Stay Safe!
There is so much humanity in this woman
Yes!! She is truly lovely & so warm. I feel so sad for her that she is unable to return to her homeland in safety.
Humanity reveal itself in pain and suffering and its obvious she went through a lot in north korea
@@KalashVodka175 absolutely agree
Most NK defectors seem innocent and humble bc they've lived in a very low and oppressed state all their lives. Since they can't speak out the truth nor express their feelings they are internalized and matured through suffering.
WELL SAID ! ✊
I've commanded the U. S. flag folding ceremony many times and presented it to the family. When a service member dies, I feel like a piece of me dies with them. It is heartfelt and I'm not alone in this feeling.
The flag represents "We the People" and the oath we pledge is the common thread that ties us together. Our oath isn't to a monarch or the leader of the country but to the constitution which defines our nation and each person of her. With our numerous differences, ranks and services, that is the one thing we all have in common and is something that we volunteered to do.
You sir, are a true patriot. Anything I could say would not be as concise. See Edward Everett's response to the Gettysburg address.
This was such a beautiful comment.
@@dabswithnate Thanks. I meant it.
How lovely from a true patriot! It must be such an honor. Thank you for all you've done.
HOOAH!
Canada and America both honor their soldiers like this... As a Canadian I make it a habit to thank soldiers and Officers for their service, even if they are American.. I feel it is a sign of respect.. and I see no reason to EVER treat people negatively.. In my opinion.. America is Canada's family.. So I feel an obligation to treat American soldiers with love and respect.
That is awesome Even as a Christian I always treat everyone with respect and I always love my country and show respect for our veterans and I'll do Good things for our veterans as well since it seems like they don't get treated that well and seem like they are forgotten
@X R that's cool
Canada , the US , Australia , New Zealand , and South Africa are all cousins . I once visited Australia when I was in the US Navy , just after ANZAC Day . We were received with open arms and enjoyed the best hospitality you could ever hope for . Great Mates !
@@victorwaddell6530 wow that's awesome
@@blaizegottman4139 That was sailing back to our home port in Long Beach California from a deployment in the Persian Gulf. The Guided Missile Cruiser I sailed on ( USS Antietam ,CG54 ) was the air defense ship for the USS Carl Vinson Carrier Battle Group during that deployment. We visited Australia , Fiji , and Pearl Harbor along the way . While saing into Pearl Harbor we rendered honors to the USS Arizona , while manning the rails in dress white uniforms , and played Taps for the sailors and marines entombed in her hull . I'll never forget that experience.
She is a true soldier. A “worthy death” is the best that can be asked for. She understands.
I don't know if you will see this, but I feel it needs to be said. Your sacrifice and dedication while you served was honorable. You worked hard and lived accordingly to what you knew at the time. Your eyes have been opened to the misdeeds and bad practices of where you were, and you still wish well to those who remain. These are honorable traits, and your humanity is inspiring.
My grandfather served the U.S. Army for 20 plus years. At his funeral, he wanted Taps to be played. My mom honored that wish and Taps was played by Army men who came to the funeral from the nearby base and set up the Army part of the funeral, including folding of flag. I still can't hear that song without breaking down.
i've never heard taps from a trumpet in person.. we had to take turns doing funeral details and we brought along a mono boombox with a cassette tape.. god that was embarrassing.
@@stumpedii8639 Our local VFW post does funeral detail for local fallen vets. I have personally been to five that they have held. For three Uncles, for my Father, and for a Cousin. The flag that lay on my Father's coffin is displayed prominently behind me right now. I had to stop the video twice to cry while looking at it.
@@stumpedii8639 who is “we”? The local VFW?
When my Uncles died years ago, I noticed my dad would start walking away from the funeral until Taps was finished and he would come back. He later told me it was because of how many times he heard it when he lost friends in Vietnam. When my dad died a year ago, Taps was played. And now whenever I hear it, I lose it. When my latest Uncle died and was buried a week ago, they played Taps. I found myself walking away before they started and putting my ear buds in to block the music. It reminds me too much of my dad's funeral and I break down whenever I hear it.
@@stumpedii8639 There are very few trumpeters these days. I believe there is a mock trumpet that plays Taps at funerals .
