September 12, 2001. I was packing up my Suburban with a fellow volunteer firefighter and we started the trip from West Virginia to NYC. Arrived the next day, and went straight to work, looking for and recovering my 343 brothers that I lost. Spent a week at the Ten House (Ladder 10), grabbing an hour sleep here and there, basically working around the clock.
You were absolutely right about all of America coming together, and I'm not talking about the firefighters and first responders. I'm talking EVERYONE. Even businessmen and women helping us clean up, making way for all of the ladder and pumper trucks, and even ambulances. Being from a very small town in West Virginia, it was overwhelming to see so many people in one place.
Thank you for your sacrifices and your service to our country as well… not everyone who should be thanked wears camo..
No need to thank me, but I really do appreciate the sentiment. I felt I was just doing my civic duty as a firefighter and a patriot. I was just a lowly "level 1" volunteer, but I felt that there was something I could do, even if it was to just clean up trash and pass out bottles of water.
@@dougdennis3681 I live outside of Houston .. during hurricane season there are many “lowly” individuals who make a huge difference in people’s lives.. 😊
My brother Fire Chief John Ellis (also head of Los Angeles Hazmat) took all his vacation and got a flight with military to NYC on 9/12/2001. He packed his gear and didn’t get home for five weeks. God bless you
I've heard people say they miss the USA of 9/12/2001. We were all together. United. Didn't care about race or politics. How have we fallen so far in just a little over 20 years? What will it take to reunite us as a country?
Those of us alive/adult on September 11/12/etc, are absolutely ashamed of the way this country is divided now. It hurt my soul. Thank you for your service ❤
It is absolutely crazy how far divided we have become since then.
@@TormentedVet_Reactions It breaks my heart 💔
@@ashleyharris2883 I couldn't agree more.
They dems back then gave the impression of being united. They were never united. They never let a good crisis go to waste.
The events of that day were caused by the C.I.A and Mossad. Do you really think they had plans to unite the U.S.?
I play Aaron Lewis every day, over and over! Wish I could see him in person.
I just wanted to take a moment and thank you for your service and sacrifice for our country. Thank you sir. 🇺🇸
I listen to this song everyday I miss our old AMERICA.🇺🇸
GOD BLESS the USA 🇺🇸🙏💙
I have to say as a vet this song hits hard as hell I wonder all the time if the division and shit going on in this country is really what me and my brothers fought for
I feel the same brother and wonder the same thing all the time also. Stay safe.
Thank you for your service to and for our country. My family appreciates all you veterans.
Dude... you would love my mom! When I was a kid, I thought she was the weirdest Mom in the world. She made each of us 5 kids think of someone we knew in the community or the church and break out the crayons and construction paper and hand make them a thank you card. Then she would drive us to their home to deliver it.
As a child I didn't understand it. But now... I am so thankful for the values she instilled in me. She also had a super fun tradition of making fruit baskets that we delivered to the Emergency Room, the Fire Dept., and the Police Station. As a thank you for those had to work on Christmas Eve, and New Years Eve. We never signed the enclosed card with our names. She just wrote 'From a community who appreciates you.'
Thank you for your service to our country sir my father served 20 years in the air force as a pj rescue medic
As a fellow combat vet I cant help but feel the same as you do. The country we left to fight for is not the country we returned home to. Its sad how much hate we receive for our service and how many fake thank you's we get from those who are completely willing to destroy what we fought for.
This song tells me it is time to stand up... and fight back . Whether military or not, but as Americans. It's time ....
He’s not the only one. What’s going on in our country scares me. History doesn’t change. We need to remember and learn from it. It seems that everyone is going crazy and having conspiracy theories make them do horrible things. Past prejudices reignited. Right’s being threatened. Service members fighting for our country that is great but being is being torn apart by hate. He is not the only one. Thank you for your amazing insights and responses to this song. I totally agree with you.
This song is an anthem for me. I felt like the only one until I heard this.
