Honestly before i went active duty infantry i enjoyed five finger death punch, but now seeing how much they support our troops makes it all the more personal. Ya'll know you're number one on my deployment playlist. You guys might not read this but just so you know your musics going with me in a few months, gonna be rockin out in the real. I know its gonna give me the motivation i may need. Appreciate all you guys do. Edit: never thought my comment would blow up like this. Ya'll have no idea how much this support means. All i can say is i hope you guys show the same support and kindness to your local veterans and other active duty military. Keep it real everybody.

This song now hits differently. My husband met this band when he was in the Marine Corps Wounded Warrior Battalion after having a head injury in an armored vehicle. I have the autographed photo and Military Times article that my husband, SGT Jason Blondin was mentioned. My husband then got cancer 5 yrs after being medically discharged( presumably due to burn pits) he had a long battle with cancer that finally came to an end this summer. I am glad Five Finger Death Punch re-did this song because I already loved it by Offspring but now the song has another significance to me.

Survivor guilt is beyond horrible. Your buddies/comrades in arms leave a hole in you like losing your own child. You see their family and friends on a daily routine. Now everything is a reminder how you are here and they are not. I'm glad a band like 5FDP gets it and makes people aware of the real pain. During the holidays cherish the people around you, especially the ones in uniform. Because one day they may commit the ultimate sacrifice. -Former Soldier

An Armoured Warrior division then shortly dispatched opposing forces in the vicinity; both bodies were recovered. Staff Sgt. Burned died instantly that day. He had a closed coffin funeral and later cremated. Cpl. Burned died shortly after recovery from blood loss. He had an open casket funeral, and was also cremated later. ... Fuck war, man.

Nine month after we came home, the youngest guy in our platoon killed himself. Hung himself in the basement of his parent's home. Everything we went through and he kills himself because he either didn't seek the help to cope with his PTSD, or the rest of us didn't see the signs. I don't know. All I know is I'm glad I was brave enough to reach out and ask for help. Thank God for my wife. She helped me through some dark days.

One of my best friends MARINE, I still visit his place once a week, or more. . growing up, /neighbor/soccer teammate/ schoolmate since kindergarten, he past after his third tour/ deployment with the Marines, the first one he mentioned was mostly on a boat in the red sea I believe with the navy.. he was 25 at the time of his passing, And unfortunately he was one of about 5 Men, that he personally knew well, in his little group (I'm not sure of the term) that committed suicide after coming home back to the States.. What's/was very sad was seeing him not be able to sleep at night, unless I was awake. He would always stay dressed while I was asleep at night, boots tied tight and ready to go, even If we had work at 5am that next morning. Always kept at least one weapon in arms reach, always drove around with his loaded shotgun in the back seat of his car everyday anywhere... Also, several times a day he would randomly throw up, at work, or, at home, sometimes would even have to pull over while driving to throw up. He was a great upstanding person/hero/ friend/ brother/ uncle/ neighbor/ student/ teammate/ HUMAN!!!/ I knew him since kindergarten, And stayed close until he passed away. He was much different upon returning. And didn't talk much about being deployed, esp violence, only would talk about the positives And non violent things. only violent thing he ever spoke of was about the wild dogs they would sometimes have to shoot. . I know on one of his deployments he spoke of guarding poppy fields, the stuff used to make heroin. (HMMM I thought. Oil + Drugs= $$$) and for a while I hated thinking about why they were really there , it ate me up! Guarding these plants that make the drugs that kill our own people, and they risk their lives doing this for us US civilians.) (Or is it???) And told stories of how many soldiers became dependant on opiates while over there, because they would use it to numb their pain and or stress, or just simply recreation for N escape. BLEW MY MIND!!!!. He had once told me children would offer them smokable poppy tar, or opium. And they'd smoke it, many many many he said became addicted which ultimately led to dependency... Sad sad sad. Anyway, THANKS to all who gave anything for our country. Some sadly gave all.. Even tho I necessarily agree with all the reasons they were there , thanks to u folks. RIP! My buddy, MDK, was infantry with U.S. Marines And he took pride in what he did. One a Marine always a Marine is so true. Him and his brothers in arms were so dedicated, enough to go through what many us civilians couldn't handle. Peace n prosperity to everyone in earth and beyond who deserve it!!!!

