[@rkkotilley358]

Bill Carney......I salute you Sir

[@toddwagester5412]

And to think I hated history class, maybe if I had a professor like Mike😁

[@kathyflorcruz552]

Revisionist history doesn't count anyway.

[@laurakaszuba6785]

That would have been awesome! I didn't like History either, and it used to make my daddy so mad. And he'd tell me it's the story of how we became the greatest country in the world. I wish now I would have had his enthusiasm and love for Story.

[@rumhave9632]

Work ethic, religious teaching, and honesty, are all profoundly more valuable than a 4 year degree.

[@lilorbielilorbie2496]

Rum Have some of the dumbest people i know . have been to college and have a degree to prove it.

[@victorl.6128]

I have a useless college degree but still have a heart. Thank you Mike Rowe and Bill Carney

[@azoutlaw7]

Thank you Mike Rowe! Thank you for helping us remember ALL our AMERICAN HEROES!

[@jeremiahfoughty1487]

Meeting Mike Rowe someday, is on my bucket List

[@eltrompo83]

Met him in an airport and had a 15 min conversation with him. He’s totally down to earth and a common man. Was a total highlight to my life.

[@sandyg3772]

That would be a dream come true!

[@michelealdworth9297]

Hi there! Mister Rowe please, please keep gracing us with your heavenly voice. You are a gift from God. You have made this world have meaning and grace. I thank your mom and dad for raising such an amazing man. God bless you and your voice.

[@xdboardsurfer]

Fantastic story, Mr. Rowe. Thank you!

[@dustinwalter2264]

Thank you to all who paved the way to make this country and life possible. I am so thankful every day to all that has been contributed and sacrificed. Thank you Mike keep up the good work.

[@eppyz]

What an amazing story GOD BLESS this Man's Soul. The stories he could tell, how much we could have learned from someone like this. Just love what Mike is doing with these videos. I am amazed after every episode. Keep up the Good Work!!!!

[@MadMan-xx8sf]

I fought in Nicaragua. The unknown war. I knew men like this. God Bless them. I honor them everyday. Thank you boyz.

[@Brock_Corb]

Thank you Mike for being an advocate. I'm 24 so I've been a Nissan mechanic for only 6 years now. But even when I was in high school there was LITERALLY a "vocational" school 100ft away, but while in high school that option was never mentioned. Only college preached. I personally found out from a family friend who had done it almost 10 years before me. Its a very rewarding job and has taught me life skills I never would of imagined. And you can never forget about the colorful cornucopia of people you meet, customers and co-workers alike. #MikeRowe #Mike #Rowe #Works -Bradenton FL

[@MikeSmith-mj8tp]

Fantastic story and as always, beautifully told by you. Thank you for sharing his story.

[@tamireeves5158]

A lovely story of patriotism and love for one’s country thank you for sharing ♥️

[@moparedtn]

Mike Rowe - national treasure.

[@genevavredeveld3748]

WOW! Amazing story. Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@tadecker82]

😥❤🇺🇸 A salute to a real hero, who gave everything to a nation that gave so little in return.

[@shawngraupmann4358]

Tim Decker, guess that’s why they call it service

[@rumhave9632]

Mike, you would make an amazing history professor.

[@kenycharles8600]

Great story. Great storytelling. Thank you for your presentation. And thank you for promoting the trades.

[@squibboops9651]

I am in one way sad that I haven’t found these earlier. However I am also happy that I can listen to all of these at my leisure.

[@iba9121]

This one of the most powerful things I’ve experienced in a long time. Mike, you are an inspiration. To me anyway. A combat vet looking for a way to puts his words to paper. But I don’t know how. Thanks for setting a standard. THE standard. The work continues..

[@RealSurfhempster]

Thank you for sharing this inspirational story with us Mike 💕

[@billvetter5328]

Mike, what a great story. Actually brought a tear to my eye. Thank you for the well-needed history lesson today...

[@kathyflorcruz552]

Man alive, Mike. God bless you for straightening out the record & bringing our heros to light.🇺🇸

[@VarietyLevel7]

Love it all. Thank you Mike Rowe & crew.

[@TonyPearl]

What an amazing storyteller you are, Mike! Truly making history come alive.

[@bethhelmly932]

Excellent Mike! Thank you for recognizing this hero.

[@TheNortheastAl]

Amazing story that I never heard. Rest easy soldier. Thanks for doing this, Mike.

[@judebug329]

🇺🇸 Long may she wave 🇺🇸 I am the daughter of a WWII veteran. These boys fought so that we may live as free Americans. The fight continues. Thank you, soldier.

[@claykemper7193]

As usual Mike, outstanding delivery!

[@hughaskew6550]

Mike, you never cease to find the most amazing stories and to tell them in unmatched style.

[@1945jlee]

Thanks Mike...!! and God Bless!

