This song hits me hard every time. I am a disabled veteran, 15 Years in the Army spent a few tours in Iraq and was there in Iraq in 2003 during that initial push. I suffer from PTSD, Anxiety and depression and cant work anymore. Its sad to see how Veterans are treated now a days. My father is also a veteran of the Army and did time in Vietnam. He also suffers from PTSD and has Parkinson's due to his subjection to the Agent Orange they used over there. Vietnam vets got treated even worse than the rest of us have. We loose 22 veterans a day to suicide. That's 22 to many. I was almost one of them. I cant enjoy the one most favorite thing I loved as a kid, Fireworks on fourth of July. Lots of others are even worse. If your a Vet and are struggling please get help some how some way. Talk to someone, anyone. You are worth more than you know. Thank you to all fellow veterans for your service.
Thank you for not leaving us, brother. No matter how hard things may seem some days know there are people who care and believe in you. It's okay to cry, it's okay to crawl, it's okay to hurt, but we can never give up.
Honestly I don't like FFDP, most of their songs are really cringe and their lyrics are super tryhard tough guy type shit. But this song has such a good message and the lyrics really tugg on the heart strings, even coming from someone who isn't a veteran.
I'm married to a Navy vet with severe PTSD. The pain we go through every day that was inflicted 25 to 30 years ago is devastating. I don't think anyone who hasn't been there can comprehend war. He's 100% disabled from the PTSD. This is the real cost of your freedom. The real menace of war. The young man in orange spoke the truth. There is never any truth in it. Thank you for this review. The video, and song is incredibly powerful for my family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I'm one of the lucky ones that made it out w/o PTSD, but I've seen it. I always wish I could do more for my fellow veterans that are suffering.
I take care of older gentlemen in assisted care facilities. One man couldn't even read his newspaper, because his body naturally sways back and forth. That man witnessed uncountable death, and probably caused a good bit himself. Coming back home knowing that there's a mother in the country you left getting that message that her son is dead and you were the one to do it. You've got proud family members and you couldn't feel dirtier. It's a strange limbo they're left in.
It must be awful dealing with that and you most likely don't get any help from the government so medical bills keep adding up. He went to war for your government NOT your freedom and your government just forgot about him, it's a disgrace. The Gulf War was between Iraq and Kuwait, how did that threaten your freedom in any way? Americans are brainwashed into thinking everyone is trying to take your freedom. When 911 happened was your freedom threatened in any way? Sorry for the mini rant with what you're going through but Americans need to realise that your freedom is very rarely threatened. Nobody says Freedom more than Americans
Wow, I caught this pretty quick. As a disabled vet from the 1st gulf war, thank you guys. There’s more pride in this country then they want u to believe. Thank you guys for the video. B
Thank you for your service. And yes, there is a ton of pride in this country and our flag. And so much appreciation for our vets who we need to be taking better care of.
Thank you for your service! My family and I are forever indebted to you! ❤🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸 You are spot on, Pride for our country pulses through many Americans veins! ❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
Thanks for acknowledging these young gentlemen. I love their reactions. They're always so full of energy. It's people like these young men who will save our precious republic. I can tell they have it in them to be great. I, too, am a disabled vet from the first gulf war, and id like to say thank you for your service as well. Keep on keeping on, brother...
Always brother. I lost my fiance, who was homeless for 3 years and an alcoholic. Navy Hospital Corpsman. He got his life together but the PTSD never went away. I have nothing but love and respect for you guys. You are not forgotten ❤️
@@navybaby7371 They get degraded and disrespected because Ivan Moody is an absolute dick to people. The only good thing they've done is their military support and that's it.
Not just FFDP, a lot of metal groups do a lot for the struggling groups, vets, people dealing with suicidal issues and depression and all ignorant people say is metal is angry devil music. Yes some IS just dark but there's so many metal bands that base their music off the Bible and make music to help people that are mentally struggling deal
As a vet this song always makes my eyes water. I have 3 teammates who have taken their own lives. The saying "war is hell" has deep roots. I really enjoy watching you young men and the reactions you have to different things. You provide me hope that not all our youth are idiots. You gentlemen are thoughtful, and I enjoy listening to you discuss the many topics you watch.
@@dropkick9517 For me, its just so jam packed with emotion (especially with it along with the video) it's very easy to get overwhelmed and start shedding a tear or few.
Disabled Vet here, and everytime I see this video I tear up and thank God that I was fortunate enough to get the help that I needed. Returning to Civilian life, especially after being in Combat can be one of the hardest transitions a person will ever have to make. A lot of us don't know how to socialize anymore, or we can't hold jobs or we feel alone because nobody understands us. For every Veteran out there... It is a Hard road but please reach out to the VA and get yourself taken care of. I know there are a lot of horror stories... But there are some truly amazing people out there that will go above and beyond to get you the help that you need and deserve.
Thank u so much for reacting to this song!!!! My husband is currently serving in the US Army....22 yrs and counting....and suffers from PTSD from all the times as he has been deployed. It's hard to see him go thru it. Everyone thinks the government takes care of vets and active duty war fights but you would shocked how horrible things can be sometimes. Healthcare is horrible, the perks of being in the service is dwelling, and some weeks he makes less than min. wage with all the hrs he puts in. But neither one of us regrets him serving. He defends us and I'm so proud of him
That's why I have never registered at Veterans Affairs. I would have to drive 100 miles for treatment. Screw that, I can pay myself and be seen faster locally!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, for your husbands & your family’s service. Some people don’t realize it’s the entire family that also serves its country and makes sacrifices. The way we treat vets is disgusting. I’m 50 and after all these years I can’t believe we still haven’t changed that!
My husband and I are both vets, and our son is in the Army now. Getting Veteran Assistance is very difficult. Not everyone can get it, and it honestly isn't much. My husband's PTSD is so bad that it was hard watching our son join, but we are still so proud of him. Thank you for your support and for making this video!
This song hits home. I’ve been in the military for 15 years now and although it’s a little different in Canada it’s not far off. We have the same battles for our vets as well.
And from someone from a non military family I’d like to say thank you to both your families. Without you I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the freedoms I do Much love from the U.K.
WOW That was hard to watch! but we have to. Most of us are aware of these issues but not until we see it physically does it become a reality. Thankyou soldiers
These dudes have done awesome things for the vets, they came out to iraq a few times to do shows and mingle with the troops, big moral boost for us at the time..
