We were at Ramstein AB getting my son, who turned 1 year old that same day, a pair of his first shoes. We watched it all happen on a little TV screen in the store. The base became real active after that and locked down tight.
We thank your son for his service! It is a very emotional, amazing, and humbling experience to see in person! We can never thank them enough for their sacrifice to this country!
The day started out with this video being something different! After Arlington, we didn't really talk much, and then after the 9/11 Memorial we really couldn't talk to the camera anymore! So we decided this should be about all the Memorials!
Arlington National Cemetery is one of the places I always visit in DC. My grown children have a couple of high school classmates buried there that we pay respects to when there. Both mine and my wife’s parent are interned at Bushnell National Cemetery north of Tampa.
My brother-in-law was stationed at the Pentagon and was in the Naval Operations Center on 9/11. Sadly, he was in a meeting at ground zero and was killed instantly. Thank you for showing this in the video. I’ve been there and to his grave at Arlington, but seeing it on video is nice.
So sorry for your loss and we thank you for his service! Arlington and all the war memorials make you realize the sacrifice that has been made for this country!
Very nice job doing a somber and sobering video. Many that died at the Pentagon where records people and auditors. The audits for the previous gulf war was going on right where the building was wiped out destroying almost all of the records needed for the audit. People that served in a job not expecting war type death, very sad everything that occurred that day. Hope your trip continues to be safe and fun.
Thank you! Arlington was very humbling, but once we saw the 9/11 memorial we all remembered where we were that day when it happened and there was a lot of emotion involved!
I am not sure what our expectations were going into this, but the experience changed us, moved us, humbled us and made us thankful for the life we get to live because of the sacrifice!
Thank you for sharing these beautiful and meaningful memorials. We did not get to see Arlington and we were there before 911 so the Pentagon memorial was not there. I can feel your sadness. You did an amazing job filming your Washington trip. You filmed with respect for all that these memorials represented. We visited the Holocaust museum and that was very difficult and oh so sad. Def not a place to bring children. Again thank you for sharing this special place.
Thank you! We wanted to show respect and our thankfulness for the sacrifice that so many made for this country! It's hard to fully understand the magnitide of what all the memorials mean, until you see it in person! It is one of the most emotional and humbling experiences we have ever had!
WOW. WAY COOL. Never been there, Arlington cemetery or the Pentagon monument. I have been to the RVN WALL to see my HEROES. I do have some BROTHERS IN ARMS there. I am a Vietnam combat vet. Nice video
Thank you for your service! Without you and all the members of the armed forces we wouldn't have the freedom's we have today! These memorials make you realize how much was sacrificed for our country, very humbling experience!
Arlington is Truly a beautiful place. I'm 58 and for our Senior trip we went to DC toured and laid a wreath on the Tomb of Unknown solider. It was such an honor that will NEVER be forgotten 😢❤
Most amazing and humbling experience we have ever done! Wasn't sure what I was expecting when we walked in, but we were moved well beyond our expectations!
This may be strange for some to hear, but Arlington National Cemetery is my favorite place on earth! Our last trip to DC we went 4 times. Thank you for sharing your experience there!
It is a very amazing place, seeing it on TV is one thing, but in person when you see the sheer size and the magnitude of the cemetery it takes your words away!
Arlington is something every American should see, especially changing of the guard. Mom & Dad were both given the honor of laying a wreath of flowers at the tomb, truly an amazing honor. DC is an amazing place to visit!
It was amazing and humbling to see Arlington! The changing of the guard was a great experience! The 9/11 memorial had us unable to talk to the camera because we were reliving that day in history! DC is one of the best places to see in America!
I was a kid in the 80s when I went to DC with a school group. We were in awe of Arlington Cemetery and the changing of the guards. We walked in silence at the Vietnam Wall. Great video.
I haven’t been to Arlington for about 24-25 years, but the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was very humbling. It was the one thing that stuck out the most. Glad you got to see it! -AJ-
We spent 3 days in DC and everyday we saw something that moved us! Arlington followed by the 9/11 memorial made it hard to talk to the camera much that day!
Very nicely and respectfully filmed and scored. Thank you. If I don't get back again, you covered it well. I was last there when we dedicated the Vietnam War Memorial in November 1982. ❤
Thank you! I wanted to make this perfect to honor the fallen hero's and thank them for the sacrifice they made! Without them we wouldn't enjoy the freedom we have today!
I'll never forget my first visit. Extremely humbling and was very proud to show our young son the importance of those who paid the ultimate sacrifice. Saddening, but fulfilling for my wife to find a close high school classmate buried there. It was a great success as a parent and veteran. I especially made note of the former submariners buried in those hallowed grounds.
