It’s a shame they came home and were treated so bad. I’m grateful for all of our military and veterans. Thank you to everyone of you for our freedom.

[@ronharsh4309]

Your right.they were treated bad.then when the V.CS started to move into America they were set up in houses cars jobs lived here all my life and there driveing new cars while mine is held together with baleing wire.what's wrong with this picture??

[@julepstillion2284]

They were treated awfully half of them didn't have a choice but to go

[@gianna01michelle]

I used to have a Carpentry teacher who was a seabee in Vietnam. He showed us some slide pictures of his time there. They had to had the luckiest bull dozer driver ever. They were bulldozing a road through the jungle and uncovered a bunch of our own mines that hadn't been activated thankfully. I think he said that they were called butterfly mines. In the picture you could see them up under the dozer and sticking out from under the tracks of the dozer. He also talked about how people would take dead babies and wrap them up with hand grenades and hand them to soldiers and disappear. The soldiers think that they were just helping the mother and would be killed.

[@donnaharrison3559]

And so many of them have suffered in silence. They don't want to relive what they went through. I pray the ones that are suffering in silence find someone to talk to and help them through their rough days.

Don't thank them for their service but instead Welcome them home. That's something they never got!

[@illstreamthat]

I have an uncle on my dad's side of the family who did 3 tours in Vietnam. He said he kept going back because he'd rather be over there getting shot at from a distance than over here getting spit on. It's amazing to me how many people want peace for everyone, but have no interest in fighting for it. On my mom's side of the family, my grandfather and his 4 brothers joined the military (2 Army, 2 Navy and 1 Marine) during WW2. All my uncles were military and so was I along with all my male cousins and 2 female cousins. Any time I hear a patriotic song like this, it makes me remember all the people I worked with that never came back from their deployment and those that did only to be medically discharged.

[@lennapeterson286]

Wow! I remember that time. My older brother dropped out of high school joined the Army and was immediately sent to Vietnam. Laos to be exact. At 19. He recently passed away and I wanted to say a public Thank You to my brother and all veterans for your service. God Bless You All.

I love that you did this! My uncle lost his life in the battle! He was 19 years old. He was an only child and his parents were never the same. I grew up seeing his picture and medal and a neatly folded flag. He saved 4 men before he died. I was shocked when this song came out and how it was attached to my family. Very special song for us!

Love Big and Rich. They have such a unique harmony sound. Ty, I think you would get a lot out of Big and Rich "Holy Water".(because you work with a lot of troubled people) The video is amazing, but the message is special. The song was written for one of their sisters. Big Kenny's sister and others like her. It is bringing attention to rape. In particular the devastating rape of the young and innocent.

[@inspirationworks8357]

Big & Rich have beautiful harmonies. I love their music and songs and I have always loved Holy Water. I know nothing of the story behind the song but what you shared here ! Thank you for that. ✌💗🎶

[@freadadillon4071]

Oh Lord. When you think you have put it all behind you, and shoved the pain down where it won't come back to stab you, here is comes, roaring back, and shocks you back into the hell of it all. This song breaks my heart. There is no excuse for any vet to be homeless, jobless and without honor.

[@inspirationworks8357]

My brother gave more than 20 years to the US Navy and they pushed him out with their mandatory promote-or-retire schtick. When he arrived home in Tennessee, they wouldn't even hire him at PetsMart. Ridiculous that there aren't more reentry supports in place for vets returning to civilian life. But, you are just property of the United States of America when you enlist and when you no longer suit their purposes, when you are obsolete to them, it is bye bye. I don't talk to my brother and haven't in years but that really made me mad to hear how he was treated after giving so much in service to the Navy. :/

[@IdahoRanchGirl]

And they are more concerned with finding homes for illegal immigrants, while those that served this country live in the streets and need medical help, mentally and physically. It's astounding. Take care of Americans first!