My Uncle fought front lines of Vietnam and carried with him a lifetime of injuries, illnesses, and emotional/mental effects. The stories he told me, and the way the veterans of that war were treated when they arrived back home was sickening. Sadly, it's only gotten moderately better in younger generations. My boyfriend is a veteran and has lost 3 friends to suicide after leaving the service. We have to do better! Thanks for reacting to this guys!
Agree completely. My dad was in Vietnam and did the same things you mentioned. He had nightmares that would make him not want to sleep for days. He never really talked about it unless he drank too much, it broke my heart hearing what they went through and continued to when they came home. He recently passed in October, I have his flag & medals framed in my house ❤
@@windog551 Thank you ♥️ Yes unfortunately it definitely is very tragic and sad. He was still an amazing dad despite those things, he worked hard every day, sometimes 14-18 hr days and go right back the next day and he did physical labor. Our veterans deserve so much more ♥️
@@HeatherTerry84 @Heather Terry Your father has my thanks for his service, sorry he had to go through all that and may he rest in peace. It's awkward thanking Vets sometimes, since I know some Vets hate being thanked for "Just doing their Duty/Job", so I usually just thank them once then/or just treat them like I would anyone else. My dad was 1st ID in the late 90's with a few sandbox tours in the 2000's, I know he also did some NATO peacekeeping in Kosovo and maybe Bosnia. Being in the Balkans during the 90's conflicts(If you know, you know)its quite possible he saw some stuff, but he walked out before I was a toddler and the few times we talk he's never brought it up. All he's said is don't join the military, which I'd wanted to do when younger. Between the family connection and growing up next to a major Army base most of my life, I grew up to be a pretty patriotic person. Some of the things that've been done to Veterans, and the stuff they've had to go through for no reason is criminal IMO. Might write a second, longer comment on that. I know people care, but that doesn't mean they wanna hear a rant on it. If I do I'll start it with a (2). Anyways, have a good day and hope things are going alright.
I went to a treatment center in 1991 with gulf war vets and Vietnam vets. One guy said he was picking up his luggage off of a carousel at an airport and got spit on cuz he was uniform. He hit the guy and went to jail for 30 days. Not a good homecoming for him. I feel for your boyfriend. I’m just a normal idiot but last year I tried medical marijuana. I don’t get the giggles or goofy shit, it just slows down the marble going around in our heads. You’re not alone now, or ever!!!!!!
I've been with an infantry man in the Army for over 20 years who struggles with PTSD. Anyone that can help the veterans needs to. They need help, not judgment. Much love to you guys.
As a disabled veteran of the Iraq war, this song always hits hard for me. Remember All Gave Some, Some Gave All! RIP to my brothers we lost with the 2-8 Cavalry in 06-08 and 2009-2010
LOVE FFDP!! Saw them in Sturgis a few years back....tens of thousands there, motorcycles everywhere, the veterans honored. It was such a moment. Motorcycles drove down the middle of the crowd as they split open like the red sea....it was powerful.
Hey young brothers, glad you found this one. Great reaction and eye opening for those that don't know. We are currently losing 22-24 vets a day, to their own hands. While the wars might be over, the battle rages on for many. I wish you well and thank you for reacting to this video and helping enlighten others.
A lot of my family has served, and I love this band the first time I watched this it was out of curiosity, and it made me cry. I still get misty eyed when u watch it
Yeah... they served together in the video... and at the end he says "You know me" to calm him down and then "You saved my life brother" ... that song makes me tear up every time.
To all the veterans who read this. I know it’s a cliche thing to say, but truly, thank you thank you so much for what you do and have done! We as people of this country, must continue to be strong and you all make that possible with your sacrifices. God bless you all 🥹🙏🏻🇺🇸❤ Edit: I just wanna say how humbled I am that you are all responding with your military branch and years/info. So cool! 🥹💕
I served in the United States Army Infantry for 5 years and I fought in Iraq from 2004-2005. I can't speak for other Veterans, but I myself hates it when a civilian tries to salute me or calls me a hero. Just stick with the line where you say "thank you for your service." Even when someone thanks me for my service I don't always know how to answer them because I was doing my job and getting paid to do it from American tax payers. When I went to fight in Iraq I wasn't doing it for the money or because I thought it was right. I was fighting there because I was ordered to and I was fighting for the men in my unit or as I would call them "my brothers."
But you signed up knowing the consequences. The majority won't because they don't have the balls to put their life on the line but expect others to. For that you are being thanked, paid or not.
I was raised with the knowledge that only those who have seen service or are in service are allowed to salute even if I'm the relative of a veteran the only time I will do so is a a funeral or if I too become a brother thank you for your service and I wish you success in your struggles
My father is a Vietnam veteran. He responds with "Thank you for being an American worth fighting for." I think it's because for years after coming home, Vietnam vets were spit on, cussed out, called baby killers, etc. There was so much hatred towards them. To him it's refreshing, even all these years later, to hear someone thank him instead of hurling insults toward him. Just something to think about.
I submitted all my paperwork the day I got out received a denial letter within 3 months, and it took me 5 1/2 years of appeals to finally get my disability rating. Some people worse off than me can't wait that long without help. This song gives me chills every time I hear it.
I saw them in concert before they were huge. They were amazing. And yes, they did go and play for the troops many times in Iraq and Kuwait and hang out with them too. 🙌❤️
Dont have the resources..... giving it to illegals. HELTHCARE/ HOUSING/HEALTHCARE. Government says fk the veteran especially the homeless ones. THEY DONT VOTE..... SAD
Currently in the ARMY 6 years and counting! Wrong Side of Heaven and Gone Away were the first songs I heard from 5FDP and I fell in love with the rest of their stuff! Great band.
I cry every time I see this video. Y’all’s reaction alone meant the world to me!!! I am VERY MUCH involved in belong our VETS! I do in home senior nursing and many of my clients served and I thank them every-time I see them!!!! God Bless y’all!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅
I am a disabled combat veteran. Thank you for reacting and understanding. Everyone needs to see this video. These statistics. Thank you to all who have ever done it and those that will.
If i'm not mistaken I believe all or most of the band are ex military. they have multiple songs dedicated to the struggle of being a soldier. highly highly recommend "Far From Home" 5FDP is right next to nickelback on being hated for no reason by many because apparently its cool. however 9/10 songs are bangers in my humble opinion.
I just seen Five Finger Death Punch live for the first time and they are great at saluting out veterans past and present. I've been a huge fan of them for a long time. I recommend watching some of their live performances and if what Ivan Moody does and says regarding our veterans gives me goosebumps everytime. He's a genuinely good dude who truly cares about our vets and the fight against cancer. God bless our veterans!