I have an experience I’d like to share. You might not know this but when soldiers are brought home after being killed in the line of duty they are often transported by airplane, as was briefly shown in this video. It can be a privately chartered flight or commercial. When this happens it is called an Honor Flight or Angel Flight, and the aircraft has top priority in the United States airspace. Number 1 to takeoff and number 1 to land. A number of years ago my husband and I happened to be on such a flight.
It was just a short flight, I think maybe 90 minutes. All the passengers boarded like normal. Lots at talking, laughing, grumbling, fighting over carry on storage space, typical chatter when you cram people in a cigar tube. After the last passenger boarded and we had all generally taken our seats the captain announced that we were waiting on one last passenger. People started to complain but the captain continued and said that our flight was now an Angel Flight. He told us that the passenger in question was a soldier killed in action and was being flown home. He told us a little bit about him and gave his thanks and condolences.
I kid you not, that airplane became completely silent. We looked out the window and saw a shiny black hearse and two other black vehicles being escorted by police cars with their lights flashing. They pulled up and I think eight soldiers in full dress got out. Six of them went to the hearse and the other two stood on either side of the ramp that brings the luggage.
After the six soldiers pulled out the coffin we could see that it was draped in the American flag. I could just barely see them but as the pallbearers approached the ramp the other two rendered a salute. Every other member of the crew nearby stood by with their hands on their hearts. I saw no one talking. It was very slow, very somber, and incredibly respectful.
At that point I couldn’t see anything else as the wing was in the way but after about another ten minutes or so two of the soldiers in their dress uniforms, one carrying a folded American flag, boarded and sat at the very front seats (which I hadn’t even noticed were left empty. Then the captain announced that we were ready to depart so we started the backup and began to taxi to the runway. The flight attendants gave their usual demonstration about seatbelts and all that. Not one peep could be heard from any of us passengers. Then the captain announced that there were no delays and that we had been given number one priority to takeoff.
As we taxied over to our runway it was lined with dozens of police cars, fire trucks, and regular cars, of course at a safe distance. All had their lights flashing. All standing and all saluting or with their hands on their hearts.
We took off and everything was pretty normal but it was very quiet. Usually short flights like this can be pretty noisy. This one was like being in a library.
When we were approaching our destination the captain said that we were priority one to land and that after landing the plane would stop short of the gate. This would allow the soldier and his escorts to disembark first and he requested that the rest of us remain seated. He again shared his condolences and thanked us passengers for being patient. Once we landed and began to taxi to our gate I looked out the window and, again, saw many flashing lights along the runway. It was dark by this point so I don’t know how many vehicles were there but it had to have been dozens.
We stopped just short of our gate and the two soldiers stood up, shook the captain’s hand (I’m guessing both pilot and co-pilot can’t leave their seats at the same time) and got off the plane by a ramp that had been driven over. After several minutes we saw the coffin being carried to the awaiting hearse by more attending soldiers in full dress blues. It was completely silent in that aircraft. I turned back to my husband and saw that he had stood up. Several other passengers as well, no doubt military affiliated themselves. All giving their fellow service member their final salute.
It only took a few minutes and soon we taxied the remaining distance to our gate. It was surreal. Still very quiet. Everyone was respectful. Helped each other with their carry on luggage. Allowing others to go before them. Not the normal scramble to be the first off the plane. My husband is active military so I was sad at the passing of one of our military family members. But I was awed and honored as well. It was an amazing experience. Not in a fun ha-ha amusement park ride “let’s go again!” kind of way, but amazing because of the honor and respect I saw that the average person can show. We were all strangers. None of us knew the soldier. Many had connections to other flights and were anxious to get to their next gates. Yet the respect and love I saw that day will stay with me for the rest of my life.
Thank you so much for sharing your story.
I cried reading this. I’ve been on a few Angel flights but your retelling of your story put me right back there. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much for sharing. I was a member of an organized motorcycle group for many years that would meet at the airport and escort that soldier to either the funeral home, church or to the military cemetary for a service and interment. I have seen this several times from ground eye level.
