Iam an old retired fireman. This song puts into sound the sad feelings that are unable to be said in any words , in 25 years of seeing death in peoples own homes there is needed some form of that surpasses the human heartache. I am able to remember and cry and just say it is just the smoke from 50 years ago making my eyes water . God bless
This is for unsung hero. You know who you are. Thanks for serving your country, my country. If it weren't for our vets and current military we would be doomed. Ilove the U.S.A.
They ALL are more then just a name on the wall. They ALL were someone's son. husband, brother, best friend, clasmate, co-worker. They ALL are somebody's someone special.
Viet Nam disabled vet. This song honors all Viet Nam vet. My tour 1968 1972. Some day God willing I will get too see the wall in Washington. Also the wall honoring WW 2 veterans and say thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service! 💕 My dad is also a Vietnam vet. He served two tours in the late ‘60s, just after I was born. I can’t sing this song without my throat closing up.
This song really hit home after having a remembrance/Memorial service for my Uncle Gary who was shot in Vietnam. I didn't know him, but listening to this song, and hearing how my Uncle was taking from this world really hit home. I can not begin to imagine the pain my Grandparents felt, or their brothers and sisters when they heard the news. He was within 5 months of coming home. In memory of PFC. Gary Heeman 'M' company 3/5
So much more than a name on The Wall, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial indeed. So hard when men so young die, and are loved by so many. I know all too well. Thank you for posting this song.
I have listened to this song well over a hundred times and I still cry like I did the first I heard it. Thinking of the mother in the song, the mothers, father's, brothers, and sisters of friends who died over there really gets to me. God bless them.
This song still makes me cry every time I listen to it. Such s beautiful tribute to those who gave their lives serving our country fighting in Vietnam.
I hated that so called political war. That did not accomplish anything, and cost so many good American boys their lives. Boys who didn't want to go but had to, I hated it..Sorry Mam..
@@Itsmevern12 But that's exactly why the song is touching to me. Those sacrificed without a choice...sad for them and their families. The war was a horrible thing, but my heart goes out to those who were ensnared. Some didn't have a choice, and some didn't know any better..
My dad served and made it through it, but this was one of his favorite songs. I pulled out his camera today that he took pictures with when he was over there. I realized for the first time the bottom of it had a label that had his name and serial number.

For Lt Commander Bart Creed ( childhood friend ) who is to this day, buried some where in Laos! To the 16 young man from the County I grew up in. Thank you!
Thank you. It's been so many years. Would love for his body to be found and returned to his family for proper burial. I knew this man from very early childhood. He truly was one of a kind! Thank you again! Have a nice day!
If you don't tear up from watching and listening to this,you're in the wrong country.R.I.P. to all who didn't make it home and never forget the MIA's.Memorial Day,2018.
This song brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Not only for lives lost in war, but for Mother's (and Father's) like the one the song. We were all just boys over there.
