I am so proud of you three! Your voices are heavenly. My mother's brothers all served our country. My husband served in Vietnam. Jim doesn't talk much about it. Those soldiers were heckled and spit on when they came home. I hope they all see this tribute.

Thank you so much for this. All my relatives alive at that time, save one cousin, have passed on. I miss them more now than ever. ❤

[@JoAnnCrooks]

I sobbed when I watched this video. My father was a Marine, a bazooka carrier, in the Pacific Theater in WWII, and my mother was part of the first women's Coast Guard class. They are both gone now, and soon my generation will be also. PLEASE don't let your generation, and those who come after you, forget that that generation saved the world when they were in their early twenties. Thank you for such a beautiful remembrance.

beautiful! My dad is 101 years old. He was a prisoner of war in Germany. After he was liberated he spent a year in the army hospital. He was sick and emaciated plus he'd lost the end of a couple of toes to frostbite. But he went on to live an amazing full life. I'm fortunate to have him and my mom still with me. They've been married 75 years.

[@lifein.3d]

That is such a cool story!

[@maggiegarber246]

Wonderful! My father made it to 100 years, 2 months and 13 days and died 2 years ago. He was proud of his service. It’s sad, but my mother died in 1993. The first thing he said was after she died was that he had hoped they would have 10 more years together, but he had 30 years without her. They had 45 years together. Your parents and you are blessed.

[@carsb121]

Thank you for the tribute. My father served in Germany during the 2nd World War. Growing up he didn’t want to talk about what he experienced and what he witnessed during the war. I enlisted in the US Army in 1972, serving in Germany. After I completed my enlistment and returned home, my dad was willing to talk about his military service. He witnessed the horrors of war which affected him the rest of his life. After he retired from teaching he got involved with reunions with the unit he served with during the war at locations throughout the US. He passed away in 2005 with military honors.

[@zz8sfk]

These kids are amazing... This brings tears to my weary old eyes. My father and two uncles served in WW-II. It has taken me 70+ yrs to appreciate those who served and sacrificed for the freedoms that we enjoy today. It is a travesty the way our surviving veterans are treated. Please give them the support and respect that they deserve. "Go Army!" "Semper Fidelis!" "Non sibi sed patriae"! "Prosequor Alis"! Thank you Lifein.3d for sharing this.

[@a.duncan6791]

When I was 12 years old, i played bugle in a drum corps. The local American Legion Post asked me to play taps at a soldier's funeral. Then they asked if I'd do another. And another, and another. Some of those being laid to rest were veterans of the Spanish American War. Some were veterans of WWI,. Others were veterans of WWII, and the Korean conflict (this was the mid to late 50's). To happen upon your tribute this evening has filled me with rememberance of things past. I cannot thank you enough for this amazing acknowledgement of the average person who, when called upon, answers. Billy Boyd's tribute to the Tokien's epic stories was the perfect choice for the music. Thank you, and thank you to the veterans, one and all...

[@barrytucker1561]

This a beautiful tribute and very well done. I know you folks are Americans and this was done for your Memorial Day, but let me share the story of a dear friend Douglas ( God rest his soul ) who joined the Royal Navy at the outbreak of war in 1939 at 17 years of age and served in every region where the Royal Navy was deployed including the D-Day landings and the inavasion of Sicily and ended to the war in HMS Howe in the Pacific. He got home in 1946 ...7 years after he left home. They were indeed "the greatest generation"

[@meredithgill2024]

They were indeed. Thank you for telling us about your dear friend - he sounds like a true legend! I have a 17 year old son and can't begin to imagine him experiencing such horrors... Your friend surely had angels watching over him!

A beautiful rendition of Billy Boyd's song, The Last Goodbye, and very moving showing the photos of our greatest generation. Both my parents were of that generation, dad fought in Europe as an infantryman in Patton's Third Army, 5th Division, 2nd Infantry Regiment. Mom was a Filipino civilian who survived the brutal 3-year Japanese occupation of Manila. And I've known so many others who took part in such epic battles and episodes of this war. Such a brave generation and unselfish in their sacrifice. I'm humbled to have loved and known so many of them.

