- Tribute to Vietnam Veterans- This song my brother wrote and sings is based on a true story about a Vietnam veteran living under a bridge that was being demolished in St. Augustine, Fl. He was the crane operator on that project. He didn't have words to describe the way he felt that day. On the way way home that evening, He prayed to God to give him the words to write. This song is a true blessing from God above. I hope ya'll enjoy it.
We send billions to other countries and we do not take care of our own vets. What a shame. 😢 VIETNAM 71-72 still hanging in there for now. Bless all.
I served with The 25 Infantry in 69-70. I came home to hate and dumbass questions and comments and called unforgettably things. Finally in 1987 on Veterans Day a fellow told me Thank You. God Bless America and All Veterans.
I served in the Air Force 68/72, i was stationed Taiwan, Korea and Thailand, and California, we would have protestors calling us baby killers over and over during our lunch break on more than one acagtion, i was stationed in California from 70 to 72, i will never forget what they did to us, GOD BLESS ALL WHO SERVED
I started weeping at this song,as a veteran please when you see a old beat up looking vet remember he paid his time in hell
Some of us are still paying
How do you differentiate?
Your not the only one buddy as a vet I can relate to this also
Thank you for your service
Welcome home, Brothers. US Army, RVN '67-'69.
Don't forget the nurses; angels of mercy, all volunteers who never had to be there.
I have been home for 56 years and my wife finally talked me into joining Am Vets a couple of years ago and I'm thankful to her for that. I take great comfort and pleasure of being in the company of other veterans. Every veteran has stories that others who have served can relate to and doesn't necessarily have to be about body count.
I am a 75 year old retired professional soldier who served two tours in Nam and Desert Storm, also a disabled vet. Listening to the words brought tears to my eyes. I was 19 at the time of Tet '68 engaged in my first combat in Qui Nhon. My second was in '70-71 with the 1st Cav at Lai Khe. When I was assigned to Fort Story, Va. visited "The Wall" in my dress uniform. I have friends who never made it home including my company commander who was awarded the Medal of Honor. It was only two months prior that he pin the Bronze Star on my chest. When I meet a fellow Nam vet regardless of branch of service, he is my brother and always will have a hot meal and warm bed at my home. I am a Black American who is 5th generation army. God Bless our troops and the United States of America.
Yes sir. There is a reason the United States Army teaches you to respect our heritage and those that have come before us. Especially in the Infantry. Every man in my lineage has served since the American Civil War. And before that I’m sure. My grandad served 3 tours in Nam as a volunteer. My dad went to desert storm and I served to consecutive tours in Afghanistan.. I’m built different than 99.999% of my generation. And I accomplished that by following my granddads lead. Now that I’m 32 I understand what he understood all those years ago. And I love him even more for it. I just wish he was here for me to talk to.
Thanks for this Remarkable song. God was on your shoulder that day, and He filled your heart to for you to create such as this. I am too a Vietnam Veteran, 33 months my country needed me to be there, I felt the pain of returning home only to return again for home was not home any more. I pray each day for my Brothers, we are dwindling down now so people to not need to hide their faces when we pass by. My comment on the memories this song so brings back, Thanks again. Dave
I told a Vietnam vet,”welcome home” and he burst into tears and simply said “Finally!” 🎖💜♠️🪖🇺🇸
Served there mash 71evac lady veteran so proud my brothers and sister.welcome home my darling vnam vets 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜forever
Welcome home to you my friend. Thanks for caring for us. USMC
God Bless you, my sister vet and, as a knuckle-dragging Neanderthal Army vet, a great big brotherly kiss. No amount of thanks is enough for what you did and, I'm sure the dreams you still have day and night. Peace.
Vietnam took my youth, soul, and a good night's sleep for the rest of my life. I was 18 years old and now I'm a old man that sits alone at night. Came home and nothing was the same, heck my friends even drank a different beer then we all did before I left. Everything was changed and I had a cold heart and soul. I was someone people always wanted to be around but when I came home I could see the fear in them when I came near them. I never got over the looking at where I was or how and where I stepped.
Scars never go away they only get covered up.
Semper Fi and welcome home my brothers and sisters.
Welcome home brother 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
SEMPER FI BROTHER, it’s almost over at last. 69-70, left to go to hell, coming home was not much better. Glad to know ya.