I know that it’s been said, but not by me. Thank you for sharing your experience and telling it in a way that helped me feel how each one of you must have felt to be on that flight with a fallen soldier. Thank you for telling it with such deep reverence and respect for all who were involved in bringing home this American hero. May God continue to bless you and your family. Thank all of your family members who served for their service and their loved ones for their support of our service members.
This hit close to home. I have had to attend too many of my fallen brothers' memorial services and/or funerals both in the states and Afghanistan. Taps is the only song that will make cry every time I hear it. 😥
Same man. Too many of my guys funerals after even from suicide.
Same :( brought up alot of sad memories for me.
I'm not a veteran, but taps makes me cry every time, man. I've attended probably close to 30 funerals for people I've known well or been acquainted with; and the only funerals I've cried at were when they played taps. So much emotion in and tied to that song.
The roll call always gets me. 😢
@@cynreiusacari3163 gets me every time. Had to do a roll call four different times during my first deployment. Not fun at all. 'Til Valhalla
She should react to the Changing of the Guard, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery. Those guards are known as Sentinels and are attached to the U.S. Army's 3rd Infantry Regiment, "The Old Guard".
I don't think many know that other Countries have the same honor given to their war fallen. In England, the Unknown Warrior is interred at Westminster Abbey, same as the Kings of England. It is forbidden to walk upon the tomb of the Unknown Warrior. In France, their Unknown is buried beneath the _Arc de Triomphe_ and marked by an Eternal Flame. Perhaps my comment may pique someone's interest in this topic.
The Unknown Soldier is given the same honor as the Kings of England? That's amazing!
In the capital city of Serbia there is a large "monument to the unknown hero" which actually still has some damage left on it from Nazi shelling during WW2, I believe.
Here in Israel, there are memorials everywhere, and our nation will do anything to retrieve the bodies of their fallen comrades.
I was also thinking about Marine staff Sargent Tim Chambers at Rolling Thunder would be a good video for her to watch.
Breaks my heart to see her retelling her experience and the differences in how the are dead are honored. I’ve lost brothers I served with in the Corps and it’s never easy, but I never saw their deaths treated badly. This was a very humbling video.
This woman is intelligent, shows compassion, is so beautiful, and always has a smile. Thank you for making videos and giving everyone a chance to see the world through your eyes. 😊
You forgot to mention communist.
@@chiefstryder4538 stfu
Some folks are just bound and determined to flaunt their ignorance before the world, eh Aaron? (Sarcasm). It’s a pity we have devolved to the point where we have to communicate intent in parentheses. Taps.

I was glued to every word she said. The Fact that their Soldiers do not receive individual burials and a Flag Draped over there in coffins say volumes. Why we should be even more grateful to be American. Thank You Ahn Hye Gyung for your service and welcome to America. San Diego Bumblebee USN Retired.
I feel sad watching this because people who have died serving in the American army are given a respectful and honorable funeral while most of the souls lost in North Korea are treated like a statistic, a number, nothing. Every single North Korean is worthy of a honorable funeral too, not just the elite and well respected, EVERYONE! My heart feels for this woman who is doing her best to react to these videos for views.
A gentleman in our church died in early February. He was 90 and a Korean War veteran. One of the finest people I've ever known. I was privileged to attend his service and the graveside ceremony in our churchyard. He was buried with full military honors, including a 21-gun salute and "Taps." Rest well, Brother Jay. I miss you.
The flag that represents the sacrifice of the few for the many. In many ways the flag and the soldier are one , as they represent each other. This attitude is still very much alive in The United States of America, more than ever before.
The flag means a lot to me as an iraq war vet, but at the same time i and my brothers bleed for the right of americans to wear the flag as boxers if they damn please. And protest it if thats what they feel they want to do. Our nation is represented by the flag but our nation exists because of the people in it. And thats what i fought for.
@@HappyHippieGaymer Thank you for your service.
Excuse me. While I personally love the flag, it's not what I swore an oath to defend. I swore to defend the Constitution. That's what matters.
Yeah, The flag is a symbol of our countries upbringings but I didn’t take an oath for the flag, every soldier took an oath for something, some for the ensign itself, others for benefits, some because of family or wanting to get a head start in the new country they moved into (I know a lot of guys and gals who came from different countries, four from Africa, one from China). So it just depends on what the person made the oath for. For me personally, it was benefits and to set myself up for a stable living.
