Seen this video. Seen and hearing MARINE 1 (ERIN). To Honor. Gave Thanks. Make me proud. One winter later afternoon. As the rain was pouring. There stood only 5. No music. Marine 1. Look at me. I handed salute. Reported. All 5 Branches. Are Presented and a counted for. He told us 5. What all heard on here. None of us. Left untill the colors. Were off stage. Then we all walk over. Welcome. Home. We all had tears. Wet from the rain. No rain gear on. No covers. Thats pride for us 5.
yeah me too thanks for commenting. Soon I will post a vid that we took. Recently when we went to Disneyland with my family. My brother recently came home form Iraq and this was the first time we saw him in over a year. We did not tell him or our dad (who is a veteran, retired Navy and fought in the Vietnam War). We surprised them by taking them to the flag retreat. It was a touching moment and a memory we will never forget.
....And to think Disneyland is stopping the flag retreat using the actual security team members for this daily ceremony only to be replaced with a recorded version of their spoken words.......Absolutely shameful..........First the wench scene in the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction, now the United States flag !

Who in the world gave this video a thumbs down?!
I have no idea
Why do I have a feeling the two Random girls in purple and black didn't even serve, and just walked up there because they felt like it.
They stood in. For there son,or daughter and or brother or sister.To honor them.