I'm so glad you guys got to hear this song. I was married to a military member for 16 years & saw the struggles he went through. Unfortunately also lost 2 very close military friends to suicide. Our vets deserve better. Thank you for watching this and bringing attention to it ❤️
Thank y’all so much for showing this!!!! TVP is a great organization! There are many!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Many people see y’all! Y’all can make a difference. PLEASE help our Veterans!!!! Thank you so much for showing so much respect!!!! My dad is retired Navy Seal! He’s an amazing man! Helps anyone he can!!! Soooo many go without when they gave all!!!!! Much LOVE to all of you!!!!
I know a marine who lost both his legs to an IED. He parked his truck in a handicapped spot and was reaching behind his seat to get his wheelchair out. Someone gave him a dirty look and made comments about him parking in a handicapped spot, even though he had a tag and was uses a wheelchair. This behavior is unacceptable. To anyone who reads this, and you served, THANK YOU!
Honey i live in a military city & i see homeless vet's everywhere. It's heartbreaking. My husband suffers from PTSD. It's horrible what he goes through on a daily basis.
As a military member who has been through similar situations this song really hits home for me. I love this song but it's hard for me to here it cuz it brings back past memories.
Ty for reviewing this video please do anything for a vet. Even just asking how they are doing and listening to them for a few minutes means a lot. !IGY6 is I Got Your Back is a strong motto many veterans believe in. I Served from 1988-2013 with several Trips down range. Stay real.
Thanks guys! I enjoy watching you listen to all kinds of music! "There but for the grace of God go I" I was homeless living in my old pickup truck after I got out my first tour of 5 years active. I was living near the beach so it wasn't all bad. Things were hard for a while, I eventually found low paying work and went back into the reserves to help pay for school and other expenses. Eventually got my BSBA (MIS) at a cheap state school, I got a job in tech after that for many years and eventually retired out of the Army Reserves, still working in tech. Turned 60 recently and started collecting my retirement pay - not much but it helps. I started Tricare this year, not sure how that is going to work out, it seems not too many doctors offices take the insurance, initial appointments are 3 months out, but it's cheaper than my work insurance. I had good times and bad times, but I'm proud of myself for sticking it out and finishing up my 21 years no matter how much I didn't like most of it. I'm kind of a rebel, and it was hard to go along to get along a lot of times and conform where I had to to stay out of trouble. I'm not sure I would do it again, especially in this environment, but it can be a way to a better life - for some, that is if they don't get you killed. I lost many friends along the way. RIP. "There for the grace of god go I"
Sounds like a rough road and not one that many people could have taken and come out the other side, happy for ya. Couple of friends I went to school with are Marines and they both have told me how they hate it when people do the whole "thank you for your service" thing, said it makes them feel super awkward lol so I'll just say I'm glad to know of another one that made it home. Best of luck with your retirement, hope ya enjoy it
I am truly glad that you persevered. I'm not a vet, but I know so many of them. My sister, at least 3 nephews, a brother in law, and numerous classmates and acquaintances from work. This song always resonates with me. The statistics had me crying at the end after I thought I had cried myself out. I love this band.
This video always makes me cry, it's so powerful and I love how they're bringing to light one of the many problems our country is dealing with and how we're failing those that sacrificed their lives so that we can live freely. Great song and video. ❤️ Under and Over It is another great well known song by them.
I remember recommending this song to you guys. Not sure if it was my comment that brought you to it, but thanks for reacting nonetheless. FFDP not only made a beautiful song, but they used their voice to speak for our Vets. I'm a psychotherapist who works with Vets with PTSD; it's a real issue that sometimes the civilian world doesn't remember. Thanks again for showing respect for our former and current servicemembers.
Im so glad you all are allowing us to see your growth. It was obvious by the title alone, there was skepticism in listening to this song. As a female Veteran and number 23...FFDP and a lot of other rock song lyrics resonate. Keep up the good work. P.S. dobt start another organization go out ad do some volunteering with established groups.
I want to say thank you to you guys for having respect for the veterans I myself my family and all of us. It’s hard because no one does have faith in the vets anymore. No one wants to help anymore and it sucks but thank you for the love and support gentleman.
Finally, this is my favorite band, I'm glad you guys are finally listening to them and I hope you do a lot more of them. A little bit off, the bleeding, I apologize, coming down, I remember everything, are just a few.
You need to checkout there song Far From Home, its my favorite by them really tugs at the heartstrings while making you want to head bang just like this song.
Thank you for reacting to this video, and appreciating people’s sacrifice. It affects their entire families, their friends, and everyone that loves them. Keep it up.
My Mother spent 8yrs in the Marines during Vietnam and almost killed herself because she fought the government for 22yrs to get the disability she deserved from her service which caused her to be partially paralyzed. When my Mother finally came home a group of "hippies" were waiting at the bus stop and saw my Mother's uniform, my Grandparent's has just used most of their saving to buy her a nice heavy winter coat. These "hippies" proceeded to spit at her, kick her, call her a baby killer and dumped a 5 gallon bucket of pig's blood over her head drenching her to the bone. In that moment she decided to dedicate the rest of her life to make sure she would move heaven and earth alone if need be to get her brother's and sister's who had none and nothing help. I feel privileged to have seen with my own eyes the true price of war. Everything from ppl suffering, forgotten, in agony dying from agent orange. I've talked to POW's held in bamboo cages and the thing's that were done to them. I saw a widow fight 25yrs to clear her "AWOL" husband's name and come back to bury the only physical remain left of his body a 3 inch piece of jaw bone. The names carved on the black granite wall are the names of 58,000 men who our country knowingly left behind. I love my country, but it's the Politicians who pull the strings and make back door deals that I hate.
This is probably my favorite reaction so far. It's a pretty personal one to me for reasons and I'm glad to see the video had the effect on you that the band wanted. A lot of people don't know how bad it is for veterans and it's getting worse, so I'm happy to see it getting out there. Thanks guys for helping with that 😊
This track and the video are our wake up call to all vets that we as civilians have to do better by them. They fought for us, bled for us, died for us, just so we can act like assholes. We owe them and we have failed them. We have to do better by them. We as a people and a nation need to get them the help they need. Phycological for ptsd/ shell shock and reintegration into civilian life,job placement and training to let them move on with their lives. And most importantly, let them know we have their backs as they had ours and they are never alone. Never forget
I have no shame in admitting that I was in tears the 1st time I saw this video. Not much ever bothers me, but I get choked up everytime I've seen this video. Thank you vets for your service and sacrifice.
