Hundreds of uniformed police and U.S. military service officers lined the streets of Manhattan for the funeral for NYPD police detective and soldier Joseph Lemm at St Patrick's Cathedral, which was attended by NYPD Commission William Bratton and Mayor Bill de Blasio, among others.

It’s sad knowing the fact that the boy lost his father at that age
😭😭😭😭
what about in palestine iraq and other countries who kid lost their entire families?
@the terminator im saying we only remember american casualties, but we dont care what casualties other countries endured. and im talking about before ISIS, the israeli palestine war, iraqi war, etc. We side with the evil and forget about the innocent such as palestinian casualties. Ever heard someone from america go up on stage and talk about whats happening in palestine? til now palestinians are suffering from Zionism. No one cares. but if an american dies we cry. We are hypocrits
@@ivyimvu8499 We r talking about this kid. We don't say middle east don't lost their parents or smt. I think u lost ur compass. This video is about a kid lost his dad that's it, talk ur opinion about it. And in the middle east's video the same about them.
Yes , he doesn’t really know what’s going on.
It’s too bad he will have pictures only to remind him. I hope his mom and other family members will talk about his dad a lot and let this little boy
know him through their experience
Poor little kid, he doesn't even realize the pain of losing his dad he's so Inocente it's heartbreaking.
I agree
Sucks Man. I would hate for my kiddos to see this if this happened to me.
@@marcoplataplata9702 The same with me!
*innocent
@Johnathan marshall YOU SHUT UP OK BOOMER
as someone who lost their dad at 10 years old, i understand the pain he will feel later in his life.
same here, I was 10 when he passed away and I'm 50 years old now and I think about him every day!
Sorry for your loss...
Who lost his* father
same, I was 9 at the time, im 12 now
The kid feel so painful till his headache lol
He doesn’t know whats going on... he is too young to understand.
Gandalf, you are probably correct. John John wouldn't have remembered saluting his father's casket either since that day was his 3rd birthday. He certainly had seen the film footage numerous times before his own death since his father was the most powerful man in the world at the time. I always cry my way through the films taken from that day that are shown on the Smithsonian Channel. I was also 3 at the time of his death.
@@survivrs I was 14 years old at the time, Not only did I lose my Innocence America had also lost its Innocence too It was very dark time for us back then a time I dont think we ever recovered from
@@jamesmattice1895 I "get" what you are saying. about it being a dark time, but I do think we recovered from it unless I was totally naive about it all. I feel we are going into a very dark time again, and with Biden, I am terrified about our future.
why are you yo negative ,
Мальчик думает, что вечером папа придёт домой и будет обнимать его щёки, как всегда...
Just the fact that the boy, a little baby boy, kept his hand up the entire time, shows how much respect and love he has for his dad and what his dad was fight for.
❤️
He has no idea what his dad was fighting for, dont politicise an innocent soul who has lost so much
@@jimmymilne6065 ?
That's just sad...he is too young yet death has no mercy
Death sometimes has mercy.
I'm sure that their must be something sader - but I can't imagine it .
@@douggodfrey6521 Just imagine how many Iraqi kids lost their fathers.
@@douggodfrey6521 Anytime young children lose a parent, it's at the top of the "saddest moment ever" in everyone else's eyes. As a parent, it is incredibly painful to try to explain to young children what has happened, and why it happened. That "why"? being the most difficult at the time.
@@ahmedabdullah8909 more reason for peace deals.
I just lost my dad at 31 and it’s a different pain unlike anything I’ve ever felt before.
my dad was a marine before I was born. I am growing up with the saying once a marine always a marine. He is still alive and healthy
ALHAMDULILLAH
HOORAH
@Daisy Moultrie why would he be brainwashed 🤣😂🤣😂
@Daisy Moultrie yea but what would he be brainwashed into
Hugs from Mozambique 🇲🇿😇
Whoever this boy is, I hope he grows up to be the best and I'm sure this dad would be proud of him.
