Moving ans stiring. I appriciate very much the efforts and heart put into the video and song. As one who gave some (and some give all) I know the true meaning of your message. Many Americans have no clue and never will, until; Until they give to God and Country for four or more years. A small price to pay for the "Freedoms" you all enjoy. Once paid, you know that freedom is not what you once beleived it was. Once in combat, you always know the price of freedom. I pray all never have to know, really know, but those of us who do, will never forget. A fine tribute. Thank-you. "Rock of The Marne"

It's one thing to "sing and strum a guitar" about freedom, we got lots of those kind of liberal American freedom loving "free loaders" out there! When will those "singers and strummers" turn their songs and guitars in for a rifle?! The answer to that one is easy, "NEVER"!!! Because your Dad, Brother or some family member served in the Armed Forces of the United States of America doesn't give you "free loaders" a free pass to the freedoms and way of life that many thousands of us have served, fought and died for!!!

This is the best video i have seen in a long time. My father and several brothers served in the armed forces. I am so glad that they were never in during war time, but I know if they had been they would have done their job just like the men and women are doing now. I support them in every way. Keep doing what you need to do and I pray they all come home soon and safe.

BOOTS ON THE GROUND? “Political correctness” Seems to be the thing these days The politicians send them there But, it's the Soldier who pays. These folks are our neighbors And Sons and Daughters, too Some are Moms and Dads Or may be a Friend to you. They are really human beings Sent to fight and maybe even die They're more than, “Boots on the ground.” At the least, to you and I! But those who send the orders And the politicians in DC Seem to only count the numbers Of body counts and casualty. They are somebody's loved one They'll be missed when they are gone More than a number on a list That just goes on and on and on. We need to make those in power Realize the Soldiers plight For calling them, “Boots on the ground.” Just really is not right. So, in the name of “correctness” All should call them what they are Troops and Warriors who protect us Both here at home and afar. Not respected as they should be And it's time all came around To knowing all those Heroes are More than just, “Boots on the ground.” Del “Abe” Jones

Can I get this video to pass around my school...I know a few people who need to watch this, and maybe if i can get the school to put it in our morning news, they might stop and think about what they are saying. If i could get this video that would be awesome thanks

Wow is right, I got chills all over again. I support President bush, the troops and the mission. That unified support is the only REAL support there can be. To liberals like Daren King who try to pick and choose their support, you are fake phonies and are doing a huge disservice to our country and troops!! Don't you idiots understand that the toppos choose voluntarily to go into battle, even for dolts like you who will never get it?? This has nothing to do with President Bush,but your buddy clinton who you foolishly suppoprt so vihamently, who actually got us into this mess, who caused 911 by not getting Bin Laden when he had the chance in the nineties. Get on your knees every day and thank God you live in a country where you can be so ignorant and carefree and believe what the communist media tells you, all because of our nations intelligence, military and a true commander in chief that doesn't stick out his thumb in the air to see which way the wind blows before he does what the public tells him to!!
