We Aussies, along with our friends, the Americans, Canadians, British, Irish, & Kiwis have fought and died together for the last 100 years, in all major military actions. I cant think of another group of countries that have such a bond, and friendship.

To the families of the 453 British solders who made the ultimate sacrifice Thank You will never be enough. This yank will ALWAYS be grateful, and remember for as far as I'm concerned they died for me and me family.

I hope you enjoy your trip! :) And if you really enjoy history then please make sure to visit Williamsburg, Virginia and St. Augustine, Florida (St. Augustine is the oldest established town in the US and Britain also a big part in colonizing Florida). And I would also check out Ocracoke island, North Carolina and see where Blackbeard met his fate at (you might also be surprised to hear the accent of the natives there). And definitely don't miss out on West Virginia (or the Appalachian mountains in general) during autumn (or year round). The mountains are gorgeous during autumn with the land in full harvest! And hit the bourbon trail in Kentucky and try all the bourbon you can. I can go on and on, but enjoy yourself and stay safe! :)

mraaronhd Thanks!!! Alas, it's a 6 day packed out trip with my university, so the timetable's already set in stone, but one day, if I travel to the US for a holiday, or if I'm lucky enough to be able to live, I'll visit these places, I'll take a rain-check on the bourbon though, not a fan of alcohol!! Appalachian mountains ARE already on my list of places to go, as is Kentucky, Texas, Alabama (being a black male, the Civil Rights movement is something very interesting to me) Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit. I could go on too!!! I'm going to see my grandma and my aunty as well, Grandma's from Jamaica and Aunty's a British American, they left Birmingham (UK) to move out to New York years before I was born, so I've visited there a few times, and I'm gonna pop round for a visit. So I'm very much used to you guys!!! One thing that's surprising me though is tipping, in the UK, whilst we do tip, I've only just realised how much you guys tip. Not in cost of course, I'm not a selfish person or anything, but as a student I'm worried a bit about how much tips are going to cost. Do you think you could help me work on my budget if possible? It'd be great to get some help from an American on costs in the US. Thanks very much again for the info!!!!. :) Much love :)

I served as part of a 6 man British team in a US artillery/Ordnance unit in Germany in the early '70's. They were nearly all conscripts in those days and did not take their military duties overly seriously (good enough to do a job if called upon buy you would not wish to expand on that) The pros amongst them were top class people, many had Vietnam service under their belts so knew exactly how seriously wrong things could go in a matter of seconds - they were at the top of their game and a joy to work with. The conscripts were just teenagers with all the usual teenage problems of too much energy, too much time, not enough money and brains still not fully formatted. Fun and trouble in equal amounts but they gave us respect and in turn we gave them our best efforts and taught them how to drink and not get into trouble with the German Police or end up in a German hospital. There was a brigade sized British unit not that far away and interactions were many and usually on friendly terms (all the British were professionals and gave the US lads some leeway so it usually all had a happy ending).

@@attackonmars5198 Served alongside all religions, nationalities and yes skin colours - only once suffered any such problems considering any of those and it was swiftly dealt with. An Indian lad who just could not and would not work alongside white troops without trying to cause some sort of foment and misery when everyone else was working toward the one goal. He didn't last long and promptly tried to claim he was a victim of race discrimination. He pulled his shit once too often, got a broken nose for it and it was witnessed by a West Indian NCO who decided enough was enough and he wasn't having any more of it. The Indian lad was taken to the MO and not seen again after that. No ideas where they sent him to keep him happy and could not care less as long as it wasn't near me (or obviously the Fijian lad who finally decked him because he'd pushed his bullshit too far) A happy multi ethnic group thereafter it has to be said.

I worked with some Americans and was told that one of the reasons they welcome home their troops so respectfully goes back to the Vietnam War when their returning troops were not always treated well. They were greeted by anti war activists. Nothing wrong with being anti war; we all should be, but these troops had no choice and did their job. Looking back they realized their mistake and have more than made up for it. My dad was a Scot and fought in WWII. He admired the US because at that time they always owned up to their mistakes but like the rest of the world they are all covering up for their mistakes at the expense of true patriots.we owe a lot to all our veterans and serving soldiers.

They showed us respect wherever we went, we went to Aspen and the reaction was the same, they made us feel proud to be ex British soldiers, The veteran's in the US ore fiercely proud of there service and rightly so, its something that will stick with me till the day I die, thank you for making our stay fantastic, however they still cannot out drink us Brits, they tried to (every night lol) but failed miserably, like they once said , "you Brits are the 1st into the bar, the last out of the bar but are still up, fed and ready to roll before us in the mornings" , what can I say, work hard and play hard.