If the kid sees this in the future somehow, stay strong and do your best to make your dad proud
Poor little boy.......nobody should ever expierience something like this. Especialy not little kids......this is heartbreaking......
bro everyone will experience death get over it
@@guy_in_ashopping_cart-sfs967 Yes. but not a little kids, who have to cry over a cascade of his father. I don't think ANYBODY should expierience that. I myself have no problem with that. I saw more than enough of deaths, probably for three more lives, during the war in my country.
@@33neptun fair enough.
Sorry for being rude, I believe that I came off wrong in that comment, what I meant is that everyone should be prepared for death, and instead of mourning for a dead person I believe it is more healthy to celebrate the dead persons life and to try not to be sad, now obviously this is like a 4-5 year old kid we are talking about so I do feel sorry for him and his loss, I am going through a rough time myself so sorry for coming off blunt and rude, I should have explained my argument better.
@@guy_in_ashopping_cart-sfs967 There was nothing rude in your comment. No worries mate. Everything's fine.I wish i could explain to this boy that his father is on the better place now, and that they will be together again, but still, it's hard to see him so broken. I saw a lot of it, and it's not something you can get used to...Especialy the childen's tears is devastating... There is a quote, i think it was Dostojevski - We have no right on happiness, as long as children's tears exsist....Totaly agree with that. Again, nothing to be sorry for mate. There was nothing rude in your comment. Greets...

The fact that he doesnt understand whats going on is even more heartbreaking🥺
Ikr🥺. He’ll be pissing tears when he grows up and sees this video.
A kid his age should never have to go three this. Memorial Day just passed so thank you for the lives that this little boys dad saved.
He thinks he’s just saluting the flag. Little did he know, his father is in there.
Very sad although he will probably find this video
@@bale9175 You’re probably right.
Don't underestimate little kids . . my parents became alarmed when as an adult, I could recall exact details of events that occurred when I was under 3... kids DO know what is going on around them and they can remember.
@@Jan_YTview yup I started at 4 years old for me
This reminds me of when i as an 8 year old and had to experience my father’s death in 2012. I feel sorry for that poor kid. If there is one thing that should be said, it’s the bravery of that kid.
RIP. Stay strong dude
I feel bad i hope u r ok
Damn rip dude, my grandpa died today stay strong
Sorry for your loss
bless you boy.
I wish this boy a happy and healthy life. He will always have his dad watching over him keeping him safe.
how do you know?
@@kalost2939 How do you know he wont?
This hurts me. My grandchildren lost their daddy at the age of 33. (Heart attack brought on by diabetes.) They're 7 and 3. They ARE aware he's gone...he adored them and was a big part of their lives. My 3 y/o granddaughter told me "Daddy made the monsters go away." Now she turns my closet light on whenever she comes in my room. I feel for any child losing their parent. And the spouse. My daughter is devastated like this poor woman. I hope she finds peace.
Hello, how are you doing? Hope you’re having a wonderful day!
I pray you, and the rest of your family find peace. 🙏
hii you okay now?
The kids father was a True hero. He might not know what it means to salute but he did show respect to his father and I salute to the bother of them and every other fallen officer or people in the Military
Hold him in your heart, little one. Live a fulfilling life and carry on your father’s spirit.
For what? That hes Dad diying for Oil?
Although no longer in his sight
In his heart Dad's always home
Bless you little one You will make Daddy proud by just being you Jenny✨

Please edit the last line. “Lest We Forget”
My son in law wasn't in the military but this is sadly beautiful. He was only 33, but now he'll forever be 33. Young and handsome, except he's no longer in pain. That poor boy was hurting so bad. I miss him so much, but I'm glad he's no longer in pain.

I lost my father in my early 30s and I'm still feeling the pain from time to time. This boy will probably do so too. I hope he sees this video of the funeral in the future and sees the caring of all those that stood besides him and his dad and finds peace.