As a small child, all I wanted to be was American. I'm so happy I made it. The good, bad, beautiful and ugly are all part of being human. And we are human. But our flag represents us. The best of us. For me it's a sign of constant hope. A reminder to love one another. To prosper and help one another.
Every year I replace my flag. To every vet and family that's lost loved ones for me, My heart goes out and I thank you deeply.

Thank you for giving this perspective on the treatment of our military dead. I have had the sad privilege of attending the funerals of service members. In the military, we consider the job of Graves Registration one of the most important. We agree to never stop seeking a way to bring our fallen brothers and sisters home to their families.
Can you believe that someone commented that this attitude in America is dead?
No one left behind. Not even the dead.
@@PunchesCouches what? No it's not! ..maybe from the psychotic left but they're the minority.
@@Amy-un6oh I agree
If you have served in the military and are tough as nails the one thing that tears at your heart is TAPS. Gets you every time.
These are the videos I struggle with the most. I'm a disabled vet so every time I see the funeral procession, I cry.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice! Know that there are many Americans who love and respect our soldiers and vets. :)
@@itachileesan yeah all brainwashed sheep who support terrorism.
I’m always so touched by North Korean soldiers and their reactions to how the United States handled the bodies of our soldiers and the respect we have for them and in general for our military. I hope they realize how much we respect THEIR bravery too.
"Thank you for your service" seeing those people holding flags and waiting at the sidewalk to condolences him. That's very nicely and heart warming gratitude of respect.
She served in the communist army of North Korea. Are you brain dead?
@@chiefstryder4538 I don't think you understood what this person was trying to say. They were saying that it was a very heartwarming and respectful thing to do when a soldier passes away.
@@chiefstryder4538 bro I'm talking about the American soldiers died in the battlefield with honor. That something to see a great respect, which his country was not betrayed by his people.

I still have the flag that adorned my fathers coffin.46 years ago. In it are his dogs tags after I served in the Army I placed one of my own along with one of my brothers son 3 generations of US Army.
When my dad past away he had been out of the Army for over 20 years. My Mom was given his flag that had been placed on his coffin.
My Mom past away 2 years ago and I have the flag now. I will pass it down to my oldest son and the flag will be passed down as years go by.
I cry when ever I see a fallen soldier even if I don't know who it is. Because they put there life on the line to protect our freedom.
Thank you for the wonderful video. And thank you for your service to your country.
You should see about getting a copy of his service record to keep with his flag. That way his story isn't lost. I'd also include personal stories and pictures of him with it.
@@Firepaw20011 Thank you for letting me know. I will definitely do that. I would love to read the information. Thank you 😉
I have a feeling am about to feel real patriotic. I'll update you guys soon
So do u?
@@gracedicken8708 I think they may have drowned in their tears lol
@@gracedicken8708 A man sometimes might feel overwhelmingly patriotic for days when he thinks about his fallen comrades who gave their life for the freedom and safety of others.
My elder brother was KIA in afganistan in 2011 (age 22). I am proud of him and greatful that the USA takes such an effort for those lost. Every soldier signs a contract that basically says no matter what happens in the world he has to be between the USA and the enemies that want to harm her. I wish the NK had more respect for their troops, let alone their people. Maybe life in NK would be brighter...
Taps is played at the end of each military workday and at funerals, as far as I know signifying the end of a term of service, when played for a funeral it takes on a much more significant purpose, I don't know of any veteran who doesn't feel it, many veteran families feel it, but many civilians have no clue how that song can kick in the feels. To me, as a veteran, I never saw combat and most don't even now, but we serve to serve and protect our nation and people, but at a personal level we do it for the faces we know, that's why I volunteered and would do it again if I could and that is why those who know the fallen honor them so fully and well.
Agreed.
I'm retired Army. Lost some friends while in Service. Even now (well before Covid) I made sure that I attended Unaccompanied Vets funerals, Taps still takes me out every time I hear it.