I knew a civilian carpenter captured in the first weeks of the war at Midway. More than three and a half years of slave labor and starvation. An underground coal mine. A couple other sites. At the end of the war a clay pit making bricks on Honshu. Looked like the Auschwitz survivors. I’ll leave out more. A few days after Hirohito’s surrender, parachutes from B-29’s. Food. He said it still made him angry when Americans said ‘I’m hungry’, when they mean ‘I’m not full’. I still try not to say it, though sometimes I do. M.K paid his family through the war. Widows after The War were offered jobs. The survivors were given jobs ‘as long as they could push a piece of paper from one side of the desk to the other’ the saying went. When he recovered, as much as he could he went back to work as a carpenter and a pile buck.

Thank you for such a beautiful tribute. My father and 4 of my uncles fought in WWIi. My dad plane was shot down and a metal rod passed through his body and thank God did not strike any vital organs and he survived. I remember one particular story my mom told of her brother, my Uncle Joe, who was in the army. Just before he was sent overseas his troop with many others stopped in San Jose and he was able to attend a family dinner with four of his friends. They sat around the dinner table with my grandparents and the other children to have one last home meal before leaving. Two weeks later my uncle was transferred into the engineering core as he knew how to work on vehicles. The four buddies that he was with at that final dinner were all killed in action.

This Song brings back my father's face. He Served in Korea "The forgotten War" and has since passed. Our Greatest Generation is passing, and I hope our Country remembers them. Love and Miss you Dad.

[@scottsmith922]

They truly were the greatest generation, the willing sacrifice for our country. God bless all active and retired US military and a deep gratitude to all who paid the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you for this video and your awesome voices.

[@elliecobb2734]

Thank you so much, beautifully done, I am 84 years old in 2 weeks, I remember, My Dad and my Mom's three brothers,all served, we were so blessed to have all four make it home, Each one carried emotional scars, from what they endured and saw.One of my uncles served on a navy destroyer, he lost friends after the ship was hit, He only had this conversation with my Dad, which I overheard. I pray, with what is going on today, their service will not have been in vain! RIP every single one!

[@gyrogeargoose]

Amen, Ma'am! My Dad served aboard the USS Essex aircraft carrier in the Pacific in WWII. May God Bless and Protect You, Marshall in Oklahoma

[@chadmark88]

What a nice tribute . . my dad enlisted at the age of 20 after the attach at Pearl Harbor. He was in the "Battle Of The Bulge" which started on December 16th 1944 and he lived to be 96 1/2.

[@bestoddisee]

My Dad was in India and China, my husband’s Dad at Pearl Harbor. Their brothers were at Pearl Harbor and European theater, one flew the Hump. Thank you for this tribute to them.

[@MickeyD1968]

My uncle served in the Canadian Navy in WWII. I never got to know him well enough to talk to him about it before I joined the US Navy. Thank you for a beautiful tribute to all of them!

[@lovetoflylovetofly3843]

You can feel their spirits. They are gone for now, never forgotten, one day to be reunited with our loved ones! Beautifully done!

[@kerahbearah]

I am a person who comes from a family who has been serving America since we first gained our independence. I don’t say this to brag even though I am proud of my family and their willingness to serve for mine and other peoples freedoms . I am saying this because I love seeing things that honor our soldiers who have fallen, were missing, captured, returned home and still serving. This song brought tears to my eyes. It is so beautiful. Thank you

[@popfeske3612]

That had me crying. I remember seeing a statistics a few months ago about how few ww2 vets are left and was thinking when I was a kid it was the Spanish American War vets they were talking about. My uncle Billy served in ww2. He was 15 yrs old. God bless all of them. And God bless yall for this beautiful video tribute. ❤❤

[@joannegarhart2942]

Beautiful my Dad a WWII vet was the good force in my life teaching me to love God and Jesus, thank you.