I've asked you guys on several videos to watch this and you did and I can't thank you enough. I am a disabled veteran I can hardly walk and suffer from ptsd , anxiety, depression and agoraphobia but....watching your videos help me through all this. So thank you guys so much and God bless you
I'm so proud at how much ya'll have grown in heart over the last 10 months or so. Thanks for reacting to this. It's important we keep these channels open. People need to truly understand what their sacrifices have gained us as American citizens. And there have been many sacrifices on our behalf. When I see a veteran in public places, I always thank them. ❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤
This is a song my husband wanted me to listen too. He served 43 years in Canadian Forces, diagnosed with extreme PTSD. He worked alongside some amazing American soldiers. He is doing well today, lots of difficult roads. The hardest thing is the lack of appreciation and understanding of what many of our soldiers sacrifice. He is still first in line to support a vet when he sees someone on need. Thanks.
Thank you for asking people to remember our vets and acknowledging that there isn't enough done for our soldiers that return home and are disregarded as nothing, and asking people to donate and help them.
Unfortunately vets do not get to pick the wars... you are in and you get called to serve... it is a great sacrifice and I thank all vets for their service. God bless you!
The first few times I watched this video.. I could do nothing but cry through it. My tears were for brothers who didnt come home from Afghanistan, for their wives and children, and for the world that is emptier without them. Im fortunate enough to have a home and people who love me.. But there are too many Vets who have noone, and very little or no help. So please.. Donate to Homes for Our Troops, Wounded Warrior Project, or any of the number of charities listed at the end of this video. Thanks fellas.
I love watching you young men listen to songs that come from my era of the 70's and 80's. I have a suggestion for you that I think that you all would actually love. If you haven't heard this song before, please do a reaction to one of my favorite songs from back in the day-"Cowboys to Girls" by the intruders. A real banger!
I first heard Five Finger Death Punch on my second tour to Iraq. I started looking into them and what they’re about. They are huge supporters of the military and police. Their video to their song Bad Company was filmed during their USO tour to Iraq to perform for the military. Anyone who is willing to go to a place like that to entertain the military members gets my respect.
I thank your Mom for her service… im married to a Marine Hospital Corpsman and im a proud Marine wife. Thank you all who serve! Without y’all we are not free! ❤
22 a day gentlemen. I have lost some brothers who were never able to recover. Thank you for doing and keeping this active..FFDP has always been on our side. 😔😔😔 Salute to my brothers and Sister still fighting. Dont stop and know we are always here to listen
I am a Navy veteran and thank you for your honest reaction. I come from a proud military family to include all of my uncles, my dad, myself, my brother, my sister, my brother-in-law, my son, my nephew and I am sure there are more I could name.
Gents, Tillman died because the commander on the ground didn't have situational awareness when they got ambushed. Tillman flanked the enemy, and he had Afghanistan combatants with him. They leadership didn't control the situation, and a younger gentleman engaged what he thought was more enemies on high ground. And unfortunately, it was my Tillman. He wasn't trying to uncover anything. He was a proud team leader doing his job. We gave to craps about the opium fields. We fought for our brothers. He was a proud and amazing Ranger.
This song hits me hard every time. I am a disabled veteran, 15 Years in the Army spent a few tours in Iraq and was there in Iraq in 2003 during that initial push. I suffer from PTSD, Anxiety and depression and cant work anymore. Its sad to see how Veterans are treated now a days. My father is also a veteran of the Army and did time in Vietnam. He also suffers from PTSD and has Parkinson's due to his subjection to the Agent Orange they used over there. Vietnam vets got treated even worse than the rest of us have. We loose 22 veterans a day to suicide. That's 22 to many. I was almost one of them. I cant enjoy the one most favorite thing I loved as a kid, Fireworks on fourth of July. Lots of others are even worse. If your a Vet and are struggling please get help some how some way. Talk to someone, anyone. You are worth more than you know. Thank you to all fellow veterans for your service.
Thank you for not leaving us, brother. No matter how hard things may seem some days know there are people who care and believe in you. It's okay to cry, it's okay to crawl, it's okay to hurt, but we can never give up.
Honestly I don't like FFDP, most of their songs are really cringe and their lyrics are super tryhard tough guy type shit. But this song has such a good message and the lyrics really tugg on the heart strings, even coming from someone who isn't a veteran.
I'm married to a Navy vet with severe PTSD. The pain we go through every day that was inflicted 25 to 30 years ago is devastating. I don't think anyone who hasn't been there can comprehend war. He's 100% disabled from the PTSD. This is the real cost of your freedom. The real menace of war. The young man in orange spoke the truth. There is never any truth in it. Thank you for this review. The video, and song is incredibly powerful for my family.
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I'm one of the lucky ones that made it out w/o PTSD, but I've seen it. I always wish I could do more for my fellow veterans that are suffering.
I take care of older gentlemen in assisted care facilities. One man couldn't even read his newspaper, because his body naturally sways back and forth. That man witnessed uncountable death, and probably caused a good bit himself. Coming back home knowing that there's a mother in the country you left getting that message that her son is dead and you were the one to do it. You've got proud family members and you couldn't feel dirtier. It's a strange limbo they're left in.
Me, too. Marine combat Vet husband.
Tell your husband that his sacrifice is never not going to be appreciated
It must be awful dealing with that and you most likely don't get any help from the government so medical bills keep adding up. He went to war for your government NOT your freedom and your government just forgot about him, it's a disgrace.
The Gulf War was between Iraq and Kuwait, how did that threaten your freedom in any way?
Americans are brainwashed into thinking everyone is trying to take your freedom. When 911 happened was your freedom threatened in any way?
Sorry for the mini rant with what you're going through but Americans need to realise that your freedom is very rarely threatened. Nobody says Freedom more than Americans
Wow, I caught this pretty quick. As a disabled vet from the 1st gulf war, thank you guys. There’s more pride in this country then they want u to believe. Thank you guys for the video. B
Thank you for your service. And yes, there is a ton of pride in this country and our flag. And so much appreciation for our vets who we need to be taking better care of.
Thank you for your service
No amount of I thank you for your service can ever be said, to show how much I appreciate what you have done for this country. 🙏🏼
Thank you for your service! My family and I are forever indebted to you! ❤🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
You are spot on, Pride for our country pulses through many Americans veins! ❤️🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
Thanks for acknowledging these young gentlemen. I love their reactions. They're always so full of energy. It's people like these young men who will save our precious republic. I can tell they have it in them to be great. I, too, am a disabled vet from the first gulf war, and id like to say thank you for your service as well. Keep on keeping on, brother...
