My heart ached when that man said it I'm joining the army so I won't have to see my family killed by terrorists Or see a flag given to a mother saying their son is gone I can't stand seeing it and I want to end all of the fighting Starting by ending terror Which means killing all of isis I hate isis with a passion They are not Muslims The ignore the law of tolerance and use the other law for war to pillage for their personal interests The people in isis are degenerates
Luke Fisher war is not about killing people it's about trying to make peace it's not as easy as to charge into someone else country and kill the bad guys
the raising of the flag on Io Jima was a memorable event but the fighting was far from over. A few of the men who raised the flag were KIA during the following days of the invasion. They will not be forgotten, nor will the rest of the troops who have served in the US Military.
Actually, no. The famous picture was taken as the 2nd flag was being set up, so the "real" flag raisers, the first ones, were not in the picture. Got it?
they raised a second flag because the commanding officer thought the original flag was too small/inadequate this is just what I was told at the Marine Corps Museum in Quantico
I can’t believe this videos 12 years old now. I still remember watching this when I was small and wanting to be a marine when I grew up and now I’m in the process of becoming one. Thank you commanderskywalker for giving me a childhood and leading me down this path.
Yes. Respect for the American Soldiers. Not only that, my grandfather fought in World War 2, and he was a hero. Im going to avenge him and join the US Army meself.
april rogers avenge him by killing ppl who had nothing to do with that? it's not that i don't respect him, i'm just saying vegence is not a good reason to go to war, it makes you a murderer...
I'm am not going to be a murderer. I am going to join the army... I don't want to go into details, but people get killed in battle every day. All I meant was that every victory I had was going to be for my grandfather, who was an American soldier. And to get a victory, sometimes people get killed.... Plus, IF I go to war, my reason isn't going to be to kill people to ,it is going to be fight and help my country, The United States of America.
My grandpa served in W.W.2 my daddy served in the navy, my uncle in the army in V, My x husband served in the navy when all the Lebanon stuff happened. He was on the USS Trenton out of Norfolk Naval Air Station. Its hard being a military wife. I bless every day they all came home safe and sound. This video brought tears to my eyes and the song fit it perfect. Thank each and everyone that has served and is serving for keeping us safe in the land of the free.
My gg father was in the Wehrmacht, my grandpa told me he had respect for the us army even if they were enemies, he quote respect your enemy because your biggest enemy is you, I feel sad every time ppl call them nazis, like this movie they might die for the Fatherland, but all the wounds they suffered were for their friends
My..gg was a b17 pilot he gave his life during flight...I never got to meet him only my grandpa and his brothers and sis can tell me about him. I want to honor him by joining one day, any part of the army. I wouldn't care if I died, I did it for my family...thank you all veterans.
Stuff like this warms my heart. It's great to know that people still love this country, even after that we have gone through in the past months, with all the riots and protests. Despite all who have made it their mission to stomp out any last hope of freedom among the Americans who stand true to the colors.
I am against war, but I will always show my respect to those who have answered the call to serve. they are the ones who have had the honorable courage to defend their people and country they believe in.
As an NJROTC cadet Id like to say thank you too all military service members who have fought in any war the US has ever been involved in. Not a lot of people know what happened at Iwo Jima or even know what Iwo Jima is. WWII will be remembered through stories veterans tell young kids. The memory of WWII will be remembered as the greatest generation in the history of the world. I say thank you those who are currently serving you know the cost of war. Being a soldier there's the possibility of not coming back alive. I say thank you.
Amen brother. To all of the service members that made it back I would like to thank you but in person. To all of the service members that did not make it home you will not be forgotten nor did you die in vain.
Respect for the american soldiers. I am from germany and i have to say that german soldiers were heros too. It makes me angry and sad that many people think that all german soldiers from the "Wehrmacht" were nazis.
I know it bothers me too. Most of the terrible war crimes came from SS and Officers while the lower ranks were just people doing what they were told to do.
