2 things u didn't mention. The homless vet being arrested had the same sevice tattoo, and they uncuffled him and gave him respect. The other was the well dressed black man recognized the homless vet, and told him look at me... u saved my life. Thats military brotherhood in a nut shell. They are a family, beyond any race or religion. Its about taking care and protecting the one nxt to you. Very powerful video. Thank u for watching it.

As a veteran who's the son of a veteran, my father served 21 years in the Army first stationed in West Berlin during the Airlift in '49-'50 and last served in Vietnam during the Tet offensive in '67-'68, this hits home. I spent 16 years in the Marine Corps straight out of high school in 1976. I've served on active duty and reserves. I volunteered to return to active duty during the 1st Gulf War. During my time I've seen the tragedy and consequences of war and loss afterwards. I've been a part of a number of funeral details of Marines who passed that served from World War II, Korea, Vietnam and the Cold War, including burying 2 brothers killed in the Marine Barracks bombing in Beruit in 1983. If you see someone moving slowly and deliberately when you're out and around, if they're wearing a service cap or t-shirt or jacket, thank them and welcome them home. I do every chance I can.

Thank you for your service! One of my best friends that I grew up with took his on life after coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan. And my older brother did 3 tours. After he came home from the last tour, he tried drinking himself to death. I took alot of support and effort for him before he decided he needed help. He is doing great today thank God. I cannot watch this video without crying because it brings to life so many powerful memories of what I went through to bring him back from the edge. I wish that I could have been able to help my friend. Again thank you for your service.

I’ve read a lot of military history books partly my own country of britian other part of American vets, what you all went through over can’t be describe in any way by me cause I have never experienced it myself but going off what the books say all the time sounds very very tough, anerica is getting far far worse with the wokeness and the increase in drug use especially in California, I hope you’ve never ended up homeless or on the streets addicted to drugs and hope you never do in the future

As a Veteran myself, this song always hits hard. Especially because i've been homeless before.

[@STP-Gaming13]

Im a disabled combat vetern. I was homeless for 6 years straight. I lost contact with my family for 7 years. My daughters mom ran away before my daughter was born because shhe was affraid of me and taught my daughter that im evil and ill never change and never let me know my kid. My kid still wont talk to me 19 years after she was born. And btw, she ran away when i went to treatment to get help for my drinking. (I am now 6 years sober) Anyway, this song hits close for me. It always makess me cry every time i hear it. Everything they say in the video is true. Thank you for doing this video and thank you for all you said in your reaction to it. Youre on point with all you said. I appreciate your understanding and compassion u showed and have for us as veterans.. it means more to me than you know.

I am a veteran that served in the illegal Iraq war. That said, I was there for my brothers that I served with. I wouldn't hesitate to do it all over again. I was on the path to being another statistic when I finally got out. Luckily, my girlfriend (now wife) was there for me and helped me get my life on track. Without her I would have ended up dead or in prison. I have made it my life mission to assist veterans though various organizations. All I can do is hope that I am that saving grace for someone like my wife is for me.

Something I have said for a long time... The person who has sacrificed and served is not only the one who was "in country" it's also every person that loves them. They all face the demons when the darkness comes. So to all the mothers fathers husbands wives and children of those who served, thank you for your sacrifice, and bless you for standing strong for your veteran. Here is another image that is hard to deal with. I've spoken with more than one veteran that the last time they saw their friend was when a bucket of water was used to flush their remains out of a Humvee or helicopter. Thank you veterans. To me it's personal, I feel like I owe you on a personal level. You see I didn't serve but my son, my flesh and blood enjoys the freedom YOU provided. Thanks is not enough! How do I ever pay you back?

@@db8314 Well said brother. I haven't served in a decade, but my mother still worries like I am there. What is sad is that I never thought about how it would affect those around me when I joined. How I deployed and she is the one that ended up with PTSD is a real eye opener.

The biggest difference between going down a very dark road is the support system we have when we get back.

[@MrShortStuff]

This video hits home as a Aussie Digger. I served in frontlines of Afghanistan and I joined to help people and protect people not just for my country but for every country. Sad reality is that people dont understand after we serve all that we want people to dois respect one another. When people don't do that it, then it feels like everything we fought and suffer for was for nothing.

5 finger death punch has a cover of the Offspring's "Gone Away" but repurposed to show what Soldiers go through and the impact of Suvivor's Guilt has that many civilians simply just can not comprehend.