I couldn’t listen to this song for awhile, I’ve seen to many of my friends die. I’m glad more folks are coming around and supporting us we need it
Always brother. I lost my fiance, who was homeless for 3 years and an alcoholic. Navy Hospital Corpsman. He got his life together but the PTSD never went away.
I have nothing but love and respect for you guys.
You are not forgotten ❤️
FFDP Has done a tremendous amount of work and outreach for struggling veterans. Shout out to them
Yes!! It angers me when people discredit them and degrade them. I can’t stand it.
@@navybaby7371 They get degraded and disrespected because Ivan Moody is an absolute dick to people. The only good thing they've done is their military support and that's it.
100% and is a huge reason why I'm a fan. They could go without writing another good song and I will still support them for the work they have done.
Not just FFDP, a lot of metal groups do a lot for the struggling groups, vets, people dealing with suicidal issues and depression and all ignorant people say is metal is angry devil music. Yes some IS just dark but there's so many metal bands that base their music off the Bible and make music to help people that are mentally struggling deal
As a vet this song always makes my eyes water. I have 3 teammates who have taken their own lives. The saying "war is hell" has deep roots. I really enjoy watching you young men and the reactions you have to different things. You provide me hope that not all our youth are idiots. You gentlemen are thoughtful, and I enjoy listening to you discuss the many topics you watch.
Vietnam I'm guessing from your profile pic yes? If so, welcome home brother.
Thank you for your service. I feel your team mates' pain. It's a hard spiral to get free of.
God bless you and all of your fellow brothers and sisters from the bottom of my heart.
I’m not a veteran but this song makes me cry every time.
same
Yeah I can't help it, the video breaks me every time.
Me too
To you and the Commenters...
Why does it make you cry?
@@dropkick9517 For me, its just so jam packed with emotion (especially with it along with the video) it's very easy to get overwhelmed and start shedding a tear or few.
Disabled Vet here, and everytime I see this video I tear up and thank God that I was fortunate enough to get the help that I needed.
Returning to Civilian life, especially after being in Combat can be one of the hardest transitions a person will ever have to make.
A lot of us don't know how to socialize anymore, or we can't hold jobs or we feel alone because nobody understands us.
For every Veteran out there... It is a Hard road but please reach out to the VA and get yourself taken care of. I know there are a lot of horror stories... But there are some truly amazing people out there that will go above and beyond to get you the help that you need and deserve.
Thank u so much for reacting to this song!!!!
My husband is currently serving in the US Army....22 yrs and counting....and suffers from PTSD from all the times as he has been deployed. It's hard to see him go thru it.
Everyone thinks the government takes care of vets and active duty war fights but you would shocked how horrible things can be sometimes. Healthcare is horrible, the perks of being in the service is dwelling, and some weeks he makes less than min. wage with all the hrs he puts in. But neither one of us regrets him serving. He defends us and I'm so proud of him
That's why I have never registered at Veterans Affairs. I would have to drive 100 miles for treatment. Screw that, I can pay myself and be seen faster locally!
So sorry your husband is going through that. Obviously you're a great wife to be with him so long. Best wishes to you both.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, for your husbands & your family’s service. Some people don’t realize it’s the entire family that also serves its country and makes sacrifices.
The way we treat vets is disgusting. I’m 50 and after all these years I can’t
believe we still haven’t
changed that!
It is horrible. Thank you for your service as when one serves the family serves. God bless you
Bless you, for staying with him through all his struggles. You too are dealing with so much and I love you for supporting him.
My husband and I are both vets, and our son is in the Army now. Getting Veteran Assistance is very difficult. Not everyone can get it, and it honestly isn't much. My husband's PTSD is so bad that it was hard watching our son join, but we are still so proud of him. Thank you for your support and for making this video!
Thank you both for y'all's service an to your son as well God bless an may he watch over your son an keep him safe
This song hits home. I’ve been in the military for 15 years now and although it’s a little different in Canada it’s not far off. We have the same battles for our vets as well.
Thanks for your service brother my dad served 32 years active duty united States cavalry from one military family to another we appreciate our allies
And from someone from a non military family I’d like to say thank you to both your families. Without you I wouldn’t be able to enjoy the freedoms I do
Much love from the U.K.
WOW That was hard to watch! but we have to. Most of us are aware of these issues but not until we see it physically does it become a reality. Thankyou soldiers
Thank you for your service to your country and by proxy mine as well.
"Canadian vets are asking for more than we can afford" Our dumb ass prime minister that hand out cash to everyone else
These dudes have done awesome things for the vets, they came out to iraq a few times to do shows and mingle with the troops, big moral boost for us at the time..
My Uncle fought front lines of Vietnam and carried with him a lifetime of injuries, illnesses, and emotional/mental effects. The stories he told me, and the way the veterans of that war were treated when they arrived back home was sickening. Sadly, it's only gotten moderately better in younger generations. My boyfriend is a veteran and has lost 3 friends to suicide after leaving the service. We have to do better! Thanks for reacting to this guys!
Agree completely. My dad was in Vietnam and did the same things you mentioned. He had nightmares that would make him not want to sleep for days. He never really talked about it unless he drank too much, it broke my heart hearing what they went through and continued to when they came home. He recently passed in October, I have his flag & medals framed in my house ❤
@@HeatherTerry84 Salute to your Father this made me tear up. It's so tragic.
@@windog551 Thank you ♥️ Yes unfortunately it definitely is very tragic and sad. He was still an amazing dad despite those things, he worked hard every day, sometimes 14-18 hr days and go right back the next day and he did physical labor. Our veterans deserve so much more ♥️
@@HeatherTerry84 @Heather Terry Your father has my thanks for his service, sorry he had to go through all that and may he rest in peace.
It's awkward thanking Vets sometimes, since I know some Vets hate being thanked for "Just doing their Duty/Job", so I usually just thank them once then/or just treat them like I would anyone else.
My dad was 1st ID in the late 90's with a few sandbox tours in the 2000's, I know he also did some NATO peacekeeping in Kosovo and maybe Bosnia. Being in the Balkans during the 90's conflicts(If you know, you know)its quite possible he saw some stuff, but he walked out before I was a toddler and the few times we talk he's never brought it up. All he's said is don't join the military, which I'd wanted to do when younger.
