    I am a US veteran. I lost my family and drank and drugged my pains away. I spent a time living out of my truck. I o got drunk one night and flipped out. I got arrested and a similar thing happened to me. The cop that arrested me had been in country and my unit relived his so he could go home. He spent the whole night with me in the ER as he didn't take me to jail. He then took me to the VA to get help. I'm 100% disabled now. That covers everything from Dr visits, my meds help finding shelter and lots of other things. I now have a van and a dog to keep me company as most my friends left me and good for that as they were the ones I dinking and getting high with. I got a job helping people now and really got into history and have a side gig with a museum. Thank you to that officer that cared about me enough to not send me away. I'm not a criminal, just a victim of circumstance that just needed help and a direction to go. Thank you for reacting to this song. Much love

    Glad you reacted to this. I get my medical care through the Veterans Administration and they do their best with what they're given or most do. It's the lack of funds and personnel that hurts.

      Find out how they lie to us about federal money. What they do is PRETEND there is not enough money so the corruption scammers can then con us about taking it over and improving it. The scam is that when they take over they can get basically unlimited government money. That is because privatizers can bill the government ANY AMOUNT, providing massive exec salaries and insanely high profits. There is no real oversight since this was devised as a scam to enrich the people who knew about government money and would lie to us about all of it. Wall Street firms invest, knowing that profits are guaranteed by government money. They all know that federal money is NOT "our tax dollars", it can be issued IN ANY AMOUNT for anything that is physically possible!
      So when you see how the scam works, you also see why BOTH parties lie us into wars, vote for war money, fight AGAINST real healthcare for all (they want to keep the PRIVATIZED - not private - healthcare insurance system that enriches the corrupt while NOT giving us proper healthcare), etc. Our war companies, detention centers, many prisons, healthcare insurance, parts of Medicare and the Post Office, and more, are all privatized. The liars call them "private" to dupe us more, because they know there is public backlash against privatization.
      Here are a few econ experts of the many who try to inform the public about how the people in power are lying to dupe us "peasants". See how EASILY we can actually be providing affordable housing, healthcare for all, excellent social support systems, good schools, good mental health care, great things like a Job Guarantee which those in power have BEEN HIDING from us, etc.

    "Wrong side of heaven, righteous side of hell" is the argument Vets have in their minds... you sign up to serve, do what is right, and sometimes you don't, or the things you end up doing maybe you question. It's a balance. Are you on the righteous side for what you did out there, or is what you did.. not? I've always considered it a play on emotions and thought process's, it differs from Veteran to Veteran.

    You have vets from 2 wars, three police actions and countless skirmishes. Here in the US and the brother's in arms in the UK... Many go, not understanding what their country is asking of them. The words on the page stating that 'I swear that I will abide by my duty up to and including forfeiting my life in the defense of my country'... are just words. I'll come home. I'll be fine. And they sign. Then they train, then they learn to think like a solider to be in your Military Mind. You go out and do things no human should ever have to do to another human. You see things you can't unsee. You come home and are told to get on with life. To get over it. You have the person you married use your military service against you to take your kids from you in their best interest. You have dreams and flashbacks. You hear a sound... a car backfiring, fireworks, some stupid video game, and you're back in it. People look at you like you crazy. They don'y understand. You are called a War Monger at colleges, and have your application turned down because of your views. Politicians call you unstable because you had the desire to serve. You are told you can't own a weapon because you know how to use it and are unsafe. That my dear is what this song is about. How can we do what we have to do and be on the Wrong side of Heaven? My unit was the 3rd of the 18th... I was a Soldier... may God have Mercy on my Soul!

    A couple years ago I stopped at a store, bought myself a bottle of water and bag of beef jerky. A half mile down the road I passed a disheveled man holding a cardboard sign (don't recall what the sign said), but he had on a military style jacket. I turned around to go give him my bottle of water and jerky.
    I don't tell this story to brag or be "virtuous" because it was the best I could do for the man. I tell it because he begged me to get out of the truck so he could thank and hug me. Said he spent time in Iraq.
    It still chokes me up today wishing I could have done more for him. I'll never forget that man and his face.

    Iraq vet here 08-09 Sadr city Iraq. “Wrong side of heaven” to me seems to be the dichotomy between fighting for what’s right (your country, other nations and peoples) sacrificing your life for others a “heavenly pursuit” that requires the soldier to do something so violent and evil on its own, (killing others). In other words doing something bad to achieve an ultimate good. I believe this to be his view of himself in societal perspective. The righteous side of hell” I believe to be from an internal view of himself and that struggle. Basically the same dichotomy but in reverse. His struggle or “hell that he has to go through for doing such bad things to help achieve a “righteous goal” or for “righteous” reasons. In other words doing bad to achieve an ultimate good is putting him in a state of hell internally.