I love this type of content. These people came out of the matrix and are alive to compare the two separate realities. The content doesn't have to be just US but it's enjoyable, speaking as a US citizen. The extreme version of this split reality was a documentary i watched.
A previously uncontacted tribe was shown WW2 footage including the nukes and the carpet bombing. The leader of the tribe asked the anthropologists how many people died. The translator replied "more people died than all the leaves in all the trees in the entire forest" or something similar, the forest had ALOT of trees. They didn't even have a number close enough that they would understand.
This channel and those like it do the same but with people that can actually fully explain their experiences. This comparison is strictly the contrast of realizing the world is many orders of magnitude more complex compared to what they knew.
Her commentary is so thoughtful and genuine. ❤️
My heart was opened watching this through your eyes. Thank you for sharing your experiences. My heart goes out to you and your journey:) Peace.
What a beatiful, kind soul you are..l was moved to tears with your kindness and inner peace and humble spirit..
Please cover the Pat Tillman story. Show her who he was and what he gave up so he could serve his country. Thank you. ❤
The Pat Tillman story is tragic even beyond that, the way the Army tried to cover up the circumstances of his death
Tillman saw what the US was doing in Irak and he was killed by "friendly fire" and his death was a cover up
I remember my first time performing the funeral honor guard, I tried so much to keep a serious and professional face, but having to stay serious with his family and loved ones grieving right in front of me as I was folding the flag broke me down so much. It was such an honor to be on the detail and I will never forget my time on the team.
I would like her to listen to Dire Straits, Brothers in Arms. US Veterans that have served overseas know the value that we are all Brothers in Arms... on both sides of a war. respect to you sister!
Regardless of your nation of origin, From this US Army Soldier we know your love for the Untied States and may I extend to you that though you served in your nations Army we respect you, you served your people and though you lived in fear much of the time, you are and will always be a fellow soldier. It is a brotherhood and sisterhood that all soldiers share. We love our people though our leaders may be good or evil our desire to do right by our families and our nations was high enough to do our best for them.
I have no doubt that you are as every bit courageous as US Army soldiers. From my heart I thank you for the respect you show us and the honor you give to us. I am humbled by every North Korean that has escaped, for I know the sacrifices that come with each one. My heart goes out to you for the losses you have endured.
If shes interested in seeing how a soldier is taken care of to the very end, the movie "Taking Chance" shows just that.
Oh that movie makes me cry
I was going to make that same suggestion!
I showed it to my Civics class every year, and was amazed at how many students were touched by it.
Unlike other vids I showed, not one made comments or jokes for the entire movie.
Even after seeing it many times, I still tear up watching it,
“Taking Chance” really makes one proud of America, and the way it takes care of military personnel who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
Cried many times while watching it.
Hello Hye. I don’t know if you will see this, but as a U.S. veteran, I was blessed to have never had to take a life. Things are a lot different today than they were 50 years ago, when I served my country. Wars and conflicts are all because of greed for money, power, and resources and it’s the political realm that creates these issues. As a veteran, may I offer you my greatest respect and admiration for the service you provide your country. I hope you will never be in a situation where you have to take life or lose yours. Losing your life in battle is a great sacrifice but I can’t with any conscience understand why this has to be. We are all human beings and have the same emotional feelings and love for others. You are a beautiful and young person and I wish you and your family all the happiness that life has to offer. Be safe in your military life and I salute you with high regards and honor. If we should ever meet, may it be in friendship. I would certainly welcome you with open arms. Take care friend.🙏♥️
I've been on the opposite end dozens of times. Saluting the caskets as they're loaded onto the planes departing Afghanistan. Very sad but all of the countries soldiers come and pay their respects no matter the country. Brings back alot of sad memories.
All soldiers deserve respect from their home countries. They served and many die in service. I’m Canadian and I thank all veterans that I come across. It doesn’t matter what country your from. You put your life on the line to serve your country and people. God bless all veterans.