I heard a story one time about a group of German soldiers in the Artillery branch and when they were told to shoot on towns with innocent people in them they would shoot next to them to warn the people to leave before they were demanded to shoot on the town. Those guys are hero's to me
I am an American and I don't think all people from the Wehrmacht were bad people at all some were forced and others just because there are Americans that are just as bad as "the nazis" trust me. Heck one of the men I respect the most in ww2 is Erwin Rommel because of his battle tactics and his genorosity towards pows or so I've heard
From a family where every man since the revolutionary war has served the military. 3 MIA's and 1 POW. My turn next.....shooting to become a Marine Corps Pilot!!!! Nothing but respect for the men and women that have served our great nation!!!!!
For all the lives lost in war I would of gladly given mine so they can see their families again and tell their loved ones that they love them every night. I'm not scared of death, just of what i am leaving behind in people's hearts
lola darkheart Me too, anyone who does not feel the same is not a true American. Brother ship is what defines us, and while I don't know you personally nor anyone else here, I would gladly give my life so that you don't have too.
looking at the war and hearing Chester's voice... I miss the people who lost their lives. war is brutal.we all have a family.it is like the war countries such as japan, china, American, the soviet union and the germans, they all have a family .and losing your father or grandparents just breaks and melts everyone's heart.human's greed is fatal, more than a gun does.
This is great. Very well done. I'm planning to go into the Marines in two years once I turn 18, so anything based around Iwo Jima was bound to catch my eye. Very well done once again.
pay respect to all troops. Not just US, bias gets us no where. Do you think the 15 year old Germans wanted to be Nazis? Or Japanese men wo had a family want to fight in the jungle? Or random Russians who were drafted by getting and gun and put on the fronts? How about the British, French, Poles, Italy, Etc? No most of the didn't, a lot came back with PTSD to find at the end Germany was cut in two, now half the families (that survived h+ll) can't see their son? Point being respect most men and women on both sides. ISIS is different.
@@Korean_Crayon it's a video based on U.S marines at Iwo Jima so I get where you are coming from but it's not really the place for that comment but you do you. I can understand what you are saying regarding the respect for “all” soldiers on both sides but it's really difficult for me to give substantial sympathy for the Japanese or Germans, specifically their military traditions and horrific war crimes committed against civilians and military targets. Don't get me wrong, the average Joe in there who was forced to fight or was brainwashed I definitely empathize and sympathize with, but the overall military and cruel government they served I have no sympathy for. I am pretty sure you agree with me on that so I'm not calling you a nazi sympathizer or anything. Unpopular opinion: The Imperial Japanese were worse than Nazis in terms of war crimes and what they preached.
This is why we are still here today, because men like those stood tall to defend their allies in their time of need, to stave off an enemy of everyone not just one race, creed, religion or country. R.I.P. to the best generation, may you resting everlasting peace without the nightmares haunting you ever again o7
Watching these brave men's fight for our freedom, motivate me to become an marine and to 9/11. There sacrifice and there love for our people. They will be remember.
If your serving. Thank you for your service I want to become the first United States Marines female infantry officer. If not thank you for future service
CommanderSkywalker , you've hit it on the head with this one , excellent . Next to raising the Independence banner , Iowa Jima raising the stars and stripes is the most timeless masterpiece of photography . It says everything America was about .
I had the option of being a reserve medic, i said no. mainly because of i wanted to work full time in the military. But imagine.. if you're a medic attached to an infantry unit, your job is death. is surrounded by it. Never look down on a medic, because some day you might be looking up at one
You think you want to have been there, but you don't really. War fucks you up. You don't want to see your friends die, to watch as the life seeps from them and their eyes look to you for help but you know that there is nothing you can do to help. You don't want to kill someone, a soldier like you who has family and friends that will miss him and cry for him. A soldier that was just doing his duty like you. You don't want to cause collateral damage and know you killed innocent people who deserved to live out their lives. You don't want to think about the families of these innocent people and know you forever deprived them of someone they loved. You don't want to be maimed and have a limp for the rest of your life, or a pain in your back. You don't want to be paralysed and never be able to walk, stand up or even have children. You don't want to die. You don't want to leave your family forever and cause them so much pain. You don't want to end it forever and never be able to see your friends, read a book, kiss that girl you like or anything else. You do not want that. Be glad you didn't have to be there, be glad that these brave men took a gamble for any of these things to happen, and many of them lost, so that you don't have to. Be glad of the peaceful life you have.