[@nicholasblackley7591]

As a British Vet from this time period the lyrics in this song speak so loudly not just if you have had to be a part of a operational deployment such as Iraq and Afgan but also during training, I cant say for our American allies if is same but for our training the conversation and reality of having to possibly take a life is raised a lot and you are trained in safer environment's to question and understand and in a way experience what that means. From this a lot of people in all branches of the services do struggle with that question of 'im on the wrong side of heaven, but the righteous side of hell' and that experience has a huge impact that can only truly be understood if have experienced it as well

[@0lderSch00l]

Desert Storm Vet here. Something you caught onto instantly is the one thing that makes transitioning to civilian life so hard; the fact that you have to carry with you what being in service during a war makes you guilty of. Sometimes it's a direct action we took, sometimes it's guilt by association, sometimes it's erasing a blip on the radar and not knowing what it even was for certain. No matter what it is, at the end of the day, you have to look at yourself in the mirror and find some way to cope. Some people came out fine, absolutely solid; but a lot of us came out broken. Most of us are alcoholics of one stripe or the other. Some of us are drug users; but it's rarely a constant thing. It's just what we go to when it gets too hard to bear without help and we can't stop the sounds of dead people talking to us. FFDP is a polarizing band and they get some (not undeserved) hate and criticism; but for what they've done for the vets and troops I will be forever grateful.

[@Ivorytapout]

For anyone who may not have caught it, he didn't say 'you know me' at the end. If you see earlier in the video, it's the only soldier who's name we could see. His patch on the uniform said "Jacoby". He was reminding his fellow vet of whom he was and that it's his life that he saved. He also picked him up and supported him the exact same way the old leader did when Jacoby had gotten shot. He brought him to safety. Jacoby returned the favor ❤

[@johnhopkins8504]

I am a marine. I was fortunate to get the help i needed. To take a life even in war is the most single hardest thing i have done. Yes it was them or me but it still doesn't sit well with me. The lives i took affected more that the lives i took. It affected their families as well.

[@susanconstable2113]

I don’t care why a person signed up for service whether it was for help with college or whatever- the point is they did. These people took a risk for whatever reason and signed on that line to protect our country and it’s people possibly with their life or their piece of mind. Respect and love to anyone who has helped me to sleep peacefully at night in this great country.

Very very well done Lilly Jane! As a 59 year old veteran and metalhead this song touches my heart and soul. I suffer from PTSD and depression.

I pray for them while at the same time thank our Veterans Administration System

[@littlefrog30]

I serve for over eight years and definitely agree with this video. It took me almost a year after getting home to get somewhere to live and somewhere to stay and the sad part is once you’re out they kind of look at you as a number and do not really care to help.

[@Czarseahorse]

Song always hit me!! My best friend from high school turned his life around from heroin & ecstasy dealer to Marine. Served 2 tours in Iraq. Met him after his first tour, and though he wouldn't talk much about it, I could tell he lost something. After his second tour, he was honorably discharged due to physical injury & PTSD. Despite his diagnosis, VA discharged him. Unfortunately, he committed suicide at his parent's home. From his parent's I found he was a lone survivor in ambushes in both tours. He kept dog tags and patches of his fellow Marines in his company.

He is one of the lucky ones, but his life is a struggle mentally and physically. BTW, he is the last (so far) in a line of six generations of military service members. We proudly served, and would again, but how vets are treated today is wrong on so many levels.

[@Gwydion_Wolf]

I think every single politician in America should be required to watch this music video on the day they take their oath of office. Not that it would change how 99.9% of them act, but it'll at least serve to give them a visual of what it is they throw away as 'no-longer useful to them' after wars.

Sadly as a veteran, the politicians couldn't care less regardless if they watch this or not. I will guarantee they know these statistics. They just don't. Care about the less than 1% of the American people that served.

[@cobaltfog]

They have no idea, for them veterans are just a liability with programs that take "their" money from their pet projects. That's the only possible reason they vote against everything veteran related, at least from one party, the one that talks a lot about backing them but wants to privatize everything so they can keep their money.

Yes, we often let down our soldiers. I had a friend who was a marine. He came back with severe PTSD. He kept telling the VA that he needed more help. They just kept telling him to go to these group therapy meetings. He kept saying it wasn't working and things were getting worse, he needed medication or something. It eventually got so bad that he had an episode in a restaurant and ended up hitting his wife and the waiter. He eventually got the help he needed. It only cost him a criminal record, a divorce, and custody of his children.

[@sliptera3]

I joined July 30th, 2001 only about 1 month and 12 (42 days) before 9/11 and I was in Iraq in 2003 so I know how a lot of veterans feel. Thankfully I was lucky enough to had a family and friends who loved me and help me through. But I also went through basic training right after 9/11, October 10th (30 days after), but honestly I’m glad I went through when I did, because they still trained you physically and mentally. One of my cousins joined in 2006 and from what they told me about their basic training they had cards to hold up when the drill sergeants were screaming at them (which helps prepare you mentally if you can get through it but making you think and do while under pressure) and from my understanding it’s even worse now than then. So those who go to war in the now military won’t fare as well as those that when I around and shortly after I did and before. Because if you can’t handle the stress of basic training you can leave at anytime…but in war you can’t hold up a card and say it’s too hard and still get through…So I really feel bad for people who are in the military if we go to another war, the PTSD rate will be 100x worse.