Between the family connection and growing up next to a major Army base most of my life, I grew up to be a pretty patriotic person. Some of the things that've been done to Veterans, and the stuff they've had to go through for no reason is criminal IMO.
Might write a second, longer comment on that. I know people care, but that doesn't mean they wanna hear a rant on it. If I do I'll start it with a (2).
Anyways, have a good day and hope things are going alright.
I went to a treatment center in 1991 with gulf war vets and Vietnam vets. One guy said he was picking up his luggage off of a carousel at an airport and got spit on cuz he was uniform. He hit the guy and went to jail for 30 days. Not a good homecoming for him. I feel for your boyfriend. I’m just a normal idiot but last year I tried medical marijuana. I don’t get the giggles or goofy shit, it just slows down the marble going around in our heads. You’re not alone now, or ever!!!!!!
Props to you guys for watching and supporting this! Means allot to those in need! 🇨🇦🇺🇲🇬🇧
I've been with an infantry man in the Army for over 20 years who struggles with PTSD. Anyone that can help the veterans needs to. They need help, not judgment. Much love to you guys.
As the granddaughter, daughter, sister, niece, cousin, friend, and wife of veterans, thank y'all for reacting to this. ❤️
I’ve listened to this song and watched this video probably 100 times, I could watch it 100 more and I will still get emotional.
As a disabled veteran of the Iraq war, this song always hits hard for me. Remember All Gave Some, Some Gave All! RIP to my brothers we lost with the 2-8 Cavalry in 06-08 and 2009-2010
Thank you for your service and the sacrifices you made. I hope life is treating you better. You're greatly appreciated.

LOVE FFDP!! Saw them in Sturgis a few years back....tens of thousands there, motorcycles everywhere, the veterans honored. It was such a moment. Motorcycles drove down the middle of the crowd as they split open like the red sea....it was powerful.
These guys did MANY free tours in Afghanistan for the soldiers. Watch FFDP "Meet the Monster" Its a banger.
I’m so so glad you did them!! This song brings me to tears. Everytime.
Hey young brothers, glad you found this one. Great reaction and eye opening for those that don't know. We are currently losing 22-24 vets a day, to their own hands. While the wars might be over, the battle rages on for many. I wish you well and thank you for reacting to this video and helping enlighten others.
Your post with the suicide stat should be pinned.
A lot of my family has served, and I love this band the first time I watched this it was out of curiosity, and it made me cry. I still get misty eyed when u watch it
I know how these veteran's feel and I cry everytime I watch this for the lack of help we get.
18 years serving here. I met so many good friends from every race, culture and country all over the world. And I am so glad to joined.
Thank you for letting us watch this with you guys,. Heavy song. "Wash it all away" is another great jam from them.
Man😭no matter how many times I listen to this it always breaks down the barriers I've built up around my heart.
Yeah... they served together in the video... and at the end he says "You know me" to calm him down and then "You saved my life brother" ... that song makes me tear up every time.
Saw them live in St. Louis a few years ago and they were freakin' amazing! This song gets me every time.
To all the veterans who read this. I know it’s a cliche thing to say, but truly, thank you thank you so much for what you do and have done! We as people of this country, must continue to be strong and you all make that possible with your sacrifices.
God bless you all 🥹🙏🏻🇺🇸❤

I served in the United States Army Infantry for 5 years and I fought in Iraq from 2004-2005. I can't speak for other Veterans, but I myself hates it when a civilian tries to salute me or calls me a hero. Just stick with the line where you say "thank you for your service." Even when someone thanks me for my service I don't always know how to answer them because I was doing my job and getting paid to do it from American tax payers. When I went to fight in Iraq I wasn't doing it for the money or because I thought it was right. I was fighting there because I was ordered to and I was fighting for the men in my unit or as I would call them "my brothers."
I'm sure I speak for many when I say that I never had what it takes to be a soldier. So, the least I can do is thank you.
Yep
But you signed up knowing the consequences. The majority won't because they don't have the balls to put their life on the line but expect others to. For that you are being thanked, paid or not.
I was raised with the knowledge that only those who have seen service or are in service are allowed to salute even if I'm the relative of a veteran the only time I will do so is a a funeral or if I too become a brother thank you for your service and I wish you success in your struggles
My father is a Vietnam veteran. He responds with "Thank you for being an American worth fighting for." I think it's because for years after coming home, Vietnam vets were spit on, cussed out, called baby killers, etc. There was so much hatred towards them. To him it's refreshing, even all these years later, to hear someone thank him instead of hurling insults toward him. Just something to think about.
As a veteran thank you for checking this song out. All of thier songs have very deep meaning behind them. Check out more of thier stuff.
I submitted all my paperwork the day I got out received a denial letter within 3 months, and it took me 5 1/2 years of appeals to finally get my disability rating. Some people worse off than me can't wait that long without help. This song gives me chills every time I hear it.
I saw them in concert before they were huge. They were amazing. And yes, they did go and play for the troops many times in Iraq and Kuwait and hang out with them too. 🙌❤️
Thank you for bringing this to the attention to more people. We don't do enough for veterans. War is hell.
Dont have the resources..... giving it to illegals. HELTHCARE/ HOUSING/HEALTHCARE. Government says fk the veteran especially the homeless ones. THEY DONT VOTE..... SAD
War its hell when "you" Create it..

@@TheWallachian868 Ok, tough guy, whatever you say.
Currently in the ARMY 6 years and counting! Wrong Side of Heaven and Gone Away were the first songs I heard from 5FDP and I fell in love with the rest of their stuff! Great band.
Damn, ya'll just hit up my favorite bands. Listen to FFDP "Wash it all away." They are epic.
I cry every time I see this video. Y’all’s reaction alone meant the world to me!!! I am VERY MUCH involved in belong our VETS! I do in home senior nursing and many of my clients served and I thank them every-time I see them!!!! God Bless y’all!! 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅
I am a disabled combat veteran. Thank you for reacting and understanding. Everyone needs to see this video. These statistics. Thank you to all who have ever done it and those that will.
I AINT CRYIN BRO! YOU CRYIN.
mad respect to my fellow vets Semper Fidelis Brothers and Sisters.
If i'm not mistaken I believe all or most of the band are ex military. they have multiple songs dedicated to the struggle of being a soldier. highly highly recommend "Far From Home" 5FDP is right next to nickelback on being hated for no reason by many because apparently its cool. however 9/10 songs are bangers in my humble opinion.