This video shows us why we need to be patriotic. You can see in her eyes the pain that her former homeland doesn't have the privileges that we do. We think material things are our rights. over there they can't even bury their soldiers with honor. Did you hear the part where she mentions that only the highest level of her former government can have a flag. I am looking over at my dad's flag box now and wow do we take for granted how lucky we are. I listened to one of her other videos she talks about our abundance of food and her country men starving. About how military women have to abort their babies in order to not be shamed and sent home from the military. Every time she speaks about our country she is gracious.., but her pain at the contrast for her former country men is so clear. We are the lucky ones thanks to the sacrifices of our soldiers.
I performed funeral honors for 2 years as a presenter and team leader, and it was often hard to maintain my composure when presenting the flag to grieving families. More than once there were tears streaming down my face as I thanked them for their loved's ones' honorable and faithful service.
This North Korean woman is not only beautiful on the outside but she is beautiful on the inside, she was very respectful seeing the US soldiers coffins . She is an absolute credit to her country, I’m so glad she escaped & I hope she lives a long & happy life in South Korea.
You are indeed such a special and important person. Everyone is.
To see ones sell through another's eyes. Thank you for that gift.
I had an uncle who died in Vietnam, I was always raised to respect our military and service members. I had even wanted to join myself in High School. Then 9/11 happened, I wasn't able to join myself but many of my friends and classmates did. Towards the end of one friend's tour, he was ready to come home but had gotten shot by a surprise attack. A journalist happened to be with his unit so we got a first-hand account of what happened. It was harrowing. When we went to his service, and they played taps... I can't begin to describe it, but now whenever I hear taps I can't help but sob. He and my classmates were young and passed away before the prime in their life. Anyone, who makes that kind of sacrifice for their country should be honored. Anything less is a disservice to their sacrifice and their family's loss. I'm sorry that North Korean service members weren't honored or taken care of as they should have been. If I ever met them, I would consider it a privilege to meet someone who makes those kinds of hard choices and sacrifices for their country and family. Even if you feel your country doesn't honor you, know that many around the world do. Especially myself. Thank you to all service members regardless of your country of origin.
God bless this woman. She’s a treasure. I’m so happy she made it out. Love from the 🇺🇸
I salute you Sgt. you are still standing standing up for your people, by getting thier stories out to the public one can only hope and pray for change in a good way. I wish blessings upon you & success in your new Free life. THANKYOU for sharing
I just found your channel & instantly subscribed.... very interesting topic(s)... just started watching a few of these videos after my work shift ended... these videos are heart-warming & they put a smile on my face... I love seeing North Koreans smile & feel genuinely happy & comfortable!!!
Military video go home vids like these always get to me but not like ones that touching and fun when the military service man/woman surprises mom/dad/sis/bro or their own children. RESPECT TO ALL SERVICE PEOPLE.
I understand this is completely off topic but OMG her skin is AMAZING. It looks too perfect, like a doll.
This beautiful wonderful worthy woman is ripping my heart out. Such depth of humanity and decency. I am humbled.
This woman is filled with so much kindness an humanity.
My dad was a marine and passed away. Great when I saw him get the marine treatment and the three shots were cool.
She seems like such a lovely person. I'm captivated by her.
yayyy late night vid!
This is a really great channel.
There is a reason we have the saying here "All Gave Some, But Some Gave All".
I will say this as someone from a military heavy family who used to do professional framing, every single person in the shop I worked in for over a decade took extra special care anytime we had to deal with one of the flag cases. Be it for repairs, or a new one each one of those cases holds a significance that most of the people who walk past them in the aisle never grasp. It's something you never wish on anyone, but if you walk into a house and see it there you instantly realize the cost that was paid for it.
So yes I will show up on my day off to fill in the dents, ding and scratches and make it look top notch. Regardless of it they bought the cheapest version or the most expensive. Because if the company isn't paying me then the management can't stop me from using those skills to put in the extra work. Nor can the health and safety people which was more the business owners concern.
It was my honor to serve those people, be it flag cases or framing their or their relatives medals.
As for the song Taps I grew up by a cemetery that plays it out of respect everyday at sundown. It's so ingrained into me that I will catch myself whistling that tune.
I would love to see this Lady's reaction if she ever saw the Military Marching Band.
It has never occurred to me that people in other countries can’t display their own flag. I just assumed that you could do it anywhere because it showed national pride.