One thing to keep in mind, this video was made over 10 years ago, so the statistics mentioned are all much higher now. I will always love FFDP because they did this video.

[@larryd4352]

One of my friends served in Vietnam.... and for years he tried to get help with the PTSD he suffered with, and medical help for both of his knees that were injured during his time in Vietnam! During the last 10 years or so...he finally got both knees replaced and he also get counseling to help with the PTSD. Luckily...my older brother did not come home after being in the conflict with Iraq. But, he saw way more than he ever talks about! Someday, our government is going to stop giving away our money to fight other countries wars, and spend that money on our Veterans, the disabled and Elderly who have worked their whole lives and barely make ends meet, and can't afford to get proper medical care.

I don't understand how anyone could watch this video and not feel something. My stepfather was abusive in every way to us as kids and although that doesn't absolve him of guilt, he was in the Marines. One of if not the most strict and disciplined branch in the U.S. Military. So even though he treated us like sh*t, I still respect him as far as his military service goes.

[@jabbott6748]

I don't mean any disrespect to you, your stepfather, or any Marines, but if he had truly been disciplined he wouldn't have treated his family that way. I'm retired US Army and have spent most of my 22 years of service in SOAR, the 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment. And treating anyone that way is unacceptable. Treating your own family like that is absolutely shameful.

[@briansgamesandanime]

@@jabbott6748 thank you for that. And as I said, I don't condone anything he did, I just respect him as far as his military service goes.

[@jabbott6748]

@@briansgamesandanime I understand and respect your position. And to a small degree I agree. But I have no respect for anyone that treats others that way. Militarily or otherwise. I would like to apologize on behalf of all Service Members that our system failed to impart enough real discipline to prevent him from acting so shamefully.

[@RonnieG]

Agree. I have an uncle who was a police officer. He did undercover too. He lost his rank due to becoming a meth addict & moved in with us. He abused the hell out of me. & my brothers. I still go help him on his compound but I always tell him when he has the story wrong & it was abuse. He doesn't like it but he can't beat me up anymore.

[@georgesafford8663]

Tear up every time I watch this.

[@blakemcelrath54]

As someone in a military family we honor the sacrifice our family members make upon the altar of Freedom, they're away for months or years at a time and you pray you never get the call that one has been taken but it also sickens me how much some people take for granted the Freedom that others have died to provide

[@garyc7880]

I really appreciated your reaction. I am a 3-combat tour veteran of the US Army Airborne. I wear the scars of 3 Purple hearts, and I walk thru life as the Invisible Man. no worries here. I have have no regrets for watching persons like you react to my everyday story as well as all others who "hide" it well. Jesus Bless you

[@johnconti5118]

I am a Veteran and knowing my kids, family and all my fellow Americans are free cuz of my sacrifice is enough for me.

[@agarven1]

Ivan Moody the lead singer is a big military supporter. Growing up his parents were a military people and growing up in a military family. I seen him live. He gave out a signed military flag from the band to a woman in the audience. She told him her husband couldn’t go and he was deaf. She signed language to Ivan and he understood sign language because his daughter is deaf. He let the woman come on stage. The band signed the flag for her and her husband. That made me more of a fan of the band because of what Ivan did

[@bobbilywobbily2810]

made a sub out of me with your knowledge and open perspective. Infantry veteran here...thank you for understanding the pain of others and helping others to hear it as well.

[@christopherdewberry7652]

Thank you for understanding

[@rickygoff3199]

You did amazing lilly am military and I have PTSD from the Iraq War God bless you for doing this video reaction ❤❤❤100

[@jamesmcfarland3711]

I have watched this video a lot. Being a veteran myself, it took me nearly 25 years to step into a VA hospital to seek help. This is my first time watching one of your reaction videos. I want to thank you for reacting to this. It's nice to see a young person with such passion for what they have to say. This is a tough topic for most and you covered some great points. Thank you again.

[@davidstephens8543]

7:22... "You saved my life, brother!" This song and video gut me every time! I love the way they bring the unit back together in the end... showing the different paths... showing the brotherhood is still there.

[@hoopwizardws]

Great song, looking forward to your reaction Lilly, as usual!

[@bdssltdprc]

To all you veterans, THANK YOU! from the son of a WW2,Korea,Vietnam vet.

[@bloodstoneray9697]

As a veteran it's refreshing to hear what you said about us. Gives some hope that people might kinda get it sometimes. I went through the dark times, self medicating with alcohol and it probably should have been over more then a few times. Then my son was born and everything changed. But again your kind words do have meaning.