I think Ivan and Zoltar were army, Kraken was Navy if I recall correctly.
I just seen Five Finger Death Punch live for the first time and they are great at saluting out veterans past and present. I've been a huge fan of them for a long time. I recommend watching some of their live performances and if what Ivan Moody does and says regarding our veterans gives me goosebumps everytime. He's a genuinely good dude who truly cares about our vets and the fight against cancer. God bless our veterans!
all three of my sons are soldiers one of them is home battling ptsd thank you for being respectful and spreading awareness
I'm so glad you guys got to hear this song. I was married to a military member for 16 years & saw the struggles he went through. Unfortunately also lost 2 very close military friends to suicide. Our vets deserve better. Thank you for watching this and bringing attention to it ❤️
A sincere thank you to my mans mom for her service. She served our country and helped raise a successful son. Respect
Thank y’all so much for showing this!!!! TVP is a great organization! There are many!!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE! Many people see y’all! Y’all can make a difference. PLEASE help our Veterans!!!! Thank you so much for showing so much respect!!!! My dad is retired Navy Seal! He’s an amazing man! Helps anyone he can!!! Soooo many go without when they gave all!!!!! Much LOVE to all of you!!!!
I know a marine who lost both his legs to an IED. He parked his truck in a handicapped spot and was reaching behind his seat to get his wheelchair out. Someone gave him a dirty look and made comments about him parking in a handicapped spot, even though he had a tag and was uses a wheelchair. This behavior is unacceptable. To anyone who reads this, and you served, THANK YOU!
Marine Vet that suffers from PTSD. This song and others have gotten me through some times. Thank you for your reaction 🙏🏿
Honey i live in a military city & i see homeless vet's everywhere. It's heartbreaking. My husband suffers from PTSD. It's horrible what he goes through on a daily basis.
As a military member who has been through similar situations this song really hits home for me. I love this song but it's hard for me to here it cuz it brings back past memories.
Ty for reviewing this video please do anything for a vet. Even just asking how they are doing and listening to them for a few minutes means a lot. !IGY6 is I Got Your Back is a strong motto many veterans believe in. I Served from 1988-2013 with several Trips down range. Stay real.
Everytime I hear this song, this Old Jarhead tears up! The horrors of War can never be understood by those that lived it!!
Thanks guys! I enjoy watching you listen to all kinds of music! "There but for the grace of God go I" I was homeless living in my old pickup truck after I got out my first tour of 5 years active. I was living near the beach so it wasn't all bad. Things were hard for a while, I eventually found low paying work and went back into the reserves to help pay for school and other expenses. Eventually got my BSBA (MIS) at a cheap state school, I got a job in tech after that for many years and eventually retired out of the Army Reserves, still working in tech. Turned 60 recently and started collecting my retirement pay - not much but it helps. I started Tricare this year, not sure how that is going to work out, it seems not too many doctors offices take the insurance, initial appointments are 3 months out, but it's cheaper than my work insurance. I had good times and bad times, but I'm proud of myself for sticking it out and finishing up my 21 years no matter how much I didn't like most of it. I'm kind of a rebel, and it was hard to go along to get along a lot of times and conform where I had to to stay out of trouble. I'm not sure I would do it again, especially in this environment, but it can be a way to a better life - for some, that is if they don't get you killed. I lost many friends along the way. RIP. "There for the grace of god go I"
Sounds like a rough road and not one that many people could have taken and come out the other side, happy for ya. Couple of friends I went to school with are Marines and they both have told me how they hate it when people do the whole "thank you for your service" thing, said it makes them feel super awkward lol so I'll just say I'm glad to know of another one that made it home. Best of luck with your retirement, hope ya enjoy it
I am truly glad that you persevered. I'm not a vet, but I know so many of them. My sister, at least 3 nephews, a brother in law, and numerous classmates and acquaintances from work. This song always resonates with me. The statistics had me crying at the end after I thought I had cried myself out. I love this band.
@@dinab8626 Thanks Dina, enjoy the music!
This video always makes me cry, it's so powerful and I love how they're bringing to light one of the many problems our country is dealing with and how we're failing those that sacrificed their lives so that we can live freely. Great song and video. ❤️ Under and Over It is another great well known song by them.
This song legit always makes me cry. I've been active duty Air Force for about 9 years now and it always hurts to watch this video.
Hugely underrated band, they’ve got great songs…
I remember recommending this song to you guys. Not sure if it was my comment that brought you to it, but thanks for reacting nonetheless. FFDP not only made a beautiful song, but they used their voice to speak for our Vets. I'm a psychotherapist who works with Vets with PTSD; it's a real issue that sometimes the civilian world doesn't remember. Thanks again for showing respect for our former and current servicemembers.
Thank you all for reacting to this. This is a deep& true video. God bless all that are without homes. God bless you all.
I hope this video becomes one of your most popular, we need to help our hero’s.
MY BROTHER IS AN ARMY SPECIAL FORCES VETERAN HE WAS IN VIETNAM HE GOT SO MUCH HATE WHEN HE CAME HOME. THANKS FOR YOURE HONESTY LOVE YOU GUYS
Im so glad you all are allowing us to see your growth. It was obvious by the title alone, there was skepticism in listening to this song. As a female Veteran and number 23...FFDP and a lot of other rock song lyrics resonate.
Keep up the good work. P.S. dobt start another organization go out ad do some volunteering with established groups.
I want to say thank you to you guys for having respect for the veterans I myself my family and all of us. It’s hard because no one does have faith in the vets anymore. No one wants to help anymore and it sucks but thank you for the love and support gentleman.
I told y'all this was a good song. 😉❤️ Glad you guys enjoyed it and Love your review! Shout out to the soldiers!!! We need to support them more!
I always cry when I watch this video. Our Veteran's deserve so much and are getting limited service's. To all Veteran's I salute you for your service.
Finally, this is my favorite band, I'm glad you guys are finally listening to them and I hope you do a lot more of them. A little bit off, the bleeding, I apologize, coming down, I remember everything, are just a few.
Listening to this live in concert brings all to at least shed a tear! It was more amazing than a recording!
Love your hearts stay humble guys 🇺🇸
Thank you.....as a veteran your understanding and/or willingness to understand means a lot!
You need to checkout there song Far From Home, its my favorite by them really tugs at the heartstrings while making you want to head bang just like this song.
Thank you for reacting to this video, and appreciating people’s sacrifice. It affects their entire families, their friends, and everyone that loves them. Keep it up.