I remembered 9/11. I was in English class at Palestine middle school an the teacher got a message from the office to turn the tv on. Thats when i found out. That moment in time i was lost of words as a teenager. At that moment i knew i wanted to join the army but long story short i texted and called the sgt about goung to meps after i passed the test for a 31B ( Military police) no response back a few years back. Guess god had a better plan for me. I have a uncle right now in the marines and both my grandfathers were in the military and my dads father told me many story when he was inGermany and my great grandfather was in ww1 or ww2 i can remember which one. The tomb of the unknown is a very special place to go.
We were freshmen in college at the University of Houston! We got told things are happening right now in American that are going to change history, and we needed to get home to our family's! Arlington and the 9/11 memorials were both very humbling experiences for us!
I got a little “teary eyed” watching this. THANKS to all who served…..because of you we are very blessed & are able to do what we do. I was in El Paso for my grandson’s 2nd birthday. When I got ready to fly home there were guards with weapons & guard dogs everywhere
This one was hard to make because of the emotion involved! We thank all who served as they are the reason we can do what we do in this beautiful country!
Thank you for also honoring the families that support our soldiers. The hardest thing I've ever done was wait for my son to return from the war in Iraq. I think I held my breath the whole time he was gone. My dad, brother, husband and son have all served.
We thank your family for thier service that lets us enjoy the freedoms we have today! The memorials are very humbling and make you realize the huge sacrifice that has been made for this country!
Great respect & gratitude for all America Military Service Men & Women who actually gave their lives & for their families’ unfathomable sacrifice to preserve our Constitutional Rights & Freedom in America 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸 protect these at all cost.
First ever utube video to bring me to tears! But that’s a good thing …..because when we stop ‘feeling’, our nation is doomed….love watching your family adventure!!❤
Pearl Harbor is another one that is very breathtaking. Both walking above the ship and going to the cemetery called the punch bowl I will never forget that. My Dad was in WW2 with the third infantry and General Patton and his brother was in Pearl when the bombing occurred and helped with pulling people from the Arizona as it was going down. Amazing stories from these two men and to think that generation is almost all gone is heartbreaking.
Pearl Harbor would be another amazing and humbling experience! I can only imagine the stories you have heard from them! It is sad there are not many left from that time!
Thank you for this video. I have spent many many hours walking thru Arlington. It will never be enough time. After 30 years in the Army Memorial Day always is a very special time for me. Again thank you
Appreciate the video. Very touching and the phrase “ Some Gave All” kept going through my mind. Thank you to all who have served our country. Pray for our Country ❤
Thank you! It was an amazing but very humbling experience! We were overwhelmed thinking about all who served to protect this country and gave us the freedom to live the way we do in America!
It was so touching to see. We were honored to be able to film it and share it with those who may not be able to visit in person. Thank you for the blessings and we pray many blessings on you as well!
I’ve lived here for 23 years now and you’ve visited more monuments than me lol. Did you get a chance to go to the air space museum in VA? It’s much more modern and better than the DC one (currently being updated). Has a actual Concorde and Blackbird on display.
We had an amazing time in D.C. we made 3 videos from out time there and honestly that wasn't enough to see it all! We saw an Air and Space Museum in Newport Virgina you can check that one out here ua-cam.com/video/SHw_hvHyIWw/v-deo.html
yea .. now that was touching to see all those people who died protecting our country so we can drive our RVs go an live where ever we want and live free to bad it cost them there lives if it were not for them we would be owned like north korea under a dictatorship with no say with only one way to live. where RVing would be non existant.
The Pentagon 9/11 memorial leaves an impression. IF you choose to go to the 9/11 memorial in NYC, be prepared it will leave you drained. NYC memorial hits very close with me with several personal connections to those lost that day and grateful for those I know that where able to evacuate the area in time.
We are sorry for your loss! We just saw the 9/11 memorial in NYC yesterday, and you are right, it was a very humbling, and emotional experience! We saw it first and took a while to stop thinking about it! Especially when you see all the fire station memorials throughout the city!
@@PavingNewPaths It really is humbling. Though I am glad you took the time to experience it. When I think about it the fact I was there only 4 days earlier for a job interview in building 2. I had been laid off and looking for work, when I got the interview I was considering moving back to NYC at the time. (I did not, that day changed my course completely.)
We have met so many people who have told us stories about where they were and how things happened before that day, that kept them from being down there that morning!