[@alwynvandenberg1346]

And just when one would think that you guys can't improve on the previous performance, You up the notch way higher than before. Wish I could express it all in better words. Thank you and God Bless. Greetings from South Africa.

[@HorseLady1109]

Valid point….my late father-in-law was a Tuskegee airmen. We are so proud of him and all that served despite how their own country treated them.

[@dougallen8305]

Beautiful, beautiful. My dad's generation. With pride, and tears in my eyes, I watch this. Thank you.

[@tascosaeagle]

Speaking on behalf of my 5 uncles in the USMC who fought on each island of the Pacific campaign , I can nay say Thank You ! One survived the BataanDeath March but didn’t come home . Sadly Only one survived the effort to protect America & Freedom .I know that they would be giving you a hearty salute in Thanksgiving of your efforts !

[@craiginnh8277]

This is beautiful. My dad, who passed in 2008, served in the US Army Air Force in WWII. Thank you, and may God bless you for doing this. I am fortunate that my father came home after the war. So many did not.

[@whiterabbit-wo7hw]

To the "greatest generation," thank you. I had my dad , uncles, and father in law serve in WW2. Semper Fi to all who served and are serving.

[@janacallahan688]

This is such a beautiful tribute to those who served in WW2. My Dad served and came home safely unlike so many others. Thank you 3d for this and I'm sure the families of those who are gone will be greatly blessed. I know I have been. God Bless you all!!

[@matthewrogersmusic]

My grandfather was 98 when he passed away on Christmas Eve last year. He was a prisoner of war in Germany for about 6 months before the war came to an end. Thank you all for this, I gave him my last goodbye but I’ll always wish I had one more.

[@jal7719]

My father was a WW2 vet, had two ships sink under him and he is passed, you helped me think about him and his service and all those who served with him.

[@nancydunn1564]

Beautiful. It brought tears. My dad was a WWII Marine in the Pacific and China. He is gone now but let us never forget their sacrifice. Thank you for this.

[@mandyofmarymac]

My father, the late Staff Sgt. Henry A, (Medic Corps) Thanks you. And so do I.

[@gpbarth]

Thinking of my Dad who went directly from medical school to serve as a medic in WW2 to help many a wounded vet on the battlefield - maybe even some in this video. Thank you to every service member who gave of themselves so unselfishly in their service to our country. 🇺🇸 ❤🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸

[@juliawhitesel6049]

Absolutely beautiful!! Made me think of my stepdad, who proudly served in the Army and Air Force, though not in WWII. Brought tears to my eyes.

[@guyh.4553]

As a Combat Engineer Veteran of Desert Storm, my heart and praise goes out to all of these men and women. One of the things that is not told is the key factor of Combat Engineers on D-Day. Watch the "Longest Day" towards the end of the movie and it will give a glimpse of what my brethern did that day 80 years ago. My parents were very close friends to many WW II vets and I remember their stories. One of our neighbors served in the Pacific. He gave me his Japanese bayonet he got over there. And another close friend gave me an interview when I was in 5th grade of his service as a B-24 Waist Gunner who came back to be an instructor for the USAAF. I miss them all. Essayons!

[@wendywright3914]

A beautiful tribute to all who have served. My dad served on the USS Wisconsin, WWll.

[@GretchenDeutschmann]

I'm a Vietnam vet, not a WW II vet, but this song touched me deeply. Thank you for making it available like this. I can't tell you how much that means to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Grace and peace to you as you serve in this special way! The Lord has blessed you with beautiful voices and with an amazing ability to harmonize.

[@roberthay8217]

I cried, so beautiful and poignant. You guys are amazing ... we owe so much to that generation and must retain our respect and belief

[@ronaldforsyth8386]