Im a disabled veteran and im one of the lucky ones. Vets everywhere need our help and support
Joined marine corp in 2020 everyone listens to this and I fell in love with the band
32 year veteran here. Thank You for reacting to this! Awareness is the first step! Much love!!
My dad served 32 years active duty united states army thank you for your service and sacrifice brother I understand what you been through
My Mother spent 8yrs in the Marines during Vietnam and almost killed herself because she fought the government for 22yrs to get the disability she deserved from her service which caused her to be partially paralyzed.
When my Mother finally came home a group of "hippies" were waiting at the bus stop and saw my Mother's uniform, my Grandparent's has just used most of their saving to buy her a nice heavy winter coat. These "hippies" proceeded to spit at her, kick her, call her a baby killer and dumped a 5 gallon bucket of pig's blood over her head drenching her to the bone.
In that moment she decided to dedicate the rest of her life to make sure she would move heaven and earth alone if need be to get her brother's and sister's who had none and nothing help.
I feel privileged to have seen with my own eyes the true price of war. Everything from ppl suffering, forgotten, in agony dying from agent orange. I've talked to POW's held in bamboo cages and the thing's that were done to them. I saw a widow fight 25yrs to clear her "AWOL" husband's name and come back to bury the only physical remain left of his body a 3 inch piece of jaw bone.
The names carved on the black granite wall are the names of 58,000 men who our country knowingly left behind.
I love my country, but it's the Politicians who pull the strings and make back door deals that I hate.
This is probably my favorite reaction so far. It's a pretty personal one to me for reasons and I'm glad to see the video had the effect on you that the band wanted.
A lot of people don't know how bad it is for veterans and it's getting worse, so I'm happy to see it getting out there. Thanks guys for helping with that 😊
Wow! This reaction touched me. All five of you were so respectful. God bless our Veteran's 🙏 ❤️
As a retired Iraq War Vet this song always hits me hard!
This track and the video are our wake up call to all vets that we as civilians have to do better by them.
They fought for us, bled for us, died for us, just so we can act like assholes. We owe them and we have failed them. We have to do better by them.
We as a people and a nation need to get them the help they need. Phycological for ptsd/ shell shock and reintegration into civilian life,job placement and training to let them move on with their lives. And most importantly, let them know we have their backs as they had ours and they are never alone.
Never forget
There’s a seal team member named Eddie Penney, dude talked about the thrill of dropping a dude.. heroic and terrifying.
Maybe at first
@@DeadInside-ew8qbexactly, then the thoughts creep in and your sanity is slowly ripped away from you
This group does a lot of soldier recognition. They're very supportive of vets, which is awesome.
I have no shame in admitting that I was in tears the 1st time I saw this video. Not much ever bothers me, but I get choked up everytime I've seen this video.
Thank you vets for your service and sacrifice.
I've asked you guys on several videos to watch this and you did and I can't thank you enough. I am a disabled veteran I can hardly walk and suffer from ptsd , anxiety, depression and agoraphobia but....watching your videos help me through all this. So thank you guys so much and God bless you
I'm so proud at how much ya'll have grown in heart over the last 10 months or so. Thanks for reacting to this. It's important we keep these channels open. People need to truly understand what their sacrifices have gained us as American citizens. And there have been many sacrifices on our behalf.
When I see a veteran in public places, I always thank them.
❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤🇺🇸❤
Thanks for showing this one guys. This one wrecks me every time I see it.
As a veteran nothing comes easy once you are out. At times it’s a harder fight when you get home.
This is a song my husband wanted me to listen too. He served 43 years in Canadian Forces, diagnosed with extreme PTSD. He worked alongside some amazing American soldiers. He is doing well today, lots of difficult roads. The hardest thing is the lack of appreciation and understanding of what many of our soldiers sacrifice. He is still first in line to support a vet when he sees someone on need. Thanks.
This song hits deep , much respect to the fallen 🙏
Thank you for asking people to remember our vets and acknowledging that there isn't enough done for our soldiers that return home and are disregarded as nothing, and asking people to donate and help them.
Unfortunately vets do not get to pick the wars... you are in and you get called to serve... it is a great sacrifice and I thank all vets for their service. God bless you!
The first few times I watched this video.. I could do nothing but cry through it. My tears were for brothers who didnt come home from Afghanistan, for their wives and children, and for the world that is emptier without them. Im fortunate enough to have a home and people who love me.. But there are too many Vets who have noone, and very little or no help. So please.. Donate to Homes for Our Troops, Wounded Warrior Project, or any of the number of charities listed at the end of this video. Thanks fellas.
Gotta do PAINKILLER by Judas Priest!!
I love watching you young men listen to songs that come from my era of the 70's and 80's. I have a suggestion for you that I think that you all would actually love. If you haven't heard this song before, please do a reaction to one of my favorite songs from back in the day-"Cowboys to Girls" by the intruders. A real banger!
This song is just sad man. Meaningful but sad that it's true.
I first heard Five Finger Death Punch on my second tour to Iraq. I started looking into them and what they’re about. They are huge supporters of the military and police. Their video to their song Bad Company was filmed during their USO tour to Iraq to perform for the military. Anyone who is willing to go to a place like that to entertain the military members gets my respect.
This breaks my heart. My family has a lot of veterans. I saw first hand how they were treated when they came back.
I thank your Mom for her service… im married to a Marine Hospital Corpsman and im a proud Marine wife. Thank you all who serve! Without y’all we are not free! ❤
22 a day gentlemen. I have lost some brothers who were never able to recover. Thank you for doing and keeping this active..FFDP has always been on our side. 😔😔😔 Salute to my brothers and Sister still fighting. Dont stop and know we are always here to listen
I am a Navy veteran and thank you for your honest reaction. I come from a proud military family to include all of my uncles, my dad, myself, my brother, my sister, my brother-in-law, my son, my nephew and I am sure there are more I could name.
If you like FFDP you'll love Hatebreed. You should check out Hatebreed - 'Through The Thorns', and as a veteran I thank you guys for reacting to this.
Gents, Tillman died because the commander on the ground didn't have situational awareness when they got ambushed. Tillman flanked the enemy, and he had Afghanistan combatants with him. They leadership didn't control the situation, and a younger gentleman engaged what he thought was more enemies on high ground. And unfortunately, it was my Tillman. He wasn't trying to uncover anything. He was a proud team leader doing his job. We gave to craps about the opium fields. We fought for our brothers. He was a proud and amazing Ranger.