Retardosaurusrex well I'm a soldier now I'm in the army so I'm bound to see plenty of death being in the infantry division. I salute all those men now it's my turn.
VirUsT0xickitten Don't do it. You don't fight for freedom anymore and nor do you fight for the protection of your nation. You will go halfway around the world to fight an unwinnable battle to 'help' people who don't want it. You won't even be helping them, things will probably get worse. You will fight and kill and maybe die just so rich old men can get a little richer by selling weapons and extracting oil. Get out before another Iraq happens (probably also in Iraq) and you end up killing innocent people and destabilizing a region for nothing other than to make other people richer.
Rest In Peace, Ralph Ignatowski..That soldier on the ground at 4:22 ...He was tortured by the japanese for 3 days and they found his body on the third day..they broke his skull in on the back of his head..cut off his ears, cut out his eyes and cut off his nose..broke his arms..bayonetted him multiple times in the stomach..He was only 18..Makes me weep everytime..
I couldn't find a comment that i could like, so i just gonna leave this here as a soldier " i move forward not because of those who are in front me, but because of those who are behind me, at home"
A TRUE warrior, does NOT hate those that stand in front of him, But, he loves those that stand behind him, an respects THOSE THAT STAND BESIDE HIM! AMEN! I wish more then anything I could have earned the right to join them....
belgian peacekeeper It was the Canadians who freed you buddy. Im glad you respect American soldiers, but remeber, the americans where never in belgium, the Canadian army was the one to push up and free you guys!
I liked this movie and the book. Sgt Michael Strank (the real one not the actor Barry Pepper) was my favorite and yes I liked him even though he was killed in action years before I was born. In one of photos on the internet (standing with another soldier), he looked sad and exhausted but I always thought he was still handsome in his BDU.
jesus saved me 1973 when i came home. thank you for helping me throw all this time. thank you for my family. your a awsome God. thank you for all the friendfs i met. wishing you all a blessed day. peace
the book was very emotional. its sad how Ira Hayes died, he just dropped dead when he was drinking with someone at his reservation sometime after the war.
Our Dean, Mr. Rogers Was there when they raised the Flag 3:08. His Nick Name was Buffy... We Respected him and we Loved him! WE knew he cared about us... R.I.P. Mr. Rogers A.K.A. Buffy! Vintage High, Napa Ca.
I dunno what to say after watching this! My grandpa fought ww2 in Burma against Japan. He was a tough man so he survived the war. Now I am proud that I am a grandson of a brave ww2 veteran. Love to all from India.
the 2 movies are great..........................................................................................soo many died on this small volcanic island !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
When you were standing in the wake of devastation When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown And with the cataclysm raining down, insides crying save me now You were there impossibly alone. Do you feel cold and lost in desperation You build up hope but failure's all you've known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go, let it go. And in the burst of light that blinded every angel As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars You felt the gravity of temper grace falling into empty space No one there to catch you in their arms Do you feel cold and lost in desperation You build up hope but failure's all you've known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go, let it go. Do you feel cold and lost in desperation You build up hope but failure's all you've known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go, Let it go Let it go Let it go Let it go Do you feel cold and lost in desperation You build up hope but failure's all you've known Remember all the sadness and frustration And let it go, let it go.
The ultimate goal of the american people is world peace. We will negotiate for it, pray for it and fight for it but we will never surrender for it, now or ever. We are so often told that the martyrs of history were the poor dying for the rich. I can attest, this is not to case. These martyr were not fools and most of them choose to pay the ultimate price to liberate those oppressed. We can never allow their sacrifices to be in vain. They created america which is the best hope on earth for free men and if we lose it, then we will take the first steps into a thousand years of darkness RONALD REAGAN - FREEDOM IS ONLY EVER ONE GENERATION AWAY FROM BEING LOST.
I love my country and the people that protect it, but we have to remember the people who have the grit and courage to volunteer to lay down their lives to keep us safe. It pisses me off when I hear about people who say otherwise😕. This song made me cry the first time I listened to it😢stuff like this gives me the chills and hits me hard emotionally
One of the best movies I have ever seen I have never cried at a movie but I cried twice during this movie. I have seen many war films and also watched miniseries like Band of Brothers and The Pacific but this was just amazing.
