My grandpa stormed a German machine gun nest and was shot 13 times wounded from shrapnel and survived to take out the nest. He never once mentioned it to family we found out after his death in 1983. My grand pa the silent hero. We have no idea what men and women have done for us and our country.
My grandfather served in ww2 and he was the greatest person that I got to be raised by then came the man who I found out was my father served in Deseret Storm and I served in Iraq and Afghanistan both. Now I pray that my own son won’t have to go off to fight a war on foreign soil or here at home. I pray that we all turn back to God and let him lead this land again. Thank you for all the generations that fought before and will salute from my chair for I can no longer stand.
Thank you for your service! I pray that our sons and grandsons won't have to fight but I'm afraid that we are edging ever closer to a war that will bring back the draft.
My Daddy fought in WWII & my Father-in-law fought WWII, Korean & Vietnam War. I was seven years old when my Daddy went to heaven. My Father-in-law died in 1990 he was hailed a war hero & is buried in Arlington National Cementary. Both my Daddy & Father-in-law fought with Valor for America. They gave nothing less than blood, sweat & tears for this once great country. True American Heroes!!
So very true. As a college professor of American History (and a veteran), I am grateful to impart on young people today the very history, the true and correct history, they don't get in high school anymore.
This is so awesome!!!! John thank you for honoring our Veterans! Can’t stop crying, gonna play this song for my daddy who is a Veteran for Vietnam!!! God Bless and sending so much love to you!!!🙏🏻❤️🥰
My father served in WWII as tail gunner for mighty 8th Army Air Force. Flew many missions over Germany. He physically survived but not mentally - died at 80. God have mercy on our country, if not for us, for those who sacrificed so much.
Love this song; I aplaude the greatest generation of soldiers that fought in ww2. But not only for American’s, also for the Germans, the British, the French. Yes people I wrote Germans. I know how American’s feel about them. But they were human 2. I mean the soldier’s not their leaders. They were forced to fight were brainwashed, but you can say that about any soldier that has ever fought in a war. I know WWII was a great victory for the USA, but it also was a victory for the Soviet’s specially Stalin. I do understand that a world without war is just a dream. But I hope in the name of God, that humans stop viewing other human’s as enemies. And acknowledge at the end we are All brainwashed in to some kind of way of thinking, truly believing it’s the right one or the will of God.
My dad enlisted in the navy immediately after Pearl Harbor. Three of his brother enlisted the same day, for the army. Dad served throughout the war in the pacific, saw some horrible things, lived through hell, most of which he never talked about. When he was dying, he’d say “soon I’ll see the boys again,” and we realized he was referring to his fallen comrades, whom he kept in his heart. I think about him always and try to live the way he taught me, by word and deed, but there are more and more times these days when I’m almost glad he’s not here on earth to see the moral, ethical and civic desolation that are depicted by the media and school systems as normal. Thank you, John Rich, for this beautiful tribute.
My daughter-in-laws grandpa joined the army in 1941 at the age of sixteen. He saw a lot of combat at that young age and he wasn’t the only under age solider. That was the generation of heroes.
My great uncle Tolbert is 102 years young and in this video. (2nd from the right front row). I want to Thank him, my dad, and all the veterans who fight and serve our country. You all are amazing people, and I am forever grateful to every one of you!!
Always amazed at how you say so much with such concise poetry and melody. Keep writing, keep singing, and thanks to all the men and women that keep Old Glory flying free!
You betcha John. Thank you so much for this song. My Dad fought in the Pacific in WWII, along with my 4 uncles and 1 step Uncle. 1 Uncle was in the Pacific and the other 4 were in Europe. Most people just don’t understand, losing WWII OR even WWI, would have meant death to the USA. The Greatest generation are so wonderful, and if you’re lucky enough to still have someone from that generation around, get out your video cameras, start talking to them, record their memories. I have some from my Dad, but very few. Because I always thought there would be time. Guess what, There wasn’t! I cried through this whole song. A great tribute to our WWII Heroes!
As a veteran from Oklahoma, heard this today for the first time and had tears. God bless ALL of our veterans and the ones who paid the price for our freedom and this country!!!!!!!
The Most Important Relevant Song of the Last 50 years. This needs to Go Viral and played in every elementary and high school in the Country. God Bless all those who serve and continue to do so.
Oh, how I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this song!!! Beautiful writing, beautifully performed, beautifully recorded, and beautiful videography! Kudos and thank you!!!
John- I love this! My Father was in the army in WW11 and served, my Grandpa in Army WW1. Proud of both of them with all my heart! God bless all the men and Women who serve to protect us! And thank you for standing up and singing about them! Lea and I worked together and her and Wade did great in the video❤️
Thank you John Rich God Bless you 🙏 my father fought in WW2 in the Korean War and He Said it was a war that shouldn't of happened that we had no business being there I thank the Good lord that he got to make it home and I also want to Thank All The One's That Didn't Make It Home 😢 And May there Family's BE Blessed For Their Losses 😢 God Bless 🙏 GOD BLESS ALL THE SON OF A FIGHTING MAN , LONNIE.
As an Iraq/Afghanistan combat veteran, my hats off to and deepest thanks to all my fellows vets. Many people will never understand the importance of the word sacrifice
😢This song brought tears to my eyes and to my heart💟 God bless you, John Rich, for writing such a beautiful and meaningful song. Thank you, to the Greatest Generation for valiantly fighting and winning WW2 by saving and preserving our American Freedoms. May we forever be grateful for all you have done. May we NEVER forget your many great sacrifices, especially during this current time we live in, so that history will not be repeated.