As a former military I promise you not the only one. I love this country with all I have and we help protect it with all my life and it's freedom.
Great commentary and reaction video. Thank you and all veterans who read this. God Bless the USA! We shall take this country back!
I'm an Australian and this song just resonates right in the mind, heart and memories of my father fighting in Vietnam with the Australian Army. Seeing these alternate cultural displays of "pride" as in the sin, you think what the hell have we gotten ourselves into. The values and memories of times in the 70's, 80's and 90's - lost on a new generation unless you have raised children in time learnt values and critical thinking. I heard that the new generation of kids are looking for a grounded existence and have returned to the church. Much to the chagrin of the Woke DIE experts. It is wonderful to see that happening, plus the conservative return in the USA.
Thank you for your service sir! I cant take anymore division. They need to stop erasing history. Your comments about the song love touching. I don't know how we're all going to undo all this without another civil war I would hate to see that happen. I feel like we are the unUnited states of America. Thank you again!
Aaron is amazing. I loved him in the rock band Staind...and I respect him as a solo artist. He cares. He means this. To the core. You should listen to his song, "Folded Flag" geez...that one hurts. My Dad was a "folded flag" from Vietnam. It hits deep...but is an amazing take on the loss of a soldier. Much respect to him for singing both this song and my recommended one.
Love this song.
I cry when I hear this song. I remember the 11th. More importantly I remember the 12. First came sadness. Then hate. And we are Americans what can we do. I miss September 12th. I’m over the hate. We can agree to disagree when politics come into play. But my love for this country runs deep. We need to get back to being Americans ..Thank for your
service…
Man, I have to tell you. I LOVE Aaron Lewis. His vocals are fire. He tells the truth and every single one of his songs speaks to me in some way. He speaks the truth and he's passionate AF. That being said. You're reaction hit me just as deep. He's not the only one. You are not the only one. There are so many whole will stand up for this country that the opposition doesn't realize and has no clue. Thank you so much for your service and everything you and every other veteran or active service member do 24/7/365. So many of us appreciate everything and I guarantee you we have your back.
I am also a Vet and had the experience of seeing him perform this song in concert. I was impressed that at the start of the event he said, (I'm paraphrasing), These are my opinions, my beliefs and if you don't like it, there's the door. He sat on a stool just him with his guitar and sang this song.... AMAZING! The crowd was silent, until he got to "I'm not the only one". I'll never forget it.
My friend, and high school classmate co-wrote this with Aaron! It touched my heartstrings too! Thank you for your service! I am ever grateful to you!
Thank you for your service. As a civilian, this song broke my heart for those who put their life on the line to protect me. ❤
I know what to say, MY HEART AND SOUL, go's out to ALL Vet's and anyone who stands up to defend this GREAT COUNTRY! AMERICA!!!!
This hits anyone who loves this country straight in the heart! I have three brothers who served in the USAF! I have a lot of friends who are LEOs. This song, from the very first time I heard it, and every time since, brings tears to my eyes and a deep pain in my heart for what's happening to the Country I love! And no, he's not the only one...
🇺🇸❤️#militarymomma. Son came home under our flag. And youngest son went in. Marine and Navy mom. Army wife. That being said. We need to do better. I believe we can. ❤
It's about being a good American. Thank everyone on here that served..
Home Free, God Bless America.
Thank you for your service…🇺🇸
AMEN brother!! I LOVE MY COUNTRY BUT............. I FEAR .Y GOVERNMENT!!!
This song made me cry …
Thank you for your sacrifice & service to our country! I truly mean that, it's not something that I just say! I appreciate you!
Thank you for your dedication and service.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻God Bless you Sir.😢 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you kindly!!!
Was raised just outside of D.C...been there many times..beautiful
Hail BROTHA. USAF 239th CBCS here. Joined 9-12-01....I'm out now, but I'll never give up my oath up...I will fight against any enemy, foreign or domestic.....stay strong
I appreciate your service to our country. My hats off to you.
