Veterans became brothers in war and peace 

Man.. the end of this video hurts. RIP Rory. Hope is family is healing and his kids are taken care of.

These are real heroes. No veteran should ever have to live in a storage unit.

Probably the best interview of the subject. Thank you for asking those questions. Brought this old Marine to tears

Be blessed Devil Dogs. Thank you for all you've done.

So very profound and moving.. If you never served you will never understand the bond we have!.

It's unbelievable how such men sacrifice so much for the sake of the nation and in the end they feel so forgotten by the very ones who needed them so much to fight our battles ,but when they need the nation to help them get through their struggles, we simply count them as another one on the list to face depression, unemployment and unfortunately suicide.

Military service is 'NEVER FORGOTTEN' 🕊️💜🎖️💜🕊️ ~~ deepest RESPECT.

If you never served you will never understand the bond we have!

So very profound and moving.

Man that hurts my heart May god watch over his family.

Thank you so much for your service and your sacrifices God bless you

My advice to today's veterans: When you return from combat and are discharged, you still are on a mission. your goal is to live life the best you can, your country and family are depending on your strength - still. Don't do it, don't do it - that is go the route of suicide. If you do, you are like a loss in battle, given up to the enemy! Don't ever give up to the enemy!!

You never forget your time in combat and the buddies that you lost

Young man, you are my new hero. You are indeed. You were looking out for Burrow. And I am so glad that the military was integrated, thanks to my dad and thousands of other WWII vets, Korean and Vietnam vets. And they are indeed out newest Greatest Generation.

Don't be sorry, tough man shed tears too. Proud serving with you all, Devil Dogs.

Devon Jones, still packing that RTO and still callin it in on target. Looking out for each other and the team. Mister, you did a damn fine job and that, is , something to be proud of. I hope you can get this and make a difference. 9th Infantry US Army 1972-1982

God damn, l love the men and women who serve have served and will serve in this great country's military! Thank you.

Happy Veterans Day

Just shows you how America takes care of others first, not their Veterans, not their citizens.

Beautiful and patriotic this is what my generation should be shown to get people to enlist

In the USAF for 23 years - always felt good knowing U.S. Marines were not too far away. Respect

What wonderful Americans. I never served. This helps me to begin to understand what these guys went through, but I don't kid myself that I will never understand their experiences.

This makes me hurt for my guys. 13 brothers gone! Find a purpose after service, I know it's hard I have good days and bad, but your life is worth living. God Speed and Semper Fidelis!

This is my unit 2/8. I was there in the summer of 2009. I can say that all of us still thinking about that summer it will live on with us always. We are all still there for each other. We still get together as much as we can. We still have each others backs after 15 years. Those we lost will never be forgotten. While your here look up music artist Doc Todd ( He was one of our Corpsman) music video "Not Alone". Semper Fi brothers till we meet again in Valhalla.

Happy veterans day 🙌🏼

Very Inspirational 🙏

Thank you for real life superhero. God bless yall.

Its crazy how these men sacrificed so much and came home changed forever yet the government treats them like they’re nothing. It’s sickening..

22 vet take their own lives each day. I can tell you from firsthand experience that in the vet groups I’m in, it’s not uncommon to hear from at least one vet a day who isn’t in distress. This is the week before Thanksgiving 2023. It will only get worse in the next several weeks. Stay in touch with father’s, son’s, wives and daughters who have served.

Scott, thank you for sharing their story.

Thank You ALL for Your SERVICE! .. DBC.. DAILY BLESSINGS COMING! .. Thank You ALL for Everything Everyday!! .. The Good, the Bad, the Happy, the Sad, I BELIEVE Everything happens for a Reason and im BLESSED WHATEVER HAPPENS! .... I've been Homeless before and it sucks.. I've Lost most of my Family members and when the last 2 are Gone, WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN!? ...

As an Afghanistan Combat Vet I cried at the end with the suicide of Rory Hamill. Prayers for him, his family and his Marine Brothers. As a soldier to my Marine Brothers and All my Brothers and Sisters who served. We all have each other and many of us have been in that dark place. Reach out if you are in trouble. You have Brothers and Sisters who will be there. Stay in touch as I have with my teammates. NOT ONE MORE, 22 a day is 22 too many.....

Much respect from sweden!

God Bless the Men and Women of the U.S. Military!