Conflict does infect our brains after, which explains the % of suicide among vets. Most days are good, but some are hard to deal with. (Signed - still here and working on it)

    Gitana, I'm so glad you reacted to this song. As many have said, it means a lot to those of us who have served, especially given the issues this song raises: PTSD, mental health, divorce, homelessness. These things are things, I feel, those of who served, and are serving, deal with more than those who don't.
    The sad truth is, these issues don't get enough attention -- especially for those who sacrifice for others, and some of whom make the ultimate sacrifice, so others can live free.
    All I can say is, on behalf of all vets and active-duty, reserve, and inactive service-members: Thank you. Thank you, so much. What you have done is very much greatly appreciated. 💗
    Note: Since you asked, what this song is about is the struggle of a soldier or Marine, in trying to do what they know to be right, and when their service is over, having to deal with other issues because of it. It is something I would not wish on my worst enemy, and it is a hard road to hoe. The "Heaven or Hell," "God and the Devil" metaphor is really a metaphor for "good vs evil," and the soldier or Marine trying to come to terms with, as I said, what they know to be right, while others call them evil, cruel, inhumane, unjust, or outright immoral. Because of these things, a lot of veterans feel that those in the civilian population will never understand the sacrifices of those who do serve, and those that have served.

    I decided to see your reaction to this video/song after watching your reaction to Josh Turner. I spent 9 years in the US Air Force. I joined in 2002, and was sent to Italy as a 19 year old in 2003. I was deployed to Iraq and landed there on my 20th birthday in Feb 2004 in Baghdad. I remember mortars, artillery, and return fire. I was lucky enough to never be involved in a gunfight, but the mortars still haunt me to this day. Wrong side of heaven....I was willing to fight for what I believed in and for the people I left behind, even if it meant crossing lines I never thought possible. Righteous side of hell.....I knew my fight and my brothers and sisters fight was just, even when others didn't, but I would never let it get too far out of control. I remember getting back from Iraq, to Italy, watching families reunite....and then standing there, by myself as a 20 year old, with noone around to welcome me back like my coworkers had. I also remember A1C Holt that never made it back either. I remember the mortars. I remember everything. FFDP does a damn good job of bringing our message to the front with songs like this and others, and not just ours, but also their own message of their own struggles.

    Just some random thoughts,
    I was an Army Airborne Ranger. Fought in 2 different parts of the world.
    I never u understood 'weakness' for the longest time; "Suck it up and drive on!"
    Is the motto.
    Your family tells you that you are different, your not the same person. Civilians seem so weak and un-disciplined. It takes awhile
    to conform to societal 'norms' but you feel like you are always suppressing a big part
    of you.
    You learn to deal with the thoughts and dreams; Better they die for their cause than I die for mine, right?
    As Stan Counts commented earlier, done to many bad things to go to heaven but not evil enough for hell...
    I never achieved all I wanted to and should have. Thought about mercenary work, French foreign legion etc. but could not could not square that with God...but does it matter?
    Thank you to all the brothers in arms for your service to our country & very Un-grateful countries around the globe.

    I was fortunate enough to find the help I needed. I am still in the Marines and almost slipped into a deep depression to that very point. It's hard to understand the feeling of taking someone's life even in the time of war it still doesn't sit well. Understanding that it was them or me it was still someone's brother father husband son that I took the lives of. It's still hard to think of that. Way too many veterans can't get the help I did. People look at the signs of these vets asking for help and don't just roll up your windows or walk by them. These men and women have given up their freedom for you and for us still serving. Sometimes all it takes is someone to listen to them

    At the end the guy in the suit is the Jacoby guy from earlier in the video that got shot and the guy sitting down is the guy that grabbed him and got him up when they were in that firefight. He's saying it's Jacoby you saved my life brother. Its heavy to see them when they were in the military versus what happens to them when they get back to civilian life. Its true and that makes it so much more upsetting.

My dad was in the first gulf war and served 3 tours and when he came back he wasn't the same man i remembered but he was one of the lucky ones and managed to get the help he needed and with time patience and understanding he was nearly himself again after 3 years of therapy. We need more help for our vets end of story.

    I joined the US Air Force with the hopes that I could rectify many of the things that I wished I could have. What I later understood is that I was the only one who could change that. However, I learned honor and dignity for what I did. This is not a metaphor. When you do things, due to orders, that are unspeakable, you hold them in. It's why so many veterans suffer from PTS and wind up unable to live in a normal society. I was in a group of all races, religion and belief. I came home to something different. One thing I will say, the more talent you posses, the less chance you have to be a "normal" human being. I have a loving family that has not wavered through my struggles and have helped me immensely , I am blessed. Though i have struggled with addiction. depression and other social issues, I am still here and proud to have served. I know I did things that I can only hope God will forgive me for, but if I go to hell I hope I'm in a place where I can be held in regard for the things I did. I will leave it in His hands.

    To any veteran who thinks they can go it alone, dealing with whatever issue(s) they are dealing with:
    I say to you, please...get help if you need it. If you think you are alone, fighting your battles, know that _you are not alone, and you never were._ I ask you: Were you alone in-country? During the firefight when you got hit? During the ambush where your Humvee got hit by an IED? No, you were not -- you had your brothers and sisters in uniform to watch your six. And now, you still do, and you always have had, people to watch your six. You do not fight your battles alone. And even when you feel like you do, or that you are, remember this:
    "When you can't run, you walk. When you can't walk, you crawl. And when you can't crawl...when you can't do that...you find someone to carry you." ~ From "Firefly" episode 11, "The Message"

    As a veteran it is shameful how we treat veterans in this country. Like disposable toys that have outlived their usefulness. People here like to "thank" us for our service. It is a largely meaningless gesture that makes them feel good and move on while many of us struggle horrifically with the lasting effects of what our country asked of us. I don't blame them for it, it such a systemic issue that all they can really do is say thanks.