I didn't service but I would fight here and die for this country for my kids
This song is the foundation of the American Soldier and civilians.
Thank you for your service.
I have so many family members that served. I’ve lost family members. I’m a woman with two boys and I would happily bleed and take a bullet to keep my boys safe. I’m also sick of the people that get butthurt about everything. Grow some balls!
You are spot on. Ty for your service
I love this country. I am a 66 yr old female and if I needed to defend my country I would not hesitate. All of this hate and division breaks my heart. We are the United States of America. United!! We need to act like it. You can't change the past. You learn from it. Thank you for reviewing this song. Does make me feel good that there are folks who feel the same.
I do agree with you. It's politics!
...so it doesn't get repeated...
Amen brother.
Thank you for your service! God Bless You! We Stand With You!
An amazing and powerful song that touches my soul. I'm a proud patriot, not a veteran but from a long line of veterans stretching back to the Revolutionary War, before we were a nation. God bless them and all veterans and thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Aaron Lewis has a lot of family that served. He has some new great songs “I ain’t made in China” I think it “I’m going fishing” it way more than about fishing. Recommend seeing him in person his concerts are great.Thank you for your service!
The live version is even better
Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it 😢 🙏
💯
Damn such a strong message, hits us vets very hard!!!! Definitely not the only one, we don’t fight the fight solo! Semper Fi!!!
I just wanted to put my thoughts here. As citizens of the United States, we have the RESPONSIBILITY to honor our Constitution and, if necessary, fight for America. I also believe we owe it, as citizens, to honor our service members whom have sacrificed so much such as yourself, by fighting against evil. We don't need to be a military servicemember to fight; this country was built on ordinary citizens doing what must be done. The citizens of the United States may be called upon to act, and if so, we must. Although we have gotten weak as a country after years and years of a great life, it's honestly time for us to toughen up and do what we MUST to save this country. God bless you for your service!
To all the vets that made it back, I just wanna say 3 things:
Thank you for your service!
Welcome home!
For those that made the ultimate sacrifice... I honor y'all! Thanks 🇺🇸
I honor our soldiers and you. Thank you Sir.
It was something more, yeah it was something more.
That speaks volumes to me.
We are NOT the only country willing to destroy our past, BUT OUR POLITICIANS DAMN SURE DO!!
Thank you for your service. We owe our servicemen and women everything. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for your service.
I agree we can't change our history we can only learn from it so we don't make the same mistakes. my dad was a Marine and I'm just glad he's not alive to see what we have become. leave our statues alone and cancel culture needs to be stopped.
Oh shit I found you
@stevebournite184 oh hi. yeah I really wanted to see what a vet thought of this one. but you can always find me on any HARDY reaction. but cool running into you off burbons channel. first time,and I love the name change.
@@Melody-bourbonite4life thanks
@@Melody-bourbonite4life yeah I was surfing reaction channels
ME too, Ms. Ravenwolf. I come from a long line of military, with my father being part of "the greatest generation" of WWII. He was and raised us to be patriotic with an immense love for our country. I am so brokenhearted to see what has become of our country. I'm glad my daddy is not here to see what we have done to the country he loved so much.
Thank you keep me safe! God bless you! Let the ungrateful not receive the blessings!
Aaron did an incredible job expressing an awful lot of angles in such a heartfelt way. It's actually hard or almost impossible to collect all the thoughts I've had (veteran) listening to this on my Spotify playlist dozens of times. It's actually very hard to listen to without emotion, and frankly just impossible to be moved every single time. I doubt that I'll ever get used to this one.
Bring back the LOVE feeling of 9/12....thanks for all you've done....and are doing....peace
Thanks for your service brother
Amen Brother . 🇺🇸
This song shoukd hit hard for ALL AMERICANS!! we have to stop letting DC divide us. When we stand together, as neighbors again like decades ago,we will win.
