diverse thoughts and opinions on almost any matter whatsoever without being punished. It is a sign of freedom.
Young man thank you for all you have done to protect and houner the unknown soldier..i truly hope you learn to live a good life ..to watch you in your work and how very very smart you look is an awesome thing for me to see thank you sir all the very best from Neil here in England..i suluite you all .
I've never seen anyone older than 110 or so. "for the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. "WE" all deserve hell and then the lake of fire on judgement day that burns with sulphur and fire. thank you Jesus.

How did the entire universe and everyone and everything in it fall into place perfectly and everything has its own purpose perfectly?
Don't ever forget the honor the service paid you, selecting you for this post. Don't ever forget the honor you paid the fallen and the present for standing your post. You are the best of us, you are the honorable among us.
Jeremiah 17:5 New Living Translation 5 This is what the Lord says: “Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans, who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord.
I have been to the Tomb twice and it is a very sacred place. The guards there are nearly fanatical about what they do and rightly so. I don't know if they have any ammo in their rifles but that is a very real bayonet affixed to the end. I hope that some dumbass never tries to punk out one of those guards. It could be messy to say the least.
The guns they have are fully functional but are unloaded. Although the officer that does the changing of the guard as well as the inspection of the rifle is armed with a loaded sidearm.
the fierce determination to their duty, no matter if their weapons are loaded or not, should be enough to dissuade any interlopers. I will not cry for any man or woman that disrespects the tomb
There is footage around of people - kids of course - in attendance at the guard changing who whisper or talk. Those soldiers do NOT f around. They will crisply stop, turn to the crowd, snap their boots, stare straight ahead, and in a Marine boot camp drill instructors voice advise the crowd that the tomb is a sacred place and to remain silent. Those kids probably had to change their underwear and never said a word for a week lol
There is actually a video on RUclips of a guard accidentally dropping the rifle and the bayonet stabs through the others foot and you can see the blood. I believe the video is called “Changing Of the Guard Mishap”
@@memerman9421 it depends on the state. Some states allow 1 person of age (18) and one at least 16 without even a parents signature. My mom was 15 when she married my dad. He was 18. But her mom had to sign papers to okay it. Funny story, my parents went to see a movie that was rated R and they weren't going to let my mom have a ticket. They said she needed a parent to eatch with her. So my dad went and got their marriage certificate to show he could allow her to watch the movie. Lol!
This is truly a man to look up to his positive attitude is nothing short if amazing I hope and pray this young couple have a long and successful life together

Most of us can say we served our country. But, nothing like what you are going through (besides the ones injured severely in wars). That is such an honor to be a guard of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. God bless you my brother.

My grandson's immediate bad reaction to MMR vax caused me to search for knowledgeable answers! Like sausage making & Politics, that knowledge can make sick! As the father of Real medicine's Art (not one size fits all pharma sales) Hippocrates admonished "Do no harm" and let god's (unpatentable) Food & Herbs be thy medicine!
I find this video feb 21 coincidence? I think not!

Thank yous for your service to:
- The young guard in this video: your bravery, your sense of humor and your wife are all beautiful sir. God bless you!
- All the commenters to this video who have served in the military of the USA. There are no words to say how much I respect and honor your contribution - which is to stand up and defend this country in peace and in war.
- All the commenters to this video who have served in the military of any country which is a neighbor, a friend or an ally of the USA. Together we are strong as we need to be, even while praying our military strength is not what is needed. Let's keep it that way - strong and together.

5 This is what the Lord says:
“Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans,
who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord.
I hope he gets a Full Recovery. With a long happy life ahead of him.
I’m 60 I’ve got a condition that’s going to take me in the next couple of years but I’ve had a very good, very interesting life. A doctor also told me I would be dead before forty because of my alcoholism, I’ve been blessed with twenty five years sobriety along with a wonderful bounty. So I’m ok with the time I have left.
When I see a beautiful young couple like this though, with such a cloud hanging over them it seems so unjust. Their parents must be bursting with pride for the wonderful young people they’ve brought up and I can see why they allowed their daughter to marry so young. What a fantastic CV he brings to the table so young, a man with a perfect sense of duty and discipline. Amazing people and I wish them a marriage every bit as happy as my own, I really can’t wish them more except to say I hope they go on the celebrate at least their diamond anniversary.
He continues the good fight, and they are very happy together.
I wish you the best too.