@@galedavis3198 Bless you brother! And welcome home!!
What state are you from?@@galedavis3198
We all lost something due to that war and stepping off that plane to an ungrateful nation was just as bad. God has given me the help to forgive but forgetting is another story. Pretty much have been a loner ever since not trusting this government or the hypocrites that turned their back on us. I love this country for what it stands for but the people has turned it into a shit hole and those I do trust I can count on one hand.
Semper Fi brothers. I made it home but you'll never be forgotten as long as I live.
We Fought All The Way
The Brave And The Bold

Vietnam Vet Tom
Brother it was a war. Welcome back brother.
After all these years, it still hurts! I feel like I'm still there, and the memories still in my heart and soul that only God can remove.
Cu Chi 1966-67 Welcome home all my brothers.
😢I remember well the many from our community and county that served in Vietnam. My brother and I would play taps for the funerals of the fallen and for those who came home broken and shattered. Yesterday was National Purple Heart Day. Karen and I are heavily involved with our local and county veterans groups. I am the Military Order of the Purple Hearts chapter Chaplain and president of the auxiliary. We had a large event yesterday, and Karen decorated our big bank and our courthouse. They humble me by allowing me to open and close in prayer. Men approach me to talk with me about "God" because they feel they have no one else. A WW II vet with PTSD, lost it when they gave the 21 gun salute. I was able to help calm the situation. A part of me would love to move to your area and help with veterans. But, I remain humble being permitted to serve all branches here.
RIP HEROS, TRILLIONEN THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE TROOPER 🙏🙏🙏🙏🕊🕊🕊🤝🤝🤝🤝🤧🤧🤧🌈😖😖😖💔💔💔💔🥀🥀🥀🥀🥀🕯🕯🕯🕯😖🐾🐾
I was in Nam in 1968-1969. I was known only as Ski. I was shunned at arrival back home. This video makes e feel better.
Welcome home Ski!!!
I was there from '67-'69 'cuz I extended my tour about 9 months just for the 150 day early out. I remember back in Basic, the hillbilly DIs, couldn't pronounce names that were short of vowels and called guys named Ski "alphabet".
This is a beautiful memorial song. It is still happening. Some veterens never came back and those who did weren't whole. PTSD very little treatment for our Viet Nam vets and they die that way.
Our Vietnam vets our still getting the poor deal. It's Easier for our soldiers now to get there full benefits. I know a few Nam vets that lost their limbs overseas still fighting for what they are deserve
may the true GOD havy mercy on our veterans
Thanks for your service please remember the ones that didn’t make it back home!! Thanks
So sad but TRUE ..Thank You All for your SERVICE ,,,,,
Thank you for your service!!! Love All you Men and women!!! From a Vietnam veteran 1969-1976, USS mullinix DD 944 Us Navy Gunner and his wife!!?
My cousin was in Vietnam never was the same. May he RIP
The Vietnam Vets still haven't gotten all they deserve. They should never have to worry about a home, food, and medical care but this country still doesn't take care of it's own like some other countries do
My fiancé is a Vietnam War veteran 75th Regiment ranger for the Army. I'm so thankful to all the gave themselves for our country. God Bless Each One of you for giving your all. Gone But Never Forgotten. Prayers sent to all veteran's n know you are all loved n mean the world to us .
Say welcome home to your fiance for me from one Vietnam army vet to another.
@@felixmadison5736 Ditto here.
Thank you vietnam vets!!!!
You won for us!!!!!
Welcome Home Brothers and Sisters
Such a tearful song as I lost family in Vietnam and 1 that couldn't deal with the demons of the war when he got home and I as a Marine veteran of the 80's I saw first hand the invisible scars of the war with many of the people who I served with
To all of those horrible people who spit on, cursed out and threw bags of animal and human excrement on those troops returning home from Vietnam in the late1960s and early 1970s, who called them baby killers and war criminals; shame on you and may you rot in hell !!!!! It was okay to oppose the Vietnam War. It was your constitutional right to do so. But you had no right to attack and demonize and vilify these men. And equally complicit in the cruel, unfair and vicious treatment of the Vietnam veterans were the news media
(television, newspapers and mazines), both the film and television industries, and the administrations and faculties of many of our colleges and universities. They all help to promote, incite and further hostilities against the troops returning home from Vietnam.
AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tears hearing this song😢
First I'd say this song is very good...My brother served in Vietnam ...He never would say much about it..He say so many of his Brothers died there that shouldn't have..Things I was told to do i prefer not to talk about..That War was one of the most unnecessary Wars I ever read about..If a person took the time to read about then you'd understand...
Thank You Miss Rose I ama Viet Nam vet.
Thanks Tommy!
God's Speed Brotha n God Bless , AMEN
Welcome home brothers.
I work in the tenderloin in s.f. Calif and rest assured to all vets I always keep this in my mind daily thank you you all I lost my life and got it back so I know the price you all paid thank you all happy holidays to you all for the freedoms I have rest easy my brothers
Thanks for your story. Ya know all War time Veterans have there story!!!Jesus is Lord, he is our Victory ✝️
❤❤❤❤
I was traveling to visit family in Florida when I saw a homeless vet under a bridge. I knew him from my squadron and thought he was hungry, so I stopped at a fast food joint got him something to eat. I had to go about 10 miles to get back to him. When I got there he was gone. I often wonder what ever happened to him as I never saw him again. The song brought tears to my eyes and I reflected on the guys that came home in body but left a piece of themselves in Vietnam.
Thank you!!!!!!!!
I cried honestly I am so messed up from my service.
Welcome home,never forget,
God rest our fallen.🖤🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸

Back at you brother,1st Air Cav class of 70.
Looks like my brother who was in the Marines in Vietnam he passed in 2015 of agent orange.
R.I.P. brother from the 1st Cav Div class of 70.
I was in the army during the Vietnam war but I went to Korea instead of Vietnam. 13 of us were due to go over an 12 went to Vietnam and I went to Korea. God had plans for me to meet my wife at the end of my tour in Korea. I was about to reenlist and the 8th army goofed over me so I decided not to. I believe God had his hand in it. I never took stress too well. I believe I was saved from the war because God knew I would have problems.
I'm sure you even had problems in Korea. What about that Kimchi?
Co. A, 227th AHB, First Cavalry Division, U.S. Army. Lei Khe, Vietnam '69-70. Proud to this day!
When I saw your comment I almost lost it. Was with the 199th Light Inf at Long Bin until the unit was sent home. But we the troops, didn't go home and were reassign in country. I was assigned to A/227 AHB and ran the avionics shop. I'm retired in 1987 and live in Virginia Beach, Va.
@@user-ns1jj3ks5s Welcome home Brother
We I am ashamed to say have it here in England I am a proud RAF veteran and they are treated the same here you protect the citizens of England and you get no respect from the government or the population but if asked to do it again hell yes I would god bless the Vetrans
I wept too for this man and my father and his father and all those who fought for the freedom we so easily take for granted but is being destroyed by the moral weakness of some of the so called leaders of the democratic countries of the world and the UN.
Sir. If. You. Plan. To. Vote. For. Trump. Remember. What. That. Piece. Of. 💩. Said. Àbout. The. Vets
Amen
RESPECTS 🙏. GRATATUDE TO ALL WHO FOUGHT FOR FREEDOM AND DEMOCRACY OF VIETNAM. THANK YOU TO ALL WHO STOOD WITH MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF ARVN. LORD BLESS YOU ALL. WELCOME HOME MY YOUNG BROTHERS AND SISTERS. WELCOME HOME.
I remember being handcuffs limping taken to jail for something I truly did not do , and a friend I went to Nam with and being cracked across his forehead , split open who done nothing except when asked for ID he asked why , handcuffed him then split his head open , when I moved to help him they stuck the barrel of a gun and jamed against my head and said dont move . I wanted so much to break his arm but I knew we were out numbered and out gunned . Just out of Nam , because our "friend " went up a weong way street . They even had a green barea cop vet , who straddle his legs pulled his gun in front of our car like we were top 10 criminals . Nothing happened to the cops . Sadly the green barea commited suicide . Oh yeah , we are white , never made the news !
Vietnam Vet Tom
Welcome home brother Tom!!!

I did my time and no one knows what I've done and what I've lots my friends don't understand what I gave up when I came home from a battle that we never win and the people didn't want us to win
Win so we lost
The military DIDN'T "lost Vietnam". They WON the war. South Vietnam FELL to the North because the North was aided by leftist Democrats in Congress...TWO YEARS after the military had WON the war.
