This song brings tears to my eyes I love you dad and I hope I’m making you proud serving as an 11Bravo stationed here at JBLM far from Texas and Louisiana
My brother died behind enemy lines. He won’t get to come home. I love him and wished he and those lost could’ve came home. I miss him. Thank you. All of you who sacrificed your lives for us back home to be able to stand.
They played this video at my son's boot camp graduation at Great Lakes. Brought tears to our eyes, I will never forget this song. God Bless America, God bless our brave troops.
Served on USS George Washington...I loved 3 DOORS DOWN..wasn't onboard when they played...missed it...but ..Their first CD was a go to in my playlist in the gym on deployment

God bless all my brothers and sisters who have served our nation. God bless all of our brothers and sisters who never came back or came back not whole. May our country find unity again and may we never forget the sacrifices of all Americans who came before us. Semper Fi! God bless America!
Every time I cry soon as I hear the first note to this song. I think military wives from the 90s. We're going through some hell having to say goodbye to our men and raising babies they served overseas.
This video still gives me goosebumps. Both tours I Never had Family seeing me off or waiting when I got back. Some make think it’s strange but that was the way I wanted it.
For my entire childhood from start to finish the plane at the end (C-5) would take my dad away from me for week and weeks at a time some times for months flying around the world and to this day 34 years later it hurts now more than ever.
Yeah it was a bit commercialized and in our face. I was entangled in the invasion the guys north of Kuwait, and folks made money off of fear, propaganda, shock and awe. No doubt it was good for us troops but it was also a knee jerk reaction and we got taken advantage of. We are still hungover from this twenty year sandbox fiasco
RIP PAPA 🫡🇺🇸 Roy F. Evans 🫡Thank you for serving for our country and thank you to all of our men and women who served and still serving 🫡🫡🫡 I miss you Papa You were the coolest Air Force grandpa on this planet and I love you so much and miss the heck out of you 😢😢😢💔💔💔 Edit: I also played the hell out of this the day my Grandpa was buried, I can still see his whole funeral from the sadness and grief and 21 salute to the American 🇺🇸 flag being folded 🫡🇺🇸💔😢😢😢
Some say that there going to make America great again,and i say to them we are the greatest country in the world we just got to wake the sleeping giant again
The Japanese said that they just awakened a sleeping giant. Right after the attacks on pearl harbor December 7,1941. That day the United States entered World War II. It was a day that would live in infamy. Of course we all know how that war ended.
"Everything I am and everything in me wants to be the one you wanted me to be"..to those who came back physically and mentally less than they were when they left..don't think you can't be more..believe that you can because you are(you exist)..to those who are gone..I don't know what to say..never did never will🥹
We should all do more all our military personnel with out them America wouldn't be what it is today so stop by your naval base or army base and bring donuts and coffee to the guys at the front gate show your appreciation for their sacrifice.
Hold me while I'm scared, Vietnam has there songs and they are AMAZING, but, THIS IS MY DEPLOYMENT SONG. I've been deployed 4 times, and just started to fuck my life up, it's 2024, I'm 50 and I am lost. This video slowed the innocent, but they didn't show the deeeeeep dark side. I was rated, I was killed there, in the last two years I have destroyed my family and anything close to me, lol friends won't even respond because of my alcoholism
❤❤❤. AWESOME WHEN IM GONE...I WILL ALWAYS BE ...IM THE AIR. THE BLOOD IM YOUR. HEART THATS STILL BEATS...FROM PUERTO. RICO ...LIBERTY. RINGS. IN ALL THE SHADES...OF FREEDOMMMMM NOTHING. LESS. THEN. FREEDOM. FOR. PUERTO. RICO
Too old and couldn't go as active-duty military, but I was in the Persian Gulf from 1998 through 2008. then almost 2 years in Iraq and Afghanistan. The American public has no real idea what our military is doing for us. God Bless all of our troops, and their families, I am really concerned we are headed to harder times.