My dad served my grandfather, great-grandfather, both of my uncles, brothers, and countless cousins. I'm lucky to have had all of them come back home, but the fact I couldn't serve due to a medical disqualification eats at me still some 30 years later. I see things like this, our servicemen and women suffering daily and all I want to do is help. I feel guilty that I didn't get the chance to stand and serve while so many lost, or made it back home and were forgotten. Just because we say on a social media post "never forget" doesn't mean that we truly remember, and thank you just doesn't seem to get the message across. As long as I have breath in my lungs, I will continue to help, volunteer, and support those who signed up and stood up for this country, and more importantly, those at home who waited, and never got to hug their loved ones again. Thaks for the support that FFDP gives our service men and women, and for everyone that put on a uniform, I can't thank you enough. Let's do everything we can to make sure everyone comes home and has what they need to continue to live.

To all who have served, I thank you. To the families of those who have not come home from their service, I owe you a debt that can never be repaid. My heart is with you, every second of every day. This song has always touched me, my adopted dad is a Vietnam Vet and has reluctantly shared some stories of his time in the jungles. Most of my family has been in the service, as well as myself. So I hold a special reverence for my brothers and sisters out there. However, as of November 06, 2022, this song rips my heart out. I lost my wife. I was lucky and was able to hold her as she slipped from our world, but now my mind turns to her when I hear this song. That said, I am set to see FFDP in Rogers, AR in just a month or two and I am terrified they will play this during their set. As much as I am looking forward to seeing them live again, I am dreading this song. Just because I don't want the emotions to come out and play. Now, with the depressing crap out of the way, Thank you, FFDP, the incredible music.

@@darkblade3897 I agree to a point, however good men and women still die fighting for their country. Politicians make those "decisions"and unfortunately and sadly true soldiers pay that price. I don't like the fact Special Interest makes policy. I commend people who are willing to go to a place of war and conflict and get shot at and watch friends die, people, villages and lives get blown apart. They made a conscious choice to do what they felt is right no matter what. If everyone sat back and bickered at the "politics" more death and destruction would follow. Some must fight and some must die. I wish everyone could be home safe and no one was killing anyone for bullshit reasons. That's not reality YET. One day maybe.

Basically it dropped him out of sight of the enemy, but not so the rest of his squad. Has a Purple Heart, but never shows it to anyone.

My father is also, I never really understood why he had guilt that he made it, why after all the fighting he should have regrets coming home. A few years ago I realized it was because if he is there then maybe someone else can come home, if he is there with his brothers they won't be alone. This cover and video really illustrated survivors guilt and really hit me. Your father is a hero even if he doesn't think it. Thank you for sharing, it makes me sick when I hear about how they treated the Vietnam veterans when they came home not unlike that church protesting at military funerals.

This song gets me everytime....makes me remember the good times, riding up in the turret and my buddies nearby smiling and laughing, we were younger, dumber and just wanting to come home, getting through each day with laughter from the simplest of jokes to get by on. Sometimes we wouldn't even say a word the entire watch, just listening to music playing in the background from a PA speaker and the steady heartbeat of our diesels. Made alot of friends, lost a few but gained a forever family in the process.

Thank you, for what you and your fellow soldiers did for this country.

[@fleafarts3576]

25 year US Navy Corpsman, just retired. All I can say after everything is said and done…”They were all a pointless Wars”. But I love and respect all who served with me in them. Our Country needs to stop these and focus on our Nation and especially our youth.