This was up there with that “it’s been a year daddy” video in the level of sadness
why did i just read that line in my head with the voice of a young girl. Its so sad
@Basharat Kureshi it’s so sad 😭

Heh Buddy
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
Both an NYPD DETECTIVE and an AIRMAN thank you for your Service 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
PAIN AND SUFFERING ... I FEEL THEM NEAR MYSELF.... ADMIRATION AND RESPECT FOR MEN LIKE HIM.....MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCE TO HIS FAMILY
Reminiscent of little "John, John" saluting his father's coffin on Monday November 25 1963
Yes
He died in 1999
Jacqueline Kennedy coached John Jr ahead of the funeral to do this. If you watch closely; you can almost see her giving the child a push forward.
he is lucky as he didnt realize the pain of losing dad, but his father ain't gonna back forever. I feel so sorry for his loss
The people of south Wales UK thank you for your service R.I.P
Just imagine how many Iraqi kids lost their fathers.
@@ahmedabdullah8909 yes I agree very sad for all sides the second gulf war should never have happened. It was a pointless wrong war and the politicians who gave the green light should have been arrested but not the fault of the soldiers doing there duty.

@@mryesissus3015 Don't get why you sent me that??
It broke my heart to see this little boy salute his father reminds me of John John years ago
This is how my dad found out his dad had died in WW2 - Germans bombed an ammunitions factory my grandad was delivering to.
My dad a 10yr old ( from Liverpool ) came from
A big family and his mum was very hard and tough . My dad is walking down the road and a kid shouts out ‘ Billy Fagan your dad is dead ‘ .. ‘no he’s not ‘ says my dad . He runs home and says ‘ Ma is my dad dead ?’ …. ‘Yeah son he is ‘ she answers .
That’s it . No hug or sympathy just had to get on with things . Tough times … rest in peace dad hope you found yours too ❤️
This tore me up & I couldnt help but cry seeing this lil guys face . The sacrifices our brave men & women make in the armed forces is truly selfless
I can not imagine this for my kids. Heartbreaking
Just imagine how many Iraqi kids lost their fathers.
if only world peace was real :(
Every solider that doesn't come back alive disserves this. No question ask. Top most respect to our fallen.
I lost my Dad at 5. I remember his funeral, but I didn't fully grasp it until years later. This boy is going to need so much support growing up 🥺❤️
He knows his father isn't coming home again. Looks more like police officers than airforce.
My father was killed in Vietnam in 1969. I was 7. I remember when the Chaplain and military men came to our apartment. I had no idea what was going on. But the pain on my moms face I’ll never forget. She didn’t cry once, not in front of her 4 kids. She cried her heart out behind closed doors though. She still lives with that pain.
omg I'm so sorry. my condolences to you and your family. no one deserves this kind of pain. I hope you're doing well. Take care 💕
OMG ,I'm 65 yrs old and I cried for this little young man, may the Lord help u get thru this unforgettable experience. Love u young man.
His father fought for TRUTH, FREEDOM and DEMOCRACY!
Fought for the Zionists movement, Iraq's oil and u s companies
@Halihalo millions of Iraqi children lost dads too
@Halihalo hes not wrong tho.. Just not the right moment.
@Halihalo A little boy lost his dad for no reason. They US had no reason to stay in the middle east for as long as they did.
@@user-dg5ng3gg8y how dare you belittle the death of a serviceman! You,are an enemy of the state!
Farewell my brother...
A very heartbreaking moment to see this poor little angel. Pray whole family to best this irreparable loss 🙏🙏🙏
Lost my dad 14 years ago, that pain never goes away !!
Who would dislike this video?!
anti american communist
@@thewayofaxiom Ikr.
Those who didn't understand the concept
the people who are being killed by the same fallen guy the unknown fallen People who died for nothing
they are bots
This makes me cry, so sad to lose a father ❤️may he rest in peace and his family will always remember him...
Poor boy. I feel so bad. I was on the verge or tears watching, this is so sad. May his dad Rest In Peace.
I lost my mother when I was three, and totally remember the event from a few days before, through to her funeral. I wish I hadn't remembered that part of my life...as it's even more painful now that I'm 70 years old, every time I think about it. Soon I will see the mother I didn't have and I will rejoice in heaven.
I am a German Guy, and i am still crying for all the Kiddys who lost their Mom and Dad, Sister or Brother.
Rest in Peace an thank you for your Service
WOW. This is so heartbreaking to watch. Bless his little heart 💜. Brave little man. Blessings to you and your family little man.