A letter from a soldier on the Europe front in the WW2 that read. "We Trained Together For Over Four Years, For Only To Lose More Than Half Of Us" that was from a letter from a man that took part in initial assault on the beaches of Normandy that 78% of the men fell in the first few hours of the battle.
Clemson Tigers Although he was on the german side (which I do not support)You're father has done a great service to his country as he fought in what he believed for.
Isai Torres will you adore my actions if I condemn you an underhuman and slay you like you are nothing? Imagine your offspring writing the same bullshit you wrote. But he believed he was right in murdering, bruh, respect
Dear CommanderSkywalker93, every time I feel bad or just out ouf luck, I watch your great video. It gives me so much, I really like the spirit in it. After I finished my education to become a male nurse I'd love to join the german Bundeswehr and fight for my country and my people. Watching your video makes me feel upset about my few things I reached till now, compared to the soldiers of the 2nd WW...
We, did so much wrong in the Past, but the new Generation, did it not we respect the WW2 and hopefull learned some thing. Me for myself hate what we have done. But im 29y im not a fucking nazi im a proud german like each other one is proud of his coutry or State. I'm sorry for that what happened and full respect for all the Soldiers from the past
its not ur fault. but i give respect and a second chance to everyone. i hope everybody learned something from then. god bless america and germany and the rest of europe:)
very good combination of the song and vid.......but i still dont know what acturaly makes me feel like crying in this song when looking and listening to dis song.u just got 1 more subscriber dude well done !!!!!! ;) (happy 4 u)
"Doc, they killed me."
Can't get any deeper than that.
My heart ached when that man said it
I'm joining the army so I won't have to see my family killed by terrorists
Or see a flag given to a mother saying their son is gone
I can't stand seeing it and I want to end all of the fighting
Starting by ending terror
Which means killing all of isis
I hate isis with a passion
They are not Muslims
The ignore the law of tolerance and use the other law for war to pillage for their personal interests
The people in isis are degenerates
Luke Fisher British Army for me. good luck man
+James Stimson same here, Harrogate next year or year after hopefully
Luke Fisher war is not about killing people it's about trying to make peace it's not as easy as to charge into someone else country and kill the bad guys

+Brasiel ah OK sorry I misunderstood

I had the option of being a reserve medic, i said no. mainly because of i wanted to work full time in the military. But imagine.. if you're a medic attached to an infantry unit, your job is death. is surrounded by it. Never look down on a medic, because some day you might be looking up at one
That is true Jacob
Emotional video since have and know a lot of vets. Salute you; AMEN
Wow this video is amazing America 🇺🇸 is Great. I don’t know if it’s still the same today as it was back then…
This song was perfect !
let us never forget the brave men who fought, not just in this War, but all conflicts to ensure us peace back home,
treat soldiers with kindness for they've seen things that changed them
Hi all soldiers thank you for all your service on this military RUclips channel and have a blessed day today. And everyday
one of the best music videos ive seen, well done!!
rouge gamer err no it wasn't the music was shit the video was great
My gg uncle served over in D-Day Normandy R.I.P Leonard Brennan. I visit his grave last night with my little bro.
Kinda Wish I could of been there I don't know why, But I wish I was.
You think you want to have been there, but you don't really. War fucks you up. You don't want to see your friends die, to watch as the life seeps from them and their eyes look to you for help but you know that there is nothing you can do to help. You don't want to kill someone, a soldier like you who has family and friends that will miss him and cry for him. A soldier that was just doing his duty like you. You don't want to cause collateral damage and know you killed innocent people who deserved to live out their lives. You don't want to think about the families of these innocent people and know you forever deprived them of someone they loved. You don't want to be maimed and have a limp for the rest of your life, or a pain in your back. You don't want to be paralysed and never be able to walk, stand up or even have children.
You don't want to die. You don't want to leave your family forever and cause them so much pain. You don't want to end it forever and never be able to see your friends, read a book, kiss that girl you like or anything else. You do not want that.
Be glad you didn't have to be there, be glad that these brave men took a gamble for any of these things to happen, and many of them lost, so that you don't have to. Be glad of the peaceful life you have.