Dang you can tell the black Marine at the end was back at the moment his brother died when he paused for a few seconds he wasn't in the room with the interviewer, he was back on the battlefield

I am absolutely humbled by these vets. Whether it be US, UK , German, french etc. these young men and women brought back a wealth of hidden hurt. All our gover7shoukd be doing more to make sure they are looked after. Suicides are still a big thing. To go through all of what they did , to come home and feel it's to much could be avoided in a lot of cases I believe. I really hope these brave people can see there is help. I for one salute you all. But it's not enough , they deserve more.

Poignient. Heartbreaking. Yet hopeful that they all can come to terms with their demons. The remorse of survivor's guilt. The mental wounds that nobody can see heal slowly. God speed to all who served.

Team Rubicon is a great charity that puts veterans to work on civilian projects.

Gosh dam my heart goes out to my fellow American soldiers I love my countrymen I never served but this moves my heart we should learn to respect our vets and not shun them from society or look at them different

I wasnt expecting the ending ... Tomorrow i go to MEPS . On my way to join the Navy and make a difference . Hopefully.

Rest in Paradise Rory

miss the clowns, dont miss the circus. no one will ever fully appreciate nor understand. thank you for your sacrifice my brothers in arms.

Unless you served with a group, trained with them, shared the good and bad as well as everyday events, you would not understand the impact of loosing a brother.

RIP Rory

True American Heroes

War and Peace are concepts.... tomorrow does not come without yesterday... freedom... is a responsibility....

Its not hard to remer. He has respect for family.

I was a 3/5 Marine in Afghanistan..... We lost 25 Marines on that deployment

My Combat Service, will Die with Me. My ❤ Gies our, to Every Combat Vet!

May all those we Lost Rest Easy OEF & OIF Semper Fidelis 🦅🌎⚓

RIP - Rory

Peace........my behind

أصبحنا معطوبي حرب عالمية ثالثة 😊

Living in a storage unit…..the system failed that marine.just like many of our vets they deserve better

Wars destroyed lives of dead and livings. No human shall hurt each other. Peace to all and it shall last forever

Heroes

We WERE supposed to be in Afghanistan, Iraq and Vietnam. Those societies needed the more progressed vibes of our country to influence them. They needed a taste of democracy and freedom... even if it was only for a few years. DO NOT underestimate the value of FREEDOM. Today in Ukraine many will die for it.

Absolutely tragic that Hamill couldn’t hold on to his own advice to get him through the dark days. I pray for his family and his fellow Marines.

So disappointing the government didn’t learn anything from the Soviet Afghan War, especially since they armed the Afghans back then!

Tell the next generation of young people to avoid wars. Politicians will never send their sons and daughters to fight unnecessary wars in far-away lands

No we don't. It used to be that way. Now there is NOTHING but resentment for most of us.

🙏

Some gave some, Some gave all ! We all, all Americans love our Vets. Let The Lord lead you in the tough times. The Divive Shepard - Psalm 23 / The Lord is my Shepard, Ishall not want; He makes me lie down in green pastures. etc. very good. Take it to heart.

I actually know Xiarhos' dad! What a small world!

Semper Fidelis Marines

Yep

Invisible scars often cover the deepest wounds.

Devin* Jones, May God bring you peace and calm the memories in your head. I watched this video and your interview really touched me.

Read Shakespeare's "Henry V" band of brothers speech.

homelessness is a problem in itself, but there shouldn't be ANY homeless veterans. they deserve housing first before all other homeless.

I don't regret my service. I met friends I'll have for life. But we accomplished nothing with the GWOT. To this day I'm so conflicted about this.

Scott Pelley: "Where do you think these Marines will be five years from now?" Col. Cabaniss: "What I REALLY hope is, you know... five years from now, they're still coming together..." **Five years Later**: C O V I D

Gold star wives and children

war has been the dirtiest game I have ever played

Marines reach out to your Brothers today. One of them might need to hear from you. You might need to hear from one of them.

The fact more of these men die from suicide then combat is disgusting

As an OIF and Cold War vet I can tell you I no longer recognize this country . And we wonder why over 140,000 have taken their own lives. What was it all for?

and in crime never forget

I just heard an article that’s states something to the effect of we are making it too easy for Veterans to get our claims. Whoever wrote that crap need to see this clip. S/F

Thank you for your service. Side note: The timing of this 60-minute release suggests we are on the brink of war now.

