This is the best tribute I have ever seen on KZbin Ed. Every piece of rolling is absolutely incredible. Thank you for taking the time to make this beautiful video. Your masterpiece brought me to tears thinking about my grandfather and uncles and how they contributed to our freedom. My Uncle Bucky never came home. I have subscribed to your channel. 💯❤️😊 Frank

Thank you very much. I greatly appreciate your kind remarks. I understand your feelings regarding your grandfather and Uncle. I'm sorry for your loss. I fly the P-38 over my layout because that's the plane my brother flew in WWII. It warms my heart to know my simple salute touches folks such as yourself. Thanks for subscribing

Outstanding Ed'.. I love it.. what a display you have of military rolling stock. Never realized you purchased all those WW2 box cars and ordnance equip. You are indeed a true American Patriot, I am so proud that you are friend of mine'.. Only a hand full of WW2 Vets left. If not for them, America, and the free world would have a complete different description... Thanks Ed for taking the time to put this up'.. Nice work''. 👍👍👌👌

Thanks, Ted. It is surprising how a collection grows one purchase at a time over time...(Sheesh, I sound like Kamala..) 🙂 Kidding aside, I'm humbled by your comments. I too am proud to have you as a friend...you mentor me in the hobby, and remind me, there is hope for our country because men like you, who wore the uniform and sacrificed for our country continue to set an example for all who follow.

David, than you so much for your comment. The story you told is quite moving and as you noted, it could be repeated thousands of time by thousands of grateful, humble Americans. I was deeply touched by the way you expressed the contributions made, the impacts and consequences. You are so right to point out Billy Ray Cyrus's song. I will heed your request and be sure to repost this video every year. Thank you again and please know I am eternally grateful to your Grandpa. God Bless.