[@pockethole1900]

Mike, you inspired my son, Michael, to start welding school. He's left handed and never showed any skill with a tool, a pen, or whatever but he literally said that dude made his own job through the dirty job show, so I'm going to try. He's so happy and loves the satisfaction of making something useful. Thanks so much for the good advice. We all love you.

[@R182video]

Thanks for sharing this great story.

[@TheRDDDSII]

God bless ya Mike. True American. Keep it up!

[@dannywilsher4165]

I love your videos Mr. Mike Rowe!!!!!! And everything I have seen you do in life, I love that also!!! The world needs a lot more Mike Rowe's!!!!!

[@remalm3670]

... Hey Mike, thanks for taking the time and remembering ... God Bless ...

[@hillbillyharper4008]

May God bless the man and the regiment he was in

[@tips4truckers252]

Beautiful story

[@julie-ateliervongdc7179]

Thanks for sharing the wonderful untold stories! Inspiring!

[@jesseserfling6807]

Another great story thank you for sharing this.

[@KidCity1985]

Thank you Mike!

[@nathanl157]

What a fantastic story, thanks!!!

[@DergEnterprises]

That is an amazing history lesson!!!! Thank you Mike.

[@MyPumpkin75]

Wow! That's incredible!

[@CharlieM1219]

Outstanding piece!

[@russellbrown1068]

Great story again Mr. Rowe. Keep up the great work.

[@louierivera4327]

Mike rowe may dam well be the most level-headed, sense making dude alive! Great spirit and demeanor..epic role model for young men. I know i look up to Mike Rowe! !!

[@ibelieveinangelsyesido7436]

Awesome. Thank you for sharing this, Mike. Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY

[@normjacques6853]

Aww, geez! You did it again....you made an old man cry.............

[@katiemeeeeeeeeek4042]

Made a youngish chick cry too....at work, in front of my peers 🤣

[@MichaelZedJohnson]

I love what you're doing Mike. Keep up the good work encouraging young people to get dirty and chase their dreams.

[@shannonconley5316]

From somewhere deep inside, across time and generation a connection made. My heart is filled with imagination given only to the one who knows the path. Happy. The why I exist. I'll not hide behind the glass and say, "I do not care". To do so would be a lie. The reason I fight is chosen upon principle. When all else would say give up. Give in. Make do and let the pain engulf. Without the will to carry self respect. Without the seeds that make necessary my soul's flight toward heaven. Inside my breast, life moves throughout every rise and fall until no longer. When that inevitable conclusion comes, my will will be that of home. And that the Love we made was everything. For you. For me. For US. As always. Amen

[@barbatloosenutproductions2027]

WOW! ( I wish to say more, but that moving comment, has left me completely speechless)! Thank you for sharing that with us! May God bless you and yours!🇺🇸🌹💖💪

[@billyweston949]

There was Paul Harvey , Lady’s and Gentlemen Mr Rowe two of which a blessing to us all !

[@Music-lx1tf]

Great story Mike. I'm a vet and appreciate stories like this. Viet Nam like Korea is a forgotten war. And in some way I appreciate MOH Carney's story all the more. Though I'm not a hero like MOH Carney is.

[@scottriley1913]

Mike Rowe is a national treasure his fame is long overdue..

[@Music-lx1tf]

Love your stories.

[@andyjones7121]

Mike Rowe is possibly the best human on the planet. He avoids political divisiveness, has humility, is a great speaker, and is always looking to help people out. Somehow fame and money didn't corrupt him, but instead made him better. This is the role model America needs.

[@ThumperLV]

Why is it so rare to hear true stories of valor, courage, honor? Why, in particular, are actual American heroes not venerated in public schools? I thank you for once again bringing to life a story I may never have heard of otherwise.

[@Gonzomedic1]

Your a good man Mike Rowe!

[@wendybryan9857]

Fantastic story sweetie. I am not suprised Hollywood skipped over him in the movie. Hollywood has a funny way of making even the best men nothing but a footnote if they are even seen at all. Love the new website. It is fantastic. The jobs part is great. Love yall added that.

[@HaselwoodCattleCompany]

Man Mike Rowe can sure tell a story!

[@helensarkisian7491]

I love these snippets of history.

[@KidCity1985]

So many mothers tears. I can still hear my father bellow when the man came with the notification.

[@dhealy925]

Excellent.

[@JarJarWookie]

You could read anything Mr. Rowe, and I will sit here and melt into that sweet buttery voice of yours. Have you done any e-books?

[@YYCRCFabricationz]

Wish you would expand Mike Rowe Works into Canada, desperately needed here as well Brother! Another incredible & interesting story, a great narrative as always, thank you for sharing it with us.

[@Semper_Iratus]

Fantastic.

[@joedogmckeel]

Mike, This was the first episode I have seen of this series. I am now subscribed and "got the bell on". As you spoke of this great man I did not hear that baritone voice from Baltimore MD. I heard an all too familiar tenor from Tulsa OK. I am sure you are getting "The Rest of the Story" by now. My goal is to now binge watch the earlier episodes. Keep up the good work. Joe McKeel....... "Good Day"

[@JetFuelnSawDust]

Excellent, as usual!!!!!