❤

Live a life that honors the friends that have passed. A life where if they see you from heaven or wherever, they will know they didn’t protect you in vain. They would want to see you in a good house & car with a beautiful family, but more importantly trying to succeed and doing what you can to make the world a better place. Find peace in Christ and his will. Semper Fi, may God be with you

Bless these Marines. Afghanistan was similar to Vietnam. Put out fires without taking and holding territory. Waste of time but god bless everyone who served and died over there.

Rory, your Family have a place to stay in Australia if they ever wish to come this way

I shouldn’t be watching this while on my period. 😭

Yes my little country sent in our finest SAS and others. Yes little New Zealand was there as we were in Vietnam, Korea, WW2 etc. We were also fighting the Commies in places the US wasn't like Singapore, Borneo, Malaysia plus others. My question is after 9/11 there is no doubt that we had to be there with our Buddies from the USA; but virtually all of the 9/11 Suicide Bombers were Saudis. So why didn't we attack Saudi? GW Bush started so many wars! Why did he attack Afghanistan? History had proven that the Greeks couldn't do it, and the Romans couldn't do it, even the mighty British Empire could only do it for a short time, and then the mighty Soviet Empire couldn't do it so what the F was GW trying to prove....he had got all this global support after 9/11 and he had to find a war because that is what retribution looks like! Daah! Even the Russians helped us and the US. And then Iraq and the WOMD? This is what the GOP does to the US and us. And its next guy is Donald J Dump, an insurrectionist, a terrorist, it saddens me greatly to see what has happened to the US as it impacts us here in New Zealand. Donald Trump/Dump would betray the US and us all in a flash. Just listen to the lies out of his mouth! The last great Republican President was Ronald Raegan. Donald Dump is amorally bankrupt human being living off his own excrement! Please USA its not just about your US its about our us.

I got paid to Fight against United States Military Forces in Patrol Base Woodcock Iraq OIF6....I am still here but live as A Refugee from United States in South Africa

"Semper-Fi"

All my hero’s are dead

Wow! So sad. So sad. As a Gulf War veteran I am with them. We should be helping them Donald Duck and Joe Biden. Versus illegals who cross our borders and getting free handouts. While our veterans are committing suicide in big numbers. Disgusting. Shut the border down! Help our homeless veterans!

all of those deaths for nothing

👍👏🏽

On Veteran's day ...the simulation is real

No respect until I see veterans with missing limbs all these guys are healthy and should be returned to the battlefield immediately

✝️🇺🇸🦅

I spent 24 years in the Army. Jumped into Panama, did 4 tours in the Korean DMZ. I was told by a young soldier that i was not a Veteran, because I did not go to Iraq or Afghanistan.

Why so much suicide? 6:00 - you send soldiers into a foreign land as an invader first, an occupier second. The cognitive dissonance of kicking in doors and shooting at people while they're defending their own homeland, then coming back stateside and being called a hero for those deeds while the images of your deeds flash before you nightly, keeping truth front and center. There is one script, just a changing cast of characters: MIC wants $, it needs young souls to grind up in exchange for $, those brave souls serve to protect their country yet then get sent to the other side of the world to liberate (invade) and do battle with insurgents (homeland defenders) for years and years with no victory in sight, all in exchange for platitudes and a quick erasure from history, dropped from cable news and speeches, to forget the losses, on to the next conflict (money pit). Number of U.S. soldiers killed in combat since 2001: 7,057. Number of U.S. soldiers who've committed suicide since 2001: 30,177. All the leadership has to say, during every mis-adventure to hell, (6:09) "You are going to change history." A few trillion $ down the tube, a few thousand U.S. dead, and the Taliban are richer and more powerful than ever before. MIC got theirs.

smh and to fight and die all because of what old men issues...a i wanted to serve before but now I dont know as a disappinted american... that doesnt understand where our countries future is going in.

Today, a lot of people want their elected officials to send the US military to stop Russia from attacking Ukraine or to stop the war with Hamas and Israel, yes the US military could save a lot of civilian lives…but what about when they home & all the American businesses( & News organizations for that matter) have made their money from the veterans & taxpayers..will they actually loyally honor their contracts or responsibility to people who fought on their behalf or will they simply shrug & say “Oh well your problem not mine”