+Retardosaurusrex very well said , what i was thinking when reading that comment.
Retardosaurusrex well I'm a soldier now I'm in the army so I'm bound to see plenty of death being in the infantry division. I salute all those men now it's my turn.
VirUsT0xickitten Don't do it. You don't fight for freedom anymore and nor do you fight for the protection of your nation. You will go halfway around the world to fight an unwinnable battle to 'help' people who don't want it. You won't even be helping them, things will probably get worse. You will fight and kill and maybe die just so rich old men can get a little richer by selling weapons and extracting oil. Get out before another Iraq happens (probably also in Iraq) and you end up killing innocent people and destabilizing a region for nothing other than to make other people richer.
Retardosaurusrex Gorge fucking Soros profits off of war
Rest In Peace, Ralph Ignatowski..That soldier on the ground at 4:22 ...He was tortured by the japanese for 3 days and they found his body on the third day..they broke his skull in on the back of his head..cut off his ears, cut out his eyes and cut off his nose..broke his arms..bayonetted him multiple times in the stomach..He was only 18..Makes me weep everytime..
I couldn't find a comment that i could like, so i just gonna leave this here as a soldier " i move forward not because of those who are in front me, but because of those who are behind me, at home"
A TRUE warrior, does NOT hate those that stand in front of him, But, he loves those that stand behind him, an respects THOSE THAT STAND BESIDE HIM! AMEN! I wish more then anything I could have earned the right to join them....
If you are a real American army (guessing via uniform camo) thank you for your service. as a future marine Semper fi oorah.
God Bless Each And Every Soldier! Past And Present! And Please Let’s Not Forget Our Innocent Interned Citizens As Well! 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🌟✨😔

Pirate_of_Oakland America
belgian peacekeeper It was the Canadians who freed you buddy. Im glad you respect American soldiers, but remeber, the americans where never in belgium, the Canadian army was the one to push up and free you guys!
I liked this movie and the book. Sgt Michael Strank (the real one not the actor Barry Pepper) was my favorite and yes I liked him even though he was killed in action years before I was born. In one of photos on the internet (standing with another soldier), he looked sad and exhausted but I always thought he was still handsome in his BDU.
the few the proud MARINES semper fi oorah
all i can say to you guys is great job!!!!!! i am a 80's vet with family that did not come home thank you for a great job.
My uncle was in Iwo Jima and was the first wave in
God bless Your uncle and if he is still alive thank him for his services for me.
jesus saved me 1973 when i came home. thank you for helping me throw all this time. thank you for my family. your a awsome God. thank you for all the friendfs i met. wishing you all a blessed day. peace
I'm a Canadian, but seeing our brothers hoist their flag in the air like that is perfection!
DAMN!!! That was beautiful! Rest In Peace to those American Soldiers that died in that Battle for 1 Island!
the book was very emotional. its sad how Ira Hayes died, he just dropped dead when he was drinking with someone at his reservation sometime after the war.
Our Dean, Mr. Rogers Was there when they raised the Flag 3:08. His Nick Name was Buffy... We Respected him and we Loved him! WE knew he cared about us... R.I.P. Mr. Rogers A.K.A. Buffy! Vintage High, Napa Ca.
God Bless America.
respect from belgium! Much respect for the allied soldiers Who fought in both world wars! :)
These are true heroes praise for them saving your lives 😭😭😭😭 I was crying 2 because my brother iz in the marines 😭😭😭😢😢
I dunno what to say after watching this! My grandpa fought ww2 in Burma against Japan. He was a tough man so he survived the war. Now I am proud that I am a grandson of a brave ww2 veteran. Love to all from India.
the 2 movies are great..........................................................................................soo many died on this small volcanic island !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
about American soldiers and other nations, all soldiers are heroes, I'm from Brazil and I love stories about war and love Linkin Park.
I wish I could have been there to fight in that war I know it might sound stupid but i just wish i was there
we owe our lives to these men...hats off to all of them...
My Grand Father Died here at Iwo Jima, Japan! During World War ll
Rens John sadness
When you were standing in the wake of devastation
When you were waiting on the edge of the unknown
And with the cataclysm raining down, insides crying save me now
You were there impossibly alone.
