From a fellow Soldier but diffrent branch and nation, I applued you for your service. What you do is very important. And to the fallen thanks for what you did for your unit and country, my thoughts and prays are with your family, friends and unit mates. RIP Or as we would say in my country when a soldier has fallen, Vila i Frid! Basker av! ((Rest in Peace! Beret Off!)We take off our headdress to honor them who arent among us anymore)
My mom the other day was asking me why I get so mad when people disrespect the flag. I told her, "Mom, if someone loses their son or daughter, that's all they have. If you lost me while I was in, that's all you'll have of me. I don't only love the flag for what it represents, but the sacrifice that has come along with it. That piece of fabric you see there, is the type of fabric you'd get if I were to die while serving this wonderful country. " She then looked at me & said, " I'm sorry. I truly never thought of it that way. " Semper Fidelis.
I got out seven years ago. i lost friends and this video gives me peace at heart and mind to know my fellow brothers were treated well when they were laid to rest
I'll never forget my younger brother's funeral. We somehow held it together until the Marine honor guards folded the Flag. I felt like every cell in my body was going to uncouple from their neighbors. When the Flag was presented to my mother, we started to heal. The Supreme Court may decide a hundred times that desecrating the American flag is "protected speech", I will not, I cannot, stand by and watch a bewitched Leftist lunatic defile that which is sacred to all true Americans.
i understand this guy with the username of "Dickout ForHarambe", i wouldnt let my family die for the goverments wars, theres something more useful called science (and im not referring to the one that develops weapons).
Never going to forget my moms funeral. These are more than just Marines. I ran away after getting the flag and one of the marines ran after me and just hugged me until I was ready.
SEMPERFI TO ALL MY BROTHERS. Those that did not make it back home . you Will NEVER b forggoten. respectfully cpl Andrew ayemin 1battlion 2nd marine division 3rd platoon.
We don't have these in the UK, Usually it's the deceased's friends who carry the coffin. but either way it's heartbreaking to watch a coffin go by dressed In the US flag or British flag.
My family has fought in every war since the Revolutionary War . I'm an Irish Jew , and my family on my mother's side has been here since the 13 Colonies . Don't tell me , I already know . You hate Jews , so anything my family or myself did doesn't count in your eyes . I could be the guy who saved your life , and for some reason you'd still hate my guts ...
