    This is for unsung hero. You know who you are. Thanks for serving your country, my country. If it weren't for our vets and current military we would be doomed. Ilove the U.S.A.

    Iam an old retired fireman. This song puts into sound the sad feelings that are unable to be said in any words , in 25 years of seeing death in peoples own homes there is needed some form of that surpasses the human heartache.
    I am able to remember and cry and just say it is just the smoke from 50 years ago making my eyes water . God bless

    This song really hit home after having a remembrance/Memorial service for my Uncle Gary who was shot in Vietnam. I didn't know him, but listening to this song, and hearing how my Uncle was taking from this world really hit home. I can not begin to imagine the pain my Grandparents felt, or their brothers and sisters when they heard the news. He was within 5 months of coming home.

      My dad served and made it through it, but this was one of his favorite songs. I pulled out his camera today that he took pictures with when he was over there. I realized for the first time the bottom of it had a label that had his name and serial number.