My daddy served and fought in the Korea war, I am veteran's daughter and my husband served and fought in Desert Storm and I am a veteran's wife. My father in law served and fought in WW2 and he is still alive at 95 yrs old but lost his hearing during the war loading arterial shells . I am a daughter in law of a veteran. The true war stories I was told by them are not good. But I hold my heart and salute all of the 3 most important men in my life. Thank you to every single veteran in our nation. Thank you for my freedom and protecting this most BLESSED nation. Thank you Lord for bringing them home.
Let me wipe away the tears to tell you THANK YOU! This song should be blasted on every radio station, television station, and social media platform today!!! Heck, everyday until all people remember why this is the Greatest Nation on Earth!!! God bless you Mr. John Rich!!! 🙏✨🇺🇸
My granddad was in the Pacific in World War II luckily he came home my dad was two tours in Vietnam one tour in Thailand and one tour in Korea he also came home thank God. God bless all the Veterans, Service members thank you all for your Service and Sacrifice. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I am 52 years old and I have worked for Thacker Memorial Monument Company for 30 years and about a month ago me , my son who has been working by my side for 11 years " yes I am very blessed because working with my son every day is absolutely a blessing" we processed and installed a unique pair of stones for an elderly gentleman who was a I think late 70s or early 80s VETERAN and when we finished the job I reached out my hand to shake his and told him how much I appreciated and respected him for his service and sacrifice and what he said brought me to tears and still does to this day! Please give me a second to wipe the tears from my eyes. He told me and my son that he appreciates the gesture but it WAS A PRIVILEGE to serve HIS COUNTRY! And I will not lie that hit me like a ton of bricks! What happened to the real men who were proud to be called to defend our Freedoms? This man was so humble that every time I think about his words I start crying like a baby! What has this country become????
Canadians were impressive soldiers and airmen and served honorably. I've read their P.O.W. accounts from Japanese prisons in the book 'Pacific War P.O.W.: A Few Remaining Skeletons.'
Ok now I am crying. God bless each and every one of the men and women that have kept and do keep us safe every day. Thank you John for this lovely tribute.
Okay, I’m crying. My uncle Alfred Leon Schellenger died at the Battle of the Bulge in 1944 and he’s buried there in Spa Belgium, Henry Chapelle Cemetery. This was the most beautiful song I’ve heard you play. Thank you.
Absolutely beautiful tribute to our troops thank you John and the biggest thank you to our veterans that have fought and died to keep us doing what we love in the land of the free!!!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'm an Army brat. Daddy joined the Navy at the tail end of WWII. I don't remember when he joined the Army, but one of Mommie's brothers brought him back from a tour in Germany. They were married in 1958. During his military career he served in several states and did tours in Korea, Vietnam, and Germany. Our family was blessed because he and my brother both served in Vietnam and they came back alive. Neither talked about their experiences over there. Daddy left this earth 10 years ago. My brother is living with my sister. My husband, also, had a career Army man for a dad. I can't thank the veterans enough for serving wherever their commanders tell them to go. There are several of you country artists who write such heartfelt lyrics. I always listen to "8th of November" every year. Thank you for honoring the men and women who live with seen and unseen battle scars.
My Dad and his brother along with my Mom’s two brothers and one Uncle of my Dad’s all served in WWII. They represented every branch at that time. Amazingly they all returned home and raised great families. That is what makes them the Greatest Generation of Men. My Dad was definitely “The Man”!!!
Dear Lord, God Bless our Veterans, MIA, and Our Fallen Soldiers 💪🪖🇺🇸❤️🤍💙and their family and friends. Please be with our troops overseas right now Lord as they face conflict. Be with their loved ones at home who will not be able to rest until this conflict is over. In Jesus Holy Name, Amen✝️ ❤My dad was a Navy man. ⚓ USS Missouri last part of the Korean War. We have many family members and friends who have served us well! Some gave all, All gave some. Thank you for supporting all Veterans John Rich, both emotionally and financially. Especially through Folds of Honor and Redneck Riviera Whiskey, Granny Rich Reserve, and your music. I hear the new bank you are a part of is a success as well! The "free speech" bank. l am a big fan of Old Glory Bank🎉 You're one of the good ones John.🙏🏻 Me personally, I pray for peace and the second coming of Christ 🕊️ ✌️❤🙏🏻
What a beautiful song brought tears to my eyes I had 2 grandfathers serve and other family served and my husband is a veteran he served in the Army and Marines ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for your service dear Veterans. You were in the thick of it, and in one of the worst wars in United States History. There wasn't a family that didn't know someone who never came home. My Father was in the Navy Air corps but was a mechanic machine mate II or something like that. He didn't have to fight but repaired the planes used in the war. Handsome group of Patriots here! ❤🎉
Great song. Proud daughter of a Navy veteran and from a family of many veterans. My father-in-law was also a Navy veteran and my husband’s family has many veterans. Thank you for honoring our veterans and our country.
Gpa & uncle- Army (WWII), Father-Airforce, Brothers-Marines & Coast Guard, Son-Navy.... soon to be son in law- Marine...... We've lost the greatest generation with this new generation. God help us we don't need another war to remind us. This song does a great job. -Thank you.
Happy Veteran's Day to all my brothers in arms. I salute you and thank you for your service. May we all meet in Valhalla one day. "This we'll defend" 🇺🇸
I didn't think this song would hit me the way it did. Bur, man, did it ever. Here i sit, crying like a baby. Both my grandfather's fought in workd war 2 & my father was a marine & should have fought in Vietnam, but was injured and honorably discharged. Thank you to all of the courageous men and women whose valiant acts of bravery have given us the freedom we have today. God bless.

Both my grandfather's fought in workd war 2 & my father was a marine & should have fought in Vietnam, but was injured and honorably discharged. Thank you to all of the courageous men and women whose valiant acts of bravery have given us the freedom we have today. God bless.