Free
Thank you for your service. You paid the ultimate sacrifice. May you find peace. That little boy is a soldier in my book.
Dear sweet little man. My dad was airforce too. Sorry for your loss. RIP.
He and *they* did so much for our country, safety, and well being. HUGE respect, rest in peace. 🙏
Lost my best friend 💔😢 some weeks back, after we both served at Allepo he was then redeployed to Iran I saluted him and hugged him and we both laughed I never knew that was the last day I'll see him, rest in peace my best friend till we see 🙏❤️ he couldn't make it home I just can't stop crying
I’m incredibly sorry for your loss my friend and I want to Personally thank you for your sacrifice and of course his. Never let his memory die by honoring him in the way he’d want you to live. Godspeed to your friend and keep your chin up soldier🤝
What did you think war was? A video game?
So many have given so much to the many now so ungrateful.
@taladuga picpwaspwat Just because people high up cause problems and start wars. Does not mean the people who join to defend freedom have the same intentions. If there were no military, there would be no protection. And the enemies that the high ups make, would soon be a safety concern.
@@davidb556 Defend "your" nation. Defend "your" land. Defend "your" people. GTFO of other people's land. Those people don't want you there. Why is it so hard to understand?
@BernieEinreb371 do you really need to be "those people" to empathize? Or should only the kin of those civilians killed by drone strikes have a say in this?
@BernieEinreb371 That "some" people want nosy Americans on their soil is the greatest apologia entitled Americans come up with. The second is oil. But anyone with half a brain would realize that those that died are mere pawns doing the bidding of corporate oligarchs.
@BernieEinreb371 The same place you came from. The same place all of the human race came from. Africa. What gives US the right to decide who needs freedom and who doesn't?
Your a legend little brother. Rip to a hero much love from Australia 🇦🇺
This came on my feed this breaks my heart, to all the veterans thank you for your service. I pray every day because I have a cousin in the military.
We so often see happy reunions of service persons with their families. This is the all too common other side.
He may be too young to fully understand but he’ll never forget this day unfortunately, bless him and his family. Doesn’t matter if your a car wash attendant or a Colonel, your Dad is your Dad.
Hello Deborah
How are you doing? Hope you and your family are safe
I just want to pick him up, the poor little boy is holding in his tears for his family, you can see he wants to cry and scream but he’s holding it in
🙏Царство небесное ему.Пусть пухам будет земля ему😞.Жалко семью и друзей, близких столкнувшись с этим.Потерять близкого это жесть.

This is so heartbreaking. I lost my father when i was 6 month old
Stop being mean troll
He was a police officer and in the service if you click the little arrow on right side under the subject it gives you all information,he was killed in Afghanistan
He went to kill Afghans and fortunately he was killed
Elizabeth who was killed in afghanistan 😭😭😭😭
Poor kind he has to live without a for dad for the rest of his life I feel bad for the guy😢
I can't stop crying for this little boy and of course his family and every brave fallen soldier thank you for your duty and sacrifice RTP ALL SOLDIERS you will be missed and you are all our HEROS
The Boy Understands What's happening it is very emotional. May His Heroe Dad Rest In Eternal Peace.
Break your heart looking at that poor kid and his family ♥️
As we Airmen ,and brothers,sisters in arms grieve again in remberence today the anniversary of 911 when we served so others could live and have freedom.we salute all who gave their sacrafice.
i havent served but this broke my heart to see the kid doing that. i lost my dad when i was 17.
My father was 6 when he lost his father. That boy does know what's going on. My father cried 50 years later after visiting his grave!
It's sad. It reminds me of Kennedys little son saluting him at his funeral 😭
When I saw this, my thoughts went back to 1964, I was 6 when JFK was assassinated, and little John Jr saluted his dad outside of the church.
And the tragedy unfortunately continued when that same little boy the world saw, later perished with his wife and others when their aircraft nosedived into the waters of off Martha's vineyard.
Made the memory even more painful
I just lost my dad last February but I’m 45. He was a 26 year vet of the Marine Corp and Air Force. He served overseas during Vietnam. I can’t imagine what this child is going through. How much he understands? When will war end?