I THANK YOU AND OUR HROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO ANSWERED THE CALL. ❤️ 💕 💗 💖
Preach it brother! This song resonates.Btw, thank you for your service. I really appreciate it! 👏🏻👏🏻🇺🇸
Liked & subscribed, Brother. I couldn't agree more with your sentiments on this reaction. September 12, 2001 was indeed the most united I've ever seen our country's people, regardless of any demographics. Much respect and many thanks for your service to our Nation. And, I'm not the only one.💪
God Bless you brother!!!
Thank you for your service brother!!! I am a policeman and feel completely abandoned. Retire in a year thank god. Everything is about race and I am done with it. This is an amazing song and I wish more people would really listen to it. Weird lots of people called him racist after he released it.
Sorry I'm a little late to the party here, but I just wanted to say thank you and everyone like you for your sacrifices, even though a simple thank you will never seem like enough to me, I am forever grateful ❤
Love you my brother…thanks for your service, and I’m GREATLY proud of my service. Great reaction and song from Aaron Lewis!!
love ya too brother. thank you for your service as well
Aaron Lewis - They Call Me Doc ❤

❤❤LOVE AARON'S SONGS I heard it since last year

You are not wrong Brother! This song embodies what it is to be a Patriotic American!
God bless you and your service
He was indeed a soldier.
1st of all , Thankyou for your service 2ndly this song hits the nail on the head
First I want to say thank you for your service a thank you to all the men and women that had the balls to stand up for our country because the majority of our country did not thanks
Thank you for you support!!!
Thanks for your service
Thank you for your support!
Amen brother 🙏♥️💯💪🏽
I am very patriotic American, always have been. This song hits that part of me, the fear of the USA falling
I spent 22 years in the military defending individual liberties and responsibilities in a nation I love. I hate what I see going on in our country, where is the melting pot? This song tore me up, I am not going to lie.
Thank you for your service.
Ninja's cut onions every time I hear this song, brother. Gulf War/OIF/OEF, now medially retired. Thanks for the review...
Thank you so much for putting your life on the line to protect people like me that you don't even know. Much Respect May God truly bless you.
I love Aaron and this song ❤
god bless you guys and even as a german thank you for your service i love you guys
"War is when the government tells you who your enemy is...Revolution is when you decide that for yourself"--Ben Franklin
I love your reactions. Real and raw. I love this song. God bless and thank you for your service.
No need to apologize for having a strong emotional reaction to this video and what it's saying. It just shows the strong pride you have in what we fought for. I served during Desert Storm, and this video hits home just as hard for me.
I have listened to this song sooo many times and it makes me cry EVERY time. Thank you for your service my new friend!
I just you’re Chanel i subbed immediately, I have a deep respect for the military. America was founded on a idea that we don’t need a Monarchy, Europeans has a deep hatred for our way of life
im with you brother im nit the only one
Hope this song opens ppls eyes to what they're doing to us all in this country and with no disregard for any of us, we've become so divided that it's gonna be really hard to overcome it, but hopefully everyone stands up and fights for this beautiful country,
First off, thank you so much for your service. As bad as it is right now, it would be a lot worse if it wasn’t for people like yourself. I pray every day that things change specifically for people like you. I can’t imagine what you feel. Much love brother.
I have always said WTF is wrong with our government, why? why the hell
erase our history? I want my grand children to be taught the actions of our
ancestors, our military's sacrifices because our country was deserving of
fighting for. Our citizens deserved the freedoms earned by blood. The service members
deserve RESPECT, not to be put in a closet and hidden.
Sir I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your service.
💯 Much love........ keep sharing the truth please.
Great Britain does the same caters to people who dont give 2 about the country this song hits deep
We’re indebted to AL for writing such a poignant ballad and performing it with such beauty and conviction. And thank you and all other service members for what you’ve lived through and fought for. Remember the quote “Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it,” I’m paraphrasing of course. Check out Irish Road by Mikele Buck. It’s about his service as a Marine in Iraq. It is so powerful and heartbreaking. I’ve shed many tears listening to it. Hauntingly beautiful. 💔♥️🇺🇸