FFDP's cover of "Gone Away" sheds light on the profound struggles with survivor guilt and PTSD faced by many veterans, serving as a poignant reminder of the battles that continue off the field. To our valiant veterans living with these experiences, know that the metal community acknowledges your sacrifice and resilience. We understand that the journey towards healing is complex and challenging, but please remember, you're not alone. The metal community, known for its solidarity and strength, stands with you. We have always been here, and we will continue to be a pillar of support for our veterans. Your bravery inspires us, and it's our honor to offer our support and understanding in return. Let's keep the channels of communication open, fostering a space where veterans can share, heal, and find solace. Together, we are stronger. 🖤

My son passed away on 8 Dec 18.... this song rips my heart out, but it’s so fitting....

[@pierrotlasticot5848]

I'm so sorry for you. I wish you all the strength in the world to overcome this tragedy!

[@maurcoambrose7224]

Tom Marple I’m so sorry for your son passing on

[@Kellenlmt]

I’m so very sorry.

[@JManimal3257]

I’m so sorry for your loss. Stay strong.

I lost my father on June 19th, 2018. I was 20 and I was with my father while he passed on a hospital bed from cancer. It has been the most difficult time in my life, but the best thing that has come from it is remembering all of the great times we had together. It’s hard when we think of what more we could’ve done for the ones we lost, and I feel as if it doesn’t get easier it just progressively hides in the back of the head and it’s always there. As a son who lost his dad to a dad who lost his son, I understand what you are going through but through a sons perspective, just always remember how proud he made you, and how well you raised him. I wish you and your loved ones the best and I’m truly sorry for your loss.

You can't NOT cry at least once from this. So many years later, it still hits close to home.

[@Pizzagulper]

I cry every damn time.

This is, in my opinion, the most powerful music video ever created. Thank you FFDP for bringing your music and care into many people's lives.

[@exsubguy1]

@russ g crap...

[@elenadermenji3492]

Despite the fact that I am from Russia, your work resonates in my heart. I lost my father in the war several years ago, but the wound from loss does not cease to hurt over the years. Unfortunately, many veterans after a while become forgotten for the government of their countries, especially in military operations in those countries that are not convenient to remember, but they will always remain in the memory of their relatives and families. Thank you for your music. It helps me a lot.

[@DeschaineFamilia]

Russian, German, American, whatever. The feelings and the significance is still the same. Sorry for the loss of your dad. Just keep your head down and moving forward because that's what your father would want you to do.

[@elenadermenji3492]

@@DeschaineFamilia thank you. I will.

[@robertluck1325]

Bless you and yours

[@Sixty6Ninety9Six6]

As an American, I respect your father for fighting for his country, he was protecting his family, such as so many others do.

[@GlaziolaNacht]

It doesn’t matter where you’re from, those lost to war is all the same and just as heartbreaking, no nation is superior to another, let my prayers reach you my friend, and everyone who’s lost friends and family to the horrors of war... 🥀✊🖤

[@mad.alice1064]

I miss my brother so damn much. Lost him to suicide shortly after he came back from 2nd deployment in 2004. This world is cruel and cold to our soldiers. I pray for all of you to have a safe return home to your families from deployment.

[@baconsamichluver4576]

I honestly greave for the loss of your brother. Thank you for your kind thoughts and prayers. The struggle is real. Can't explain it but for a warrior the wounds heel but the scars remain.

[@richardc-ex7rt]

I really feel for you. I’ve lost 3 of my fellow Marines to suicide, including one of my closest friends.

[@mad.alice1064]

@baconsamichluver4576 praying for you for continued recovery of scars unseen from battles you've been through

[@Sammiee5597]

Im serving in the navy, and if I ever go to war and get KIA, this is my song to play at my funeral. to know I fought trying, and let my loved knows I tried my best to protect them. I wanna let them know to hope they forgive that I left them behind.

[@cotiaratv3651]

I hope you never are put in that position and you return to your family safely. Thank you for your service.

[@dannyreeve22]

i know im fucking sad now

[@02lucy666]

Beeing happy is something i never really encountered. And after the loss of my mom, the only family member that supported me, back in ‘08 i drowned even further. Sometimes i think im like i can finally let her go, but oh boy, seeing stuff like that, and other various events fuck me up again real bad. Even though im not from the US, i support your troops. There appears to be a special bond, i never encountered myself yet. Hope ya’ll return home safe again.