My baby, I want to give him the biggest hug 🥺
A estrela voltou a brilhar no céu, descanse em paz
it hurts to see the grief of the family and the child. I'm crying..
he absolute gets it... hes big strong ..like a man should
he knows, like you said, the seriousness of the situation. If he was old enough to salute then he was old enough to understand
Respect and condolences from this US Army combat vet....
What about civilians who died, lost their loved ones, homes and everything because of USA?
Many of you have forgotten who we are. Not this small Hero. I have no more tears.
It’s amazing that we as Americans show such a great support for fallen heroes, they have passed on but will be remembered through there ideals, patriotism, and family/friends. Don’t take life for granted people your capable of anything another man did and they are also. Everyone may not come from equal beginnings but we do all have the same blood, heart, and souls.. I encourage everyone out of respect for this man and his legacy , as well as the millions of others who have bravely let there soul fight for humanity to treat everyone equal, race religion, hell even sports beliefs we all human guys and if you are doing something or believing in something that is not true freedom get tf off my planet your outdated.. you know if this means you and your the biggest problem we have if you can’t recognize it yet..everybody should simply get along, control those emotions negative and positive they are always jus a moment of the bigger picture so don’t do something stupid well your caught up in it. Spread love not hate to everyone your all the same @republicans atm but not forever your not evil I know that ❤️
This boy really says it all…without saying a word.
He is so young to understand whats happening or maybe he is too strong like his dad . My condolenses to his family 😢😢
He will understand that when you play cowboy sometimes you get stuck!
@@cristianmannschaft1354 its nothing related
I would not have such a small child at a funeral different strokes for different folks
I just wish my dad could live till my death. I dont wanna lose him
The thumbnail and the tittle was heartbreaking, I wish the little boy well in life, and I’m sorry for his loss, and thank his father for his service. 🙏🕊️
Politicians need to keep their promise and bring the troops home. End this madness.
I agree to 100%, that such Videos never must be taken.
This very smart and strong young man, may not yet fully grasp, that his father is no more, and won't return any time soon. BUT, I dread to think that when he DOES begin to comprehend what he has so tragically lost, he'll be above devastated. Poor little fellow. I wish him strength,
fortitude and courage to absorb and carry this loss.
saddest thing i have seen today, most moving Salute I have seen ever
He is not Dead He Is Living In Our Hearts Salute To All Real Life Heroes ❤🥺 He Is Living Legend ❤
What a beautiful child saluting his dads casket. This is a very touching moment.It reminds me when John Kennedy Jr saluted his dads casket.
Allah will always protect and will always be there for the little boy and his father
I really hope his dad went to HEAVEN
We are men who died for country proud to be called my self single father son and men........
Just imagine how many Iraqi kids lost their fathers.
He is a little angel period
AMERICAN SOLDIER SONG !!
It’s not a priest that gives us our freedom of religion
And it’s not a reporter that gives us our freedom of voice.
It’s not any judge, lawyer, politician, preacher or teacher
But the blood of a soldier that has sacrificed by choice.
Our soldiers line up to be remembered
As the best of the best at their job.
They wish to be needed and depended on
To save all we love from the mob.
They risk their life and limb for liberty
Standing firm against evil unwilling to break.
To be part of something greater than themselves
They are willing to forgo whatever it will take.
THANK YOU FOR WHO YOU ARE IN YOUR HEART !

Poor lad. May his father rest in peace 🙏
It's situations like this that makes me wonder how ANYONE can disrespect our flag and our servicemen and servicewomen...RIP soldier.. my condolences to your family.. you will not be forgotten..
I was 9 losing my dad, I understood what had happened but not fully understood, now I’m turning 15 it’s hit me completely. Poor kid! May his dad RIP.
That's absolutely gut-wrenching.
Heart breaking when you loss your father when you need him most
The little guy is emotionally stunted, his emotions havent been fully developed at his young age, and he probably has barely seen his father which explains this(this is all assumption just to be clear)
What a brave lil respectful child
Un Grande Abbraccio Dall Italia... Love
My heartfelt condolences to the family, especially to the son. May his father, a hero Rest In Peace.
Amen.
