[@SheilaShropshire]

Thank you to all that have served,,,tried to talk my son out of serving after graduating high school before 911 , but he stood Tall and told me it was his duty to serve his country… I felt an inch tall and told him how proud I was of him and supported him for 4 long , long years,,, am still so proud to this day love him much

[@Tiger.Lilies]

My Sister called me up today and told me to listen to this song on u tube! I'm so Glad I did! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this song! The Lyrics are True and I could not have quoted them any better than James Otto did! I'm an Army wife 4yrs and going on. we have 2 "welcome Home" babies! I thank God for bringing my husband home safe from everyone of his deployments, and I thank my Husband for being strong enough to Fight!

[@tamara8562]

This song makes me think of a friends' husband who gave his life in Afg of March 2010. Still can't think of him without crying but I am so thankful that there are men (and women) out there who are willing to give their life for this country. I am proud Marine Wife and am so proud of my husband for the risk he takes to serve this country. Oorah!

[@23Jordansmom]

My son Jordan has been in the Air Force for 5 year (1 year left) and I am so incredibly proud of his service to our country. He spent a tour in Afghanistan a year and a half ago, said he would never tell me what he saw there......breaks my heart. I love him so much!

[@K9Equine23]

I am a Marine wife, my husband is depolyed. I heard this song while I was driving today and had to pull over because I was crying so hard I could no longer see the road. My husband's unit has lost many men and he and I many friends. Your song came at just the right time for me and I have shared it with many other wives and mothers who have lost their sons. Thank you for this song. To any who feels this song is wrong, I wish you would leave the United States of America for anther country.

[@elm0788]

SO PROUD OF EVERY SINGLE SOLDIER FROM THIS COUNTRY! I met James Otto at Tobys Keiths Bar and grill in MN last fall!! SUCH A NICE GUY!! country music is forever going to be my FAVORITE no matter what ANYBODY says!!

[@ashleytodd9623]

i'm a seventeen year old girl, who has yet to know what she inspires to be in this world. but without a doubt, i know that i'm going to be a supportive sister to my brother who serves in our army. he and all the soldiers of the usa, are the reason that i'm able to do what i do. it's reasons like them them, that i love the land i live on. this christmas, i don't want presents. i want my soliders safe.

[@alisahmoody]

This means so very much to me as my son is serving in the Special Forces in Pakistan this Christmas and possibly for a year. I miss him dearly and pray he returns home with his team and many others soon. God Bless them each one and their families who miss them and worry back home. Thanks James for pouring your heart out on this one. I've passed it around and WILL buy your CD asap.

[@montaguewebworks]

James get's it...from my grandfather to my father to myself...what a song. Godbless those who serve in silence for our freedoms. Fight for our families, and break their own. God will judge the wicked, and lay compassion on those who sacrifice their lives. There is no peace in war, only death. That's where our prayers come in, for all who die, no matter the side. I pray for children, no matter whose. They all deserve fathers and mothers.

[@TheWoodbineProcessor]

James, the music is touching. Forget the fascists, the Tea Party-ists, the Dems, The Repubs....as an American, I am touched. As an Irish Catholic, I can protest to the life of God in my world....as the grandson and friend of Veterans, this song is an anthem. Screw the sides, the parties....let's talk about real people who sacrifice. Bravo, man. Bravo.

[@muttbiker]

Not necessarily. Maybe they just don't like pandering, disingenuous bullshit.

[@Sandi142012]

Remember the fallen and pray for the ones still fighting and the ones now home though they still fight everyday. I thank every soldier because none of you have to but chose to fight for our freedom. God bless every single one of you

Been listening to this for at least 10 years when I came back from the USAF (2009 - 2012) being medically discharged and my cousin asked me to download a complication CD and this was on it.

@CecileyBH Ma'am, from a fellow Marine, I whole-heartedly wish to express sympathies and condolences, from on behalf of myself and my family. Im deeply saddened by your loss. I know there is nothing I can say to take away your pain, but I hope you know, that at least, he no longer feels pain, and no one can hurt him anymore. I cannot say Im sorry for your loss enough, but I hope you may find solace and comfort in knowing you are not alone, and the sacrifice you have made does not go unnoticed.