The British flag is always being lambasted in our media as evil. Brit's suffer when they fly their countries flag, believe it or not. It is referred to as "the butcher's apron" and people cannot seperate the flag from past colonial actions. Therefore, in woke world, to fly the Union Jack is to be a racist and supporter of oppression. Not my view, the loopy lefty media view which is everywhere in society.
I know some countries have very strong anti-nationalizm atmospheres
@@clairemcfadyen1036 didn't know this. But I guess it makes sense. Can't wash away the past just because we'd like to. But I didn't know it was called the butcher's apron. Learn something new everyday.
@@clairemcfadyen1036 Butcher's Apron is an appropriate name for it for the millions who are still suffering the after effects of colonialism
@@lils4341 True. But should a people live in perpetual guilt for what their ancestors did?. That makes no sense to do either.
You should watch the funeral ceremony for a soldier at the cemetery. The moments when they remove the flag, fold it, and present it to the family are some of the most touching emotion scenes. Along with the gun salute.
My baby brother died in Iraq October 30th 2006 . I love him and me and the rest of the family thanks him for his sacrifice. And we love him forever and we will meet again.
Such beautiful words. Thank you . What a beautiful soul you are. As an American I truly appreciate you. ❤
I feel so bad knowing these awesome women and men have gone through so much injustice, heartache...😩 I feel good, they have found out the truth, and they are living the life they were meant to; a happy life in South Korea... 🙏
It is easy to see that you proudly served your country. Thank you for your service. And thank you for representing the North Korean people. You are truly a good-will ambassador.
I also had tears in my eyes. Like her, I’m a veteran. And it doesn’t matter where you’re from, there is a family-feeling, like she is a cousin of mine and I want the best for her. Military service takes a certain personality to do, so you see that personality in others and it creates an instant bond.
Thank you Eric. Thank all who serve.
I really enjoy the videos of Ahn. She has a natural charm and is very open about her impressions.
Amazing video and touching reaction ! 💖
Perhaps she can also see the Canadian highway of heros ceremony. Respect to our allies who also paid the supreme sacrifice.
My father, and his father before him served in the US military. I love them as family, respect them as veterans, and honor them for their part in shaping the life I am able to live now. I can't speak for why you went into military service, or what you were taught as far as why you served, because in watching these videos I'm learning the military cultures between the two countries, how they interface with civilians, and the reasons they are taught to fight for is vastly different, but I will say this: You should be respected, celebrated and honored in life and in death for having done what you could within your circumstances to the best of your ability. Soldiers are people with loved ones, too, no matter their situation. Thank-you for serving your country, people, friends, and ancestors. You are a beautiful human being and I am blessed to have found these videos. 😀
More Americans need to watch these videos. It will give you something to think about.
Such an eloquent woman. And the emotion as she's watching the video. Wow.
I could listen to her talk all day, she's such an interesting person
The entire video of the fallen soldier made me cry. America treats these soldiers with respect.
your a very kind person , big heart
I'm crying my eyes out and i know this brave person didn't die recently. For me it's just the absolute futility of all the nation building that has gone on for centuries. Empires rise and fall and the soldier and the common people die in their millions and the whole cycle repeats itself.
yayyy early morning video!
As a army infantry veteran, I always have love for y'all, your always forever be my infantry sister🤗🙏👍
We have the same kind of funeral ceremony procession for our firefighters and police officers who die in the line of duty. For instance, policemen from all over the country will come to form a procession in the streets when the casket of a fallen policeman takes its final journey to the funeral service. And the citizens of the policeman’s town will stand quietly along the streets as a sign of deep respect and gratitude for the sacrifice that the police officer has made. It is enough to bring tears to the eyes of the bystanders and is very humbling.
Arlington is my home town. I am from a military family too...a male family member has served in every branch since WW1.
As I watched I was surprised to see MacDill AFB and the procession up Bayshore Blvd. I'm a native of Tampa Bay and it's a very sumber experience to honor our fallen heroes in such a way. I became a member of the VFW Auxiliary to honor those that served as well as those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
What I noticed was the Army took the soldier off the plane when he came home and it was local police who took him from the hearse to the chapel. Nice to see the locals involved in a soldier's funeral.