This song is expertly written. Big & Rich do not get enough recognition for their talent. And ... thank you for making the point about some not believing in war. I am one of those, but let me tell you, I absolutely honor veterans. Whenever I see someone with the commemorative plates on their cars or hats on their heads, I extend my hand, look them in the eye, and thank them for their service. Regardless of how I feel about the military or war, I do not and will not ever take the respect from those who had or have boots on the ground. I never ever utter the words, "I don't believe in war" or some such statement to those who fought it ! It would be more accurate for me personally to say that I don't *agree* with war as a concept but in the world we live in, it is a reality and I don't deny it. My brother, my sister, and my BIL have collectively given more than 65 years to the military, all Navy. My sister was a Senior Master Chief Petty Officer at retirement. My BIL is the same rank. My brother was a master mechanic and flight deck captain and retired a detailer. I would never disrespect the work they did, their dedication, their sacrifices, or their service.

Great song. But most of their songs are!

[@celiagorleski2716]

Big & Rich are singers of today. This video brings a tear to my eyes because I remember the Vietnam War. It was on the news every night. Soldiers that came home were not welcomed with open arms they were belittled and and received hate.. The war was not popular and in fact it was never called a war. It was referred to as the Vietnam conflict. A lot of the veterans from Vietnam became homeless people. This was the last War or conflict that used to the lottery draft system so most of these men were not volunteers. But they deserved better from the United States when they came home.

[@lesaserrato3575]

I have an undeniable respect for our military. I was born in march of 1964 My dad fought for the united states Army in WWII.

I'd forgotten how powerful this song is. War IS Hell. There are several artists/bands who do a lot for veterans and military, especially 5FDP and KISS. I do feel we need to take better care of our vets. My great uncle was one of those kids who went to Vietnam and came back haunted... he never talked about the war, and was sick a jokester. He literally had me laughing at my grandmother's visitation(his big sister). I asked him them, how was it that no matter how bad things were he could always make us laugh. He put his arm around me and said "If I learned one thing in those jungles all those years ago, it was that sometimes you have to laugh to keep from screaming cause if you start screaming you will never stop". Truly one of the most profound things anyone has ever said to me, that was 14 years ago and I kinda make it my mantra. Sorry for the ramble.

Country artists are wonderful when it comes to appreciating the military.

[@sandydunlap414]

There are organizations that pair songwriters and veterans are paired up, and the veteran tells their story and then the songwriter will come up with a song about their story. These songs are then put out there for artists to listen to and can record. The veteran will also receive royalties for the song. I have a friend who actually did this-she and her three brothers all served. One brother was killed in action in Iraq, and her youngest brother took his own life several years later- because of PTSD. The song was never picked up by an artist, but it is a beautiful song.

We need more people to help take care of our troops. Then and now. No retired vet should be on the streets or be hungry. They did what was asked of them. God bless them.

That gentleman in the video was Niles Harris. The pictures of all the dead soldiers and the Vietnam War Memorial....so sad. And Big and Rich sang this song for him during a visit to Vietnam.

[@kellygnow1]

I have a son in military service. This song sends fear of God thru me

[@gibson9516]

Never watched your channel. Thank you for letting the song play out. This one song should be listened to from start to stop. Thanks for your patience and respect for those who gave their all.

[@Skeagle1]

As a veteran I can say. If someone comes up to r and says “Thank You for your service “ that means more than all my awards combined

[@Jo.885]

That was beautiful. God bless our soldiers.

[@78thilton]

My grandfather, rest his soul, was a marine during world war two. i remember when I was young, I used to ask him about the war, and he would never say a word. it was not until my early 40's that I learned trough his military records that he hit all 4 major beaches in the south pacific where he was witness to astronomical numbers of men, black and white, that lost their lives. Men that he had gotten to know and become friends with. I think of the pain I brought up with my youthful questions and I cry to this very day. There was a time, when a soldier fought for the freedom of the world, not for a political agenda, To me, and many may hate me for saying this, but the difference between a TRUE soldier, and a PAWN, is wholeheartedly knowing why you are going to battle.

those that dont say much are telling the truth (told to me by others when i asked why my family members wldnt talk but strangers wld made sense when i got into my 20's not at my early teens) some demons belong and need to stay in hell

[@svenska81]

Try SSGT Barry Sadler’s “Ballad of the Green Beret”

Jason Isbell - Dress Blues, is my favorite song about service. Would love to see you react to it one day. Enjoying the reactions, keep them coming.

Big and Rich are true Patriots. Country Music is full of them.
