This was my army buddy's and my song while we were in during the global war on terror. Unfortunately he took his own life when he came back, this song makes me tear up with sorrow and pride. R.i.p Spc. Simmons. He was just a good ol boy from Kentucky

I picked & played this specifically for my Grandpa at his funeral in 2016. He was an extremely decorated WWII Veteran. A member of the Elite Merrill's Marauders, an all volunteer unit. His allegiance to this Country doesn't end there. About 20 years ago he informed us, casually I might add, that he was a Code Talker during the war as well. Native American Code Talkers are the reason we won the War in my eyes. He was awarded the Medal of Honor for his acts of bravery Above & Beyond the call of duty. He never spoke much about the War when I was growing up & now I understand why. He was one of roughly 200 men who survived hell and back numerous times during their operations to overtake the Japanese. Of the original 2997 that volunteered for Merrill's Marauders, only 130 were found fit for duty when the missions were complete. He had no Heros welcome home by any means. He still was not allowed to enter the Businesses in Harlem, MT. Many of these businesses that proudly displayed signs stating "NO INDIANS ALLOWED" are still in operation today in our small town. At 92 years old he was officially Named the Chief of the Nakota people in Fort Belknap, MT for his acts of bravery. This scared Chief Ceremony had not been done for over 130 years. I am beyond blessed that my daughters were old only enough to witness this & remember this scared Ceremony. My youngest daughter actually participated in the Ceremony that day. Additionally, yes Additionally, he was awarded an Honory Doctorate from Montana State University Northern in 2012 for all his humanitarian contributions to not only the people of our Reservation, but the entire Country. Yes, I am extremely proud to be a direct decendant of this honorable man. Dr. Gilbert Horn Sr., Chief Return's with Prisoner Horse of the Nakoda Tribe. But to me he was Grandpa 💞 Thanks for reading if anyone is still interested 😀

I can't believe I haven't heard this until now. I gave up on Country Music a few years ago because it just ain't Country anymore. It tells a story, like a song should do. It makes me think of all those years ago. Mamaw and Papaw have been gone since 1977, Dad left us in 2002 and Mom left us in 2016. I can't even say how much I miss all of them. This song is what I needed today. God bless those generations that came before us.

They left me strong and sturdy … now to make sure I leave my family safe and steady … knowing they are loved unconditionally and for always.

At my last foster home I heard this song. Every year or so since then, I think about it. Today on the way to my “grandmas” funeral… I watched the video finally again. The line about not knowing what is hiding behind the gray, then the change to in color, made me hopeful. It made me remember that though some days are gray, I shall enjoy the moments in color right now, so one day, I can share of my times with whoever is willing to listen. That makes me hopeful for a better future. Thank you, Jamey✨ May all those reading, be blessed✨

Served on the USS Tiger a uboat in the northern Atlantic fighting German uboats. He was a gunner. His ship was blown up and he floated in the northern Atlantic for 2 days and saw his buddies get eaten by sharks. He made it back to the USA, had 9 kids, and I’m one of his grandchildren.

This song takes me back to the early 90s. A six year old sitting at a kitchen table listening to a ball game on the am radio looking at a black and white photo album with my hero (grandfather). Verse two hits me so hard, my grandfather flew a b-17 throughout ww2 fighting in 8 different battles including D-day. He also had a unbreakable bond with his tail gunner. It makes me sad knowing where we came from, and knowing how hard our ancestors fought for our land and liberties while our leaders piss it all away. Amen and god bless to all who have severed, sacrificed, and died for our country 🇺🇸

I have one last great grandfather from ww2. He recently told me his stories, since his memory has started to go. It was the first time I saw the man cry. What he went through, he said, is something no person should ever have to do or see. He's 93 years old. His generation is passing, and I think he knows his time is coming. It's sad to see it happen with your own eyes. This song will always remind me of him.

The decade of the 30's the US was in it's worst economic depression. So many people suffered from hunger. In the 40's after the bombing of Pearl Harbor the US was no longer playing an indirect role in WWII. The song then transitions over to his grandfather's account of the war then finishes up with his story about coming home and continues into today....this is an amazing well written contribution of his grandfather's table talk of his life!

Just before my friends grandfather passed away, we went for a visit. His grandmother sat down with me and thumbed through an old black and white photo album. She smiled as she stopped on a picture of proud young man standing in front of shiny car. The picture was taken in 1939. She smiled and said "Look at him, this was taken when he came to pick me up on our first date". The next photo was of him, with a group of other young men. She paused, said nothing for a minute or so, then said "There he is with John. John didn't come back from the war....a lot of them didn't". Then she closed the album and walked away.

We have a photo of great-uncle Bill in 1945. He's smiling with the family. It was in black and white. What it doesn't show is the damage of being a POW of the Japanese for three years. Ulcers in his eyes rendered him virtually blind and malaria paralyzed him from the waist down when rescued. By the time of his discharged he recovered from if his sight and could shuffle walk. In the photo he's smiling. Inside he was mentally and physically wrecked. Then to add to the problems, my grandfather, who also served in the war with the Army, comes home with a Japanese bride! The family was either cold or openly hostile to Grandma, the exception being one of Grandpa's brothers, Thomas, and Uncle Bill. According to Grandma, Uncle Bill never raised blamed her for what happened to him, name called, cursed, or even raise his voice at her, but he would not stay in the room with her for very long. His name was was Corporal William Lee McMillan, USMC, Company M, 4th Marine Regiment. Captured in the Island of Corregidor in April 1942. Rescued at Bilibid Prison, Manila in February 1945.

Now, i realize why grandparents saved and stored certain items. Thanks Jamey, and thank you for being to realist artist that showed up for Chris. (Oliver Anthony)

And to now see how our leaders are treating it and our vets just completely disgusts me. Thank you to all those who served and serve now or in the future. I know my kids are safe in their beds because of people like you.

My grandpa was in the first division Marines stationed in Guadalcanal, South Pacific Japan. I inherited his USMC uniform from my grandmother. It’s my most prized possession. The blood, sweat and tears that are in that fabric is mind boggling. The things he did and had to see is something I would never want to “see in color”. He was the bravest and most badass man I ever knew. He was scared of nothing. That war changed him. He left a boy and returned as a man. How he survived that hell hole was all in God’s grace! It screwed him up mentally. I miss him everyday. We lost him in 1995. Greatest man anyone would ever want to know! USMC SEMPER FI STRONG!💪🇺🇸

I agree this is one of my favorite country songs! Once you start listening to country, you realize that the country music stereotype of beer, whiskey, horses, and guns is false and only used in such a small percentage of country songs. Most country songs are about life and how to deal with hard times rather than anything else.

This song also reminds me of my grandparents. My grandfather served in WWII as one of the ORIGINAL Navajo Codetalkers. First 13. He developed the Code. My grandmother stayed in the states and worked in a Factory in California making parts for many air crafts. They were in love. She never knew of what he did in the war until the late 1970's early 1980's. He was sworn to secrecy and he uphold his promise to the USMC. I am PROUD of his courage and he is a true warrior like all that take the oath and wear the uniform. If it had not been for the Navajo Codetalkers, the war may have led a different path.
