    God bless our troops! I'm not hearing the respect I want for our troops on country radio so we're doing it here! I debated recording this song for over 6 years. So glad I did. FOLLOW Buddy Brown on Spotify and Apple Music!

    Buddy, I'm 75 now. 10 year Navy Vietnam veteran. We didn't hear much "welcome home" or "thanks for your service" when we got home. But there are sooo many patriotic songs out there now. And sooo many people stop us now and say "thanks for your service" that it feels good to hear it. Thank you, to ALL that say "thanks for your service" to the vets in uniform, or those of us that wear it proudly on our hats or jackets. And thank you, Buddy, for singing one of those patriotic songs. God bless you and yours. God bless all of you.

    He wasn't even wearing a uniform...
    I was visiting the United States about two years ago as a tourist from Switzerland. When I was in Washington D.C., I obviously walked around the National Mall and when I went the The Wall to pay my respects there was this old black guy walking towards me. It was evening, getting dark and he was walking with a cane. I thought that he was about the age of a Vietnam veteran, and that he had just visited the names of former brothers in arms. When he saw me, he kind of stopped right in his tracks, took the cane into his left hand, looked me right in the eyes and saluted. Without having a thought I immediately saluted back, being an officer in the Swiss Army and such. He broke out in tears and said to me "God bless you, son!". Never experienced a more touching moment in my live.

      How narrow-minded do you have to be to label every soldier a killer of innocent people? If you even took a casual glance at the numbers, you'd see that wars over the last few decades have been far and away more conservatively fought than those that came before. The amount of effort put into protecting civilians is herculean. But even more relevant, most of our servicemen and women didn't kill anyone. They joined up and contributed to the effort to protect our country, many of them risking their lives to do so.

    I served 24 years in the Canadian Army. When I took my uniform off for the last time, I had the good fortune to have a wife who stood by me for the last 16 years of it, and still stand by me to this day. I have all four limbs intact, my sight, my sanity and most of my hearing intact. I am one lucky man, but many of my friends weren’t so lucky. Most civilians will never understand that. We don’t ask for adoration, just simply a “thank you for your service” or a head nod would suffice. Most will never see the Veteran waking up in the middle of the night, screaming the name of some long dead comrade. These are the invisible scars we carry. My wife stopped asking me “Who is Murph?” or “Reid?” because she knows. I told her about them, some of the best people I had ever known. For those people out there who see a man or woman in uniform, take a few seconds out of your day to say “thank you for keeping us safe”. They are people just like you.

      TheBigBad Helmut he does it because it is right our military are willing to die we don’t do it for the politicians we do it for our family we don’t want to be someone we want to fight the good fight if our brothers and sisters are gonna be out there risking their lives it’s our duty to stand with them. We go to war because someone has to do it and we are the only ones willing to step up. I probably will never see combat as a sailor but I do my part and as a marine his part will be to kill the enemy and break their shit. So if u can’t or won’t support an man doing what he feels is right then mind your own business nobody here want your negative input

    Stop right there
    when you see those boots and a uniform
    coming your way
    get off your cellphone, your fancy ipad,
    and drop that old briefcase
    if you wanna see what
    a hero looks like
    this might be your chance
    before you go back home
    to your safe little world.
    Y'all dont you understand?
    These are the men and women
    that keep us living
    safe inside our homes
    and if you took one minute
    you're head would be spinning
    to see the things that they know
    so stop what you're doing
    walk up to him and tell him
    how much it means
    that every night you drift off to sleep
    they're all across the planet
    making sure you're free
    Stop when you see a uniform
    Don't you know who you just walked past
    with your headphones in today
    You're all concerned with your
    own little world just outside the terminal gate
    they're coming home from a whole other world
    that we know nothing about
    so the least we can give them is a standing ovation
    its time to hear us shout
    These are the men and women
    who keep us living
    safe inside our homes
    and if you took one minute
    you're head would be spinning
    to see the things that they know
    so stop what you're doing
    walk up to him and tell him
    how much it means
    that every night you drift off to sleep
    they're all across the planet
    making sure you're free
    Stop when you see a uniform
    These are the men and women
    who keep us living
    safe inside our homes
    and if you took one minute
    you're head would be spinning
    to see the things that they know
    so stop what you're doing
    walk up to him and tell him
    how much it means
    that every night you drift off to sleep
    they've got it covered
    protecting you and me
    Stop when you see a uniform