Thank you! This video was very special to us, and it was our way paying our respects and saying thank you!
We were at Ramstein AB getting my son, who turned 1 year old that same day, a pair of his first shoes. We watched it all happen on a little TV screen in the store. The base became real active after that and locked down tight.
It is amazing how everyone knows exactly where they were on that day! A day that changed everything In America! Thank you for your service!
Sorry I could not watch this. My son will be laid to rest there one day. Too emotional for me. Glad you got to see it.
We thank your son for his service! It is a very emotional, amazing, and humbling experience to see in person! We can never thank them enough for their sacrifice to this country!
I’m not crying, you’re crying! So humbling!

I have delivered wreaths to veterans graves with my son and he was truly moved to the history and loss that all involved that day endured. As was I
It was the most amazing and humbling experience, the sacrifice that was made for our country!
That was a good one! Man O man freedom is not Free!
Thanks Thomas! Nothing is free, especially our freedom! D.C. does an amazing job of honoring all the fallen hero's!
Without question your best video. Thanks!
Thank you! This one was special for us!
Loved it. Sent my comment halfway through the vid! Peace and safe travels
A lump in my throat and flowing tears…I will never take the price of freedom for granted❤️🙏😢
We were very moved and humbled by this experience!

Thank you! We are glad you enjoyed it! We will never be able to repay them for what they did for us!
So hard to comprehend the number of lives lost due to war 😞
It is truly an overwhelming experience to see the memorials in person!
That is an awesome and sobering thing to tour the cemetery and watch the changing of the garden at the Tomb of the aunknown Soldier 🎉.
I am not sure what our expectations were going into this, but the experience changed us, moved us, humbled us and made us thankful for the life we get to live because of the sacrifice!
@@PavingNewPaths !!!!AMEN!!!!
One of your best videos!😊
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for showing these memorials and for your heart felt comments. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you! We are glad that you enjoyed it, this was our small way of showing out appreciation for the sacrifice of so many for this great country!
Excellent adventure! Thank you!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
IT IS ALMOST 10:30 IN CALIF. I HOPE WE ARE NOT TO LATE FOR THE CONTEST!! WE NEED A TEAM PHIL MUG!

What a great video honoring the soldiers and civilians that have made the ultimate sacrifice for America.
Thank you! This one was special for us and we wanted to do our best to pay our respects for what they did for us!
You guys truly had the right music at Arlington cemetery and at the end. Thank you for the beautiful video! Safe travels!
Thank you! The music was tricky on this one, I wanted to make it perfect for the moment we experienced when we were there!
Great presentation. It is an amazing place to visit 🇺🇸🍻
Thank you! You see it on movies all the time, but when you see it in real life it takes your back some! You see the magnitude of everything!
I was a kid in the 80s when I went to DC with a school group. We were in awe of Arlington Cemetery and the changing of the guards. We walked in silence at the Vietnam Wall. Great video.

Thank you! We stayed at Cherry Hill RV park, it was an amazing place and we do a review of it in our next video!
Very sobering. Your filming was excellent! What kind of transportation were you in when you were filming in the cemetery?
Thank you! We took the Arlington tour tram to see the cemetery!
I’ve lived here for 23 years now and you’ve visited more monuments than me lol. Did you get a chance to go to the air space museum in VA? It’s much more modern and better than the DC one (currently being updated). Has a actual Concorde and Blackbird on display.
We had an amazing time in D.C. we made 3 videos from out time there and honestly that wasn't enough to see it all! We saw an Air and Space Museum in Newport Virgina you can check that one out here ua-cam.com/video/SHw_hvHyIWw/v-deo.html
Great video guys!!!
Thank you!
yea ..
now that was touching
to see all those people who died protecting our country so we can drive our RVs
go an live where ever we want
and live free
to bad it cost them there lives
if it were not for them we would be owned like north korea
under a dictatorship with no say
with only one way to live.
where RVing would be non existant.
It truly is amazing to see all the memorials of all of those who made it possible for us to live the way we do in America!