[@christinemason2938]

I’m subscribing to hear more from you. In the tradition of “ the rest of the story. “

[@markangles3877]

Dear Mr. Rowe, thanks for your service. I do believe Mr. Paul Harvey is enjoying someone picking up the flag and carrying the Rest of the Story. I enjoy your work very much and hope to see much more in the future. Kindest regards.

[@mamoudamin3721]

Wow Mike, you're going to become known as The Great Facilitator! I only wish that our current educational system could guarantee that the word 'facilitator' won't be misunderstood or interpreted. Still though, as always, job well done.

[@conniemeyers1090]

Mike, I sure love your podcasts!

[@hoagiesherlin7732]

Another great one mr Rowe

[@BillStelling]

love your bits...

[@christopherking2012]

That was amazing.

[@soniaannwillard8635]

You Rock!!!!🙌🙌☃💖💖💖🙏🙏🕊👣👣🕊🙏🙏✌✌

[@jameschandler2776]

This is why you never burn or step on the flag. Too many people died to protect it with their life and blood.

[@robertw.edelmayer299]

What a great accounting of Bill Carney's bravery. Just one mistake he received tha Medal Of Honor. Congress has nothing to do with the award.....thank God.

[@danielsibley2723]

Glory has been one of my most favorite movies. I never knew this...this great nation has so many heroes of every race and religion from most every country, this is what we are made of! Why after so many amazing examples of what the United States of America really is and of all the changes over time that has righted the wrongs are we still using race and religion as a weapon for monetary and vote driven agendas? I pray for the sadness that is our government and that all Americans will realize that we can think for ourselves and stop giving any attention to the media and government and make the right things happen.....God bless America

[@darleenmuhly529]

Tears! 😢

[@farmergirlofchickens8779]

Not since Mr. Paul Harvey, have I been so moved by a storyteller. I've enjoyed each facet of your career, but this I deem extraordinary.

[@x7slim8x]

Love these podcasts sir!

[@dropkickmurphy4114]

Yes, *GLORY* IS a hell of a film. 👍

[@lensperspective9753]

Wow, really interested in it, as a 21-year-old that only has college credit from High School but have worked being a concert runner, gold miner, salesman, jeweler with my grandmother since 11-years-old, concierge, receptionist, bartender, line cook, cashier, pushing carts, speak Spanish, bagging groceries, prospective farmer, caterer, and call center, with everything those jobs encompasses. Sometimes even with all this, its hard to find jobs. Why? Because they want you to be apart of an institution, or a fraternity, university, and etc. Now this program is a program about not being stuck in a program, working with only your hands and head it seems, which is what I have done most of my life, will have to luck into it more. God Save, America!

[@narekarutyunyan9657]

amazing!!!!!

[@jimlasswell4491]

just Medal of Honor Mike; it's not prefaced by Congressional.

[@giannisleontsinis9446]

mike is just awesome

[@scottcped]

Awesome as usual

[@pockethole1900]

Wonderful story. Glad I had a Kleenex handy.

[@rayjones3212]

Another Most Excellent video by you, Sir Mike Rowe. Oh and BTW, I tell the younger generation that if they are willing to work for it, that your "Mike Rowe Works" is something they should consider - other than a (somewhat) meaningless college degree that may or may not do them any good in their future. I'd much rather see our youth go into the trades than sit around and push buttons all day!

[@stevenwiederholt7000]

We learn something new everyday!

[@stevenwiederholt7000]

@Shay Perry You never know what you'll find, while wandering down the service road of life.

[@5kehhn]

Another good one.

[@PJCole98]

Huh. History is amazing... and instructive... when it is factual. Wonderful narrative Mike. I think you should also be a national treasure, but I'm pretty sure you would demure.

[@cbsnews8725]

mike rowe for president 2020 !!!!!

[@bdbensley]

Thank you the promotion of work and workers! Having two Master's degrees, I have to agree that degrees and advanced degrees are not worth it. In fact, I was replaced by people who only had (at best) associate degrees. They later got their BS degrees by working at the university i worked at and getting the courses for free. Please keep up these great stories, but above all, keep letting people know that jobs are available for people without degrees and without advanced degrees!

[@TallifTallonbrook]

Nobody earns the Medal of Honor. They are awarded it for being who they are.

[@strange-universe]

these episodes remind me of something I miss; Paul Harvey on the radio.

[@gonzo5912]

good story Mike.

[@comicsdown4755]

This is really great the future is in trade schools

[@dougpreston3409]

We need another Paul Harvey Mike is the man for that role.

[@michaeldougfir9807]

Just a little tip: MOH. The name of that medal is the Medal of Honor. Just 3 words. Authorized by Congress but not named for them. MOH. Three words only. Thanks for this story.