Watching the Sentinels guard the tomb and seeing the changing of the guard is coolest thing ever, change my mind

Amarty yo I’m just joking. But like for real... they don’t have internet there???
That’s sad how happy he was finally being an Unknown Soldier Sentinel only for fate to give him a disease and ruin his dreams. Despite all that he still seems happy and has obtained a new job.
This man is a national treasure. He has the strength and courage to face the unknown daily and yet remain thankful and humble. His wife is absolutely a wonderful soul.
May God bless this young man, and give him strength to fight and endure.
Tragic, a patriotic American (hard to find these days) who's only desire is to serve. Sad. Prayers and best wishes to Andy!

Yes it is sad that some people disrespect this beautiful country of ours
It is unfortunate to find people who disrespect our country, but it is also a sign of greatness. It is the proof that we may have diverse thoughts and opinions on almost any matter whatsoever without being punished. It is a sign of freedom.

Jeremiah 17:5 New Living Translation
5 This is what the Lord says:
“Cursed are those who put their trust in mere humans,
who rely on human strength and turn their hearts away from the Lord.
I have been to the Tomb twice and it is a very sacred place. The guards there are nearly fanatical about what they do and rightly so. I don't know if they have any ammo in their rifles but that is a very real bayonet affixed to the end. I hope that some dumbass never tries to punk out one of those guards. It could be messy to say the least.
The guns they have are fully functional but are unloaded. Although the officer that does the changing of the guard as well as the inspection of the rifle is armed with a loaded sidearm.
Timothy Hudson id say they carry magazines with them or unload them before the change. Guarantee they load them at night.
the fierce determination to their duty, no matter if their weapons are loaded or not, should be enough to dissuade any interlopers. I will not cry for any man or woman that disrespects the tomb
There is footage around of people - kids of course - in attendance at the guard changing who whisper or talk. Those soldiers do NOT f around. They will crisply stop, turn to the crowd, snap their boots, stare straight ahead, and in a Marine boot camp drill instructors voice advise the crowd that the tomb is a sacred place and to remain silent. Those kids probably had to change their underwear and never said a word for a week lol
There is actually a video on RUclips of a guard accidentally dropping the rifle and the bayonet stabs through the others foot and you can see the blood. I believe the video is called “Changing Of the Guard Mishap”
Thank you so much for your selfless service to our country! I will be keeping you in my prayers. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
The fact that they are guarding a tomb for so long and dedicated to it, melts my heart. It is super absurd that people disrespect this.
wait. he was 20 and she was 17?!
@@landbefortime6898 Probably from michigan. Age of consent here is 16. Pretty sure it's like that in a few other states, too
@@memerman9421 it depends on the state. Some states allow 1 person of age (18) and one at least 16 without even a parents signature.
My mom was 15 when she married my dad. He was 18. But her mom had to sign papers to okay it. Funny story, my parents went to see a movie that was rated R and they weren't going to let my mom have a ticket. They said she needed a parent to eatch with her. So my dad went and got their marriage certificate to show he could allow her to watch the movie. Lol!
@@audreymai2773 Well, ik it depends on the state, I just dont know the other states AOC, other than here in Michigan
This is truly a man to look up to his positive attitude is nothing short if amazing I hope and pray this young couple have a long and successful life together

Wow! Never heard of this before. Two years of fighting cancer now seems trivial compared to Andy's. I wish you a miracle and hope God will grant you that.

Most of us can say we served our country. But, nothing like what you are going through (besides the ones injured severely in wars). That is such an honor to be a guard of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. God bless you my brother.
Good luck mate. Thank you for your service. All the best from an Australian ally.

I hope the military helps this poor guy out with disability support or something. I mean he's a freaking tomb guard after all.
He's deceased as of about 7 months ago. & few know the truth of this situation. & the truth is infuriating.