As an American I can say this... The UK and the US are not friends. WE ARE FAMILY. Thank you to the UK for standing by us. I remember after 9/11 when they sang the US national anthem in London. I still have a tear in my eye to this day thinking about that. You Brtis, Scots, Welsh, and Northern Irish have no idea how much you mean to us

+Danny Boy Lefists don't hate US troops. Radical people do, but please don't tar Leftism with that brush. I hate seeing people attack us as if we don't care. I have nothing but respect and admiration for troops of our allies and of ourselves (I'm a Brit). I've never met a Left winger that doesn't feel the same. We only hate war, we'd rather peace and freedom and equality and no-one, soldiers and civilians alike having to die. Don't think that because we fight to end war we hate troops. That's not true and is incredibly hurtful, especially as so many liberals have fought and sacrificed in the military.

I have never the Honor of visiting your country. My 10+ yrs put me in our Strategic Cold War Forces with 27 mos Minot N.D. 18 mos on Guam and 5 yrs F.E. Warren AFB. We respected Canadian ROTC to our base and sometimes the Red Arrows practiced above us. We were a stationary target during the Cold War knowing I would die but knew it was an all out effort for all our countries to survive. 1984 thru 1994 were the most exciting yrs of my life. I tried to volunteer in 1990 but was declined because I had a critical job, but my roommate got to go. Have UTMOST RESPECT and LOVE for our Valued Allies.

2011...I was a USMC infantryman in Afghanistan myself at the time and I remember the 4th of July we just wanted to light off fireworks...or you know explosions to celebrate our independence day. Ironically and sadly a British soldier was taken by the Taliban and we opted to go on the hunt for him instead of celebrating on our forward operating base.... Unfortunately he was killed by the Taliban but they certainly paid in blood themselves that day...I'll never forget it but it felt like we made them pay a heavy price. 10 years later I regret nothing. Much love from one American warrior to our British brother's.

I had the pleasure and privilege of serving alongside our US brothers in Germany, 1969-1972. I also visited Arlington in 1999 to pay my respects, whist doing my Ph.D. fieldwork at the State Department in D.C. Loved the Red Lion pub on K street ... :-)

THANK YOU FOR THIS! What a wonderful Texan welcome for our Brit wounded, y'all! Deeply appreciated by this Scotsman who spent a couple of years on exchange with the 1st Cav Div in Ft Hood and in Iraq on Shield and Storm. Will never forget your friendliness and generosity. Oh and thank you for the many curious looks when I got back to the British Army with a 4x Resistol, two shit kickers a BSM and an MSMas well. Very proud of those!

Josh Mc Thks Josh As you can tell Im well in my eighties now and have lots of memories Im not sorry I lived thru that time because there were so many wonderful people I met. A brother in law (GI) went as an engineer on to Omaha beach before the landings and he was one of the lucky ones to survive. He lived near New York afterwards.

talboters44 I grew up watching the WW2 documentaries & remember hearing something like 1 out of every 10 people in England was an American soldier in the run up to d day & how the troops were welcomed by the English public & they would talk about the great times they spent in England before the war. Over here your generation is called the greatest generation because of what you all went through in the great depression, then either fought or helped out in the war effort, than you had the Korean war & correct me if I'm wrong but after the war unlike in America the recovery in England took longer, so the suffering in England wasn't over even though the war was won. That's why you all are called the greatest generation because of the sacrifices & struggles you had to go through, at least that's part of the reason.

Oliver Newell The thing is they use it to describe the federal gov and such, up north- they tried to have a massive rebellion including the state of Texas shown here against America but were crushed. Britain forced the U.S. to release many illegally captured Southern diplomats and was about to go to war with the U.S. It was called the Trent Affair

***** Yes. The American Civil War was fought when the southern states (Dixie) tried to leave the US and form the Confederate States of America. They called the Northern States the Yanks. The reason for trying to leave the US was because they thought the State Government was paramount to the Federal Government in Washington. This came to a head over the issue of Slavery, which was outlawed in the North but was integral to the economy and social structure that reigned at the time in the south. The south had better soldiers and generals, but the North had endless manpower (with new european immigrants constantly arriving... especially the Irish at that particular time) and equipment. It was only a matter of time before the south lost. In a way, the same fight is being had currently in Europe where EU member states struggling because the don't want someone in brussels making decisions for their country. But unlike 1860, it is unlikely to come to blows.