I hope you have a good life as mine is all most over with all that I've done I found that I'm not sure how much longer I've got left because I have cancer so I'm not sure how much more I have but have a good life
Most of these people, nowadays, do not understand what we going through. I respect the people that risk their life during the war situation, but they don’t understand that because they’re living in free, and they put us down to a shame which I understand how you got nephews, uncles and cousins being in that war situation with you guys Brother sisters And father and in-laws that they don’t understand at all because they think they are dominate but they still don’t understand at all. Why are we fighting for their freedom and they still neglect us as like a peasant they are the one think about our freedom and gave our life for them enjoy life and the future which they don’t understand because all this economy that’s going on, they think they are better than we are back then the old edition is we help one another but a celebrations going on so bad and the war is going bad but the politician don’t understand that because they sit in the chair I know they do is talk, but when are they ever sure the military and think about the soldiers they gave their life to prevent and give them their freedom But they don’t know that because all they do is think about themselves they don’t care, but we care we love to help one another but the people the chairs don’t care they just want to have more money in their pocket and think they’re better than us I don’t understand that let them go on face in the front line and see how it is none of them Being there, and none of them even face in the military. If they do they you know and understand that, but they don’t care at all because they wanna be rich and let us be poor why they are happily enjoying life that we gave our life during this war situation of the people also greedy I don’t understand at all those of people I don’t think so they think they know better than we are that we are sacrifice our life and our freedom and our folk, family, cousin, neighbors, and the people that we love by Jesus, don’t understand that because The simple life of not been in the front line, but put them in the front line see what they could do. I bet they are not capable to handle and survive that life of war is not a pleasant during the war you fight for freedom and that’s the freedom of giving up your life, so make it home and calm down but what a treat you They acknowledge you like you’re nothing why they have the glory and I hope they understand that wow they meanwhile they don’t understand at all. None of them understand at all because they’re politicians. All they do is talk money walks they don’t care about the people they give their life or this country and hopefully understand that it wasn’t for the people it went for the war to give them their freedom. I understand that they still don’t understand at all all they do is talk talk talk talk and most of them our family are rich because most of their family are rich because they take some peoples land property and freedom and they don’t even care about it. All they do is to care about himself and their family, but not other folks That fought for this war to become freedom. I bless the Lord and bless the people that serve for freedom under their country. I hope they and this year know that I know they don’t care even though we’re live in the street or having a hard time finding a job or Been higher because it is publicity for them. Could they control it and a whole she what is freedom in our nation oh fuck, different counter, people ethnic background most of them do not understand at all come from if you about a few and reach your life, the game, the freedom for other folks.

How Many Tears Have Fallen
Tears so many have fallen
Through the years for the Greatest Nation ever
Tears for life liberty the pursuit of happiness
For a free world
Tears for the sons and daughters that never returned home
Warrior soldiers all
Tears wiped from the cheeks of so many wives
Shed by the children with only faint memories
Tears behind the mother's veil
On father's handkerchief
Tears at the base of the white stone
That wet the flowers and flags
Tears at the sound of taps played in the distance
For the memories of buddies
Tears at the sight and sound of dog tags boots
Empty
Tears when the aircraft flyover
Stars shining brightly
Tears as the ships sail
Anchors aweigh
Tears for those that patrol
Guard the dark nights alone
Tears at roll call
With no reply to a name called
How many tears have fallen
Bless Them All

All war is senseless and Evil men create it .Will they World every learn.
When will they ever learn
As Vet my self I found so many people don't understand the phrase that those who served :
No service member abhors War more than the ones who have to fight it
I am weeping now,at 75,you never,never,never,forget,Thomas A.Filipiak Viet Nam 1967 1967!
Walking dead bravo 1/9 3 mardiv 67 68
That will put a lump in your throat
Looks like Verne Vaughan
😢😢😢😢
Rome Plows? 67/69 wia ? Many have died after this war ? Many still carry our battle wounds and will take them to our graves? If only homeland would care fore all our suffering
Looks like Verne vaughan
People would tell me o should be ashamed to wear the uniform. In the new Orleans Airport an older man requested to carry my duffel bag. I said that is not necessary sir. He responded it would be an honor so
Sad to think we have no money to help veterans but have plenty of money and support to give illegals.