Never Forget..,
Thank you for you're service ❤️ USA...🇺🇸🌎🦅😷✌️🙋
Great job you guys are doing here, keep the videos coming.
America does this for all its veterans, regardless of how or when they die. My father who was a 26 year. Veteran if the US Army, and served in combat during World War II and Korea dies at 83 and was buried with full military honors at Arlington National Cemetery. “This We’ll Defend”.
Such a sweet lady!!
Great video as always! I'm surprised you guys haven't had them react to the United States Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon. I think Kangyou and Haneul would find it very intriguing. Keep up the great work!
Your so special! Thanks
God bless all of the veterans who risked everything and sacrificed so much to protect our countries and preserve the freedoms we enjoy today! God bless all the souls - military and civilian - that we have lost in times of war! God bless America! God bless us all and grant us peace!
I would like to see someone on Dimple to react to a video on all the crazy stuff Teddy Roosevelt did.
hahaha! Oh, that'd be amazing!
Best president ever
This flag means so much more then people will relise. I know more then one person takes what they have for granted. But this country's freedom was earned not given. Millions of people fought and died over the course of hundreds of years... This is the price of true freedom. Our brothers and sisters who fought for us and even lost there life for out well being. Thank you to all active duty or retired military personal I thank you so greatly for making this country a safer place while serving with your life.
With much love - Apple
my husband's grandfather was a marine who served in WW2, and even though he died peacefully at home at an old age, the marines still came out to honor him at his funeral and fire a salute. my husband and i both still have the shells from that salute as we both loved his grandfather very much. but more important to note for this video, the people who lined the streets with flags as the funeral procession drove by were not told to be there by our government, they came to pay respects to a stranger who gave his life for his country because they WANTED TO!!!
"Last Post" or Taps as it is commonly called. Is the same exact song as Reveille, it is just played to a slower tempo. It was developed during the civil war to announce that one side, or the other, were about to come onto the battlefield during a lull in the action to collect their dead. No one was to shoot until after the dead had been collected. Although it can be played on a trumpet, it is traditionally played on a bugle. When I was in the military and did funeral honors. We actually used a real bugle, with an electronic insert. Taps was played by the insert, and resonated through the horn. This allowed anyone, regardless of musical ability, to simulate the action of playing taps at a Veteran's funeral. The Army has several bugle calls, they all date back to when US soldiers were on horseback. The horses, not the soldiers, were trained to react to the different bugle calls. Depending on the Installation, there are up to 25 different bugle calls that you may hear played throughout the day. Most commonly, you will only hear 9. Taps is also played at midnight, every night, on every Army base. The common bugle calls are First Call (Morning),
Reveille, Assembly morning, Assembly afternoon, First Call (Retreat), Mess Call, To the Color, and Taps.
I remember at my Grandpa's funeral (Vietnam vet.) There were marines who came to the event and folded the flag for my grandma. I was very close to my grandpa and his announcement of death was the day I was at my lowest point. However, I felt respected by the marines and their service and brought hope in me . There is also another veteran funeral tradition called the 21 gun salute where a group of marines also shoot about 3 or 4 times (correct me if I'm wrong). I feel sorry for anyone who is related, being friends with, and people who are veterans not being thanked for their service.
Would my fellow Americans and anyone else be so kindly enough to join me on behalf of South Korea and give Hye Gyung Ahn a big THANK YOU for her service....I would also like to say that the I would be proud to have soldiers like her in our military...The ROK is lucky to have such lady representing them 🇰🇷 🇺🇸
I enjoy your videos.
Perhaps you could appear as a Citizen of Free South Korea, in civilian dress for part of the video.
The contrast would be interesting for many..........
I agree wear normal clothes bring your uniform if you wish.. I'm so glad you finally have freedom 🙂
show her the Chapman video... Medal of Honor recipient's acts caught by a drone video....
The American army and our people have no problem with the North Korean people or army. It's the government
Had to stop halfway through. Taps. Both parents Marines and many other close friends. I've heard taps and the 21 gun salute many times but it sounds different since I heard it at my mom's. Every note both filled me with love and pride and broke my heart at the same time. You still got a 👍
I really enjoy watching her reaction videos here