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go, let it go.
And in the burst of light that blinded every angel
As if the sky had blown the heavens into stars
You felt the gravity of temper grace falling into empty space
No one there to catch you in their arms
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go, let it go.
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go,
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
You build up hope but failure's all you've known
Remember all the sadness and frustration
And let it go, let it go.
Well,just watching this made me think about my grandpa and i balled my eyes out
From those of us that have 'been there' ............... Nicely done!Thank you for a great video!
this movie made me tear up and cry a bit...or a lot
The ultimate goal of the american people is world peace. We will negotiate for it, pray for it and fight for it but we will never surrender for it, now or ever. We are so often told that the martyrs of history were the poor dying for the rich. I can attest, this is not to case. These martyr were not fools and most of them choose to pay the ultimate price to liberate those oppressed. We can never allow their sacrifices to be in vain. They created america which is the best hope on earth for free men and if we lose it, then we will take the first steps into a thousand years of darkness

mesmo eu sendo Br, esse vídeo é de emocionar mano a todos e co. essa música mds tô chorando igual a um bebê
Davi lucker eu tbm
I love my country and the people that protect it, but we have to remember the people who have the grit and courage to volunteer to lay down their lives to keep us safe. It pisses me off when I hear about people who say otherwise😕. This song made me cry the first time I listened to it😢stuff like this gives me the chills and hits me hard emotionally
Thank those brave men who died for us
One of the best movies I have ever seen I have never cried at a movie but I cried twice during this movie. I have seen many war films and also watched miniseries like Band of Brothers and The Pacific but this was just amazing.
Sorry to ask but what is the movie called
+Jacob Stout flag of our feathers
+gabriel goates thx
Merry Christmas all brave men, Salute you all. I hope you have a great Christmas with your families!
A letter from a soldier on the Europe front in the WW2 that read. "We Trained Together For Over Four Years, For Only To Lose More Than Half Of Us" that was from a letter from a man that took part in initial assault on the beaches of Normandy that 78% of the men fell in the first few hours of the battle.
Us Army 75th Ranger brigade Infantry Hoorah!
This is the 2nd I think.
Always pissed your pants when we shouted "TIGER!!" .
Btw.
I'm the tiger
It makes me cry to see what our boys had to go through and come home and expect nothing!
My great grandpa served in the Germany 🇩🇪 war and got shot in the head and survived now he is dead
Clemson Tigers Although he was on the german side (which I do not support)You're father has done a great service to his country as he fought in what he believed for.
I miss him 1-27-2003
Isai Torres will you adore my actions if I condemn you an underhuman and slay you like you are nothing? Imagine your offspring writing the same bullshit you wrote. But he believed he was right in murdering, bruh, respect
he didn't kill people he stopped hitler
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SEVERS AND GOD BLESS AMERICA :3
Best movie ever. Best book ever.
Thanks Link Park. R. I. P. CB.

Dear CommanderSkywalker93,
every time I feel bad or just out ouf luck, I watch your great video. It gives me so much, I really like the spirit in it. After I finished my education to become a male nurse I'd love to join the german Bundeswehr and fight for my country and my people. Watching your video makes me feel upset about my few things I reached till now, compared to the soldiers of the 2nd WW...
We, did so much wrong in the Past, but the new Generation, did it not we respect the WW2 and hopefull learned some thing. Me for myself hate what we have done. But im 29y im not a fucking nazi im a proud german like each other one is proud of his coutry or State. I'm sorry for that what happened and full respect for all the Soldiers from the past
its not ur fault. but i give respect and a second chance to everyone. i hope everybody learned something from then. god bless america and germany and the rest of europe:)
And the Rest of the world. Thanks for this comment
your welcome
:)
i hope the rest of the world will learn cuz this WWIII is a big deal. Long live the world:)
Paliatschi Ranukai We don't regard you as a Nazi, we see you as a friend and ally. Only the twisted ones with short memories see you as a Nazi.
Thank you! Im just glad I get the chance to become a marine and protect this great country of yours and our friends and family.
To the greatest generation from generation X: your children might have forgotten your sacrifice, but your grandchildren will never forget!
