    So beautiful. As I watch the patriotic videos you have reacted to, I cry for my country. We in America have been given an unbelievable gift, and there is a minority - and, yes, it IS a minority, of Americans who hate what we have and what we are. The majority of Americans love our country and recognize how much blood and treasure has been sacrificed to keep us free. Thank you so much for your reaction videos. Another video you may want to react to is "Only in America" by Brooks & Dunn.

      Yes. You are right that they are the minority. God bless you my sister, my fellow American. I cry over it too.

      Correct Kathy. Breaks my heart to see the Hate for our country these days. Unlike anything I have seen in my 63 years. We need to Hold the Line now more then ever. Semper Fi

    This is really beautiful. My cousin went to West Point. It’s not an easy place to get accepted into. He played football for the Army and served in both Iraq wars. It was years ago, but I remember how proud his parents were of him. They had his cadet saber framed and mounted on the wall.

    As a navy man, I submit to you, for your perusal, and in the desire to see my shipmates get "equal time", that you take a look and listen to the Naval Academy Glee Club Tribute to Pearl Harbor. "Eternal Father", The Navy Hymn. This is something worth hearing.

    this is probably too late: Lyrics: V1 To fallen Soldiers let us sing; Where no rockets fly nor bullets wing; Our broken brothers let us bring, To the Mansions of the Lord. V2 No more bleeding no more fight; No prayers pleading through the night; Just divine embrace, external light; In the Mansions of the Lord. V3 Where no mothers cry and no children weep; We will stand and guard though the angels sleep; While through the ages safely keep; The Mansions of the Lord. Very meaningful. I especially love the line “No prayers pleading through the night”-very poignant.

    You look like a rugby player. I played in the 70s for three years that’s all I could take. :-) I love the physical contact. I went into the fire service for 25 years. For back operations throughout that time but put my kids through Catholic schools college and bought them homes. Tough to walk now but it was worth it. I’m glad I came up on your video you’re very right make sure appreciate the man who fight for our safety and I freedom thank you for your video. Mike California

    One of the single most impressive men I've ever known is a very good friend of mine, a grad of the Point, a Special Forces Brig. Gen., who now teaches at a naval war college in Rhode Island. Just love the guy, and I'm so fortunate that we click so well and have for years. If EVER you have the chance to visit West Point a couple of hours north of NYC on the Hudson River, IMO, it's one of the most breath-taking campuses in America. Stunning. Even google the chapel for more complete images. It's impossible to walk in that church and NOT have one's breath taken away. It's truly a reverential place.
    Great post!

    I had the pleasure and honor of singing under Constance Chase, who was the musical director of the music program at West Point for nearly 20 years, and the Glee Club in the West Point Chapel many years ago as part of Connecticut Chamber Choir. The West Point Glee club did in fact sing this piece and it was written for the movie.

    This breaks my heart. To see what my country is doing to our armed forces...trying to change their character to be “woke”. I really don’t know how we can survive if we stay on this path. I am glad my grandfather (who was in WW2 in the Air Force) can’t see what is being done. It would break his heart.

    Hi again Scottish Guy. If you will go to RUclips and pull up Mansions of the Lord you will get several renditions including the one just shown. You will also see 2-3 that will have the lyrics posted to follow. A beautiful song based on a Bible verse. To paraphrase, God's house is a house of many mansions. Come see us.