I told my boss I felt that wasn't enough, so she said that I was doing a lot for them but I wanted to do more. So, I made them all raisin, cinnamon bread, and they nicknamed me The Bread Lady !! ❤❤ That made me so happy to have been able to do that for them. 🇱🇷🇱🇷

  • @jaredcampbell6931

    Thank God for people like Buddy Brown. As a veteran, I can tell you that people like Buddy make such a difference. I served in the first gulf war and remember flying home after almost a year wondering what I was coming home to. How would my country greet me? I had thoughts of how it was for my father and uncle after Vietnam and I was worried. Instead, I was greeted by a warm, supportive, and welcoming country. I was overwhelmed with the amount of support and love I received from our nation. I now have 2 son's that serve and a daughter that is on her way to serving our country. I hope that Buddy and people like him can continue to spread the message of love and support that these men and women need. I thank God that my kids saw the importance of keeping America free without any influence or pressure from me to serve in the military. I hope this message spreads so they never have to face the "Welcome home" that our hero's from the Vietnam war faced. If you ever see a Vietnam War vet, please thank them for their service and give them a "Welcome Home" message that too many in our country failed to do when they returned.

      Katerine Locke, thank you for the prayers. I’m sorry I didn’t make it clear about my son and feel I should. He joined the Air Force in Oct 2001. He had dreamed of pitching college ball & like most athletes dreamed of going pro his entire life. He put that dream on hold after 9-11. He had a month left on his commitment to the Air Force. He had been accepted to college and would have been pitching the next season when we lost him. Even though he was willing to lay down his life for our country, he wasn’t killed in action. I don’t want to do a disservice to those who did give their lives. We lost him when he was 21 years old and buried him on 9-11-04. I’m very proud of my family. I’ve been married almost 37 years and my husband has been in law enforcement for almost 45 years. We raised 3 great children, besides our sons, we also have a daughter who has a Masters degree in early education and another degree in literacy. And we’ve been blessed with 5 grandchildren with another on the way. I’m proud to be an American and very grateful for the men and women who choose a life of protecting others. Again thank you for your prayers. I know without God’s help I wouldn’t be the person, wife, mother and grandmother I have become. Bless you and your family.

I know right now it’s tough to understand our nation, and the army is under a lot of scrutiny but those few bad people do not define the United States Army. I am proud to be a military spouse and to support those behind, beside, and in front of me for years to come. 💛 You are a beautiful soul to take the time to ask about his being home. Thank you.

And like I said I’m not going to be killing anybody. I’m not doing it for the respect or to be a hero or even to make some guy rich. The navy will set me up for the rest of my life.

      cat bone those people are not cowards man. They are risking their lives for people like me to be sitting here to be able to do whatever I please. They sacrificed everything to do what they’re doing. Show them more respect. Idc what you have to say about our government. I’ll even admit we’re not the best when it comes to our government but the men and women in our military should not be disrespected

  • @mildo2004

    I love my fellow brothers and sisters in the military, and I love whoever is reading this, but I am not a hero. Not all of us who served are heroes. We did our jobs as best we could, but fighting to line the pockets of the ultra rich like we are still doing doesn't make us heroes by default. My friend, Corporal Michael Craig Ledsome, was a hero. Stepped in front of his junior Marine and bore the brunt of a BMW packed to the brim with explosives. Died instantly, but saved a life.
    There are heroes among us, and I appreciate the sentiment behind it, but not all of us are heroes. Thanking us for volunteering to serve America is awesome enough if you mean it, I nearly cry whenever people say those words to me, but please chill with the 'hero' part. The majority of us don't deserve that title.
    Semper Fidelis.

      A hero never is one who is self centered. A hero is someone who did what was right at the right time. Just enlisting is what makes you a hero. You put others before yourself. You may not like the term but you earned it. Not like these entitled hollywood elites who brag about helping others when in reality it was just for a tax write off.

So I walked up to him on my way off and shook his hand and said thank you for your service. He looked so surprised that I said that. I'm guessing not many people tell him that. Ashamed of that.
