The first fiddle notes of Arlington plays.
Me: Bursts into tears.
I've heard this song A Thousand Times and every time I become a blubbering idiot LOL
You got that right!!!!
Exactly the same here! 😭 It simply can't be helped. If you let ve and support our Troops. 💕🙏🇺🇸
Makes me cry every, single time that I hear it.
Me too
Trace Adkins & Toby Keith do a lot for our military They go over & do USO tours & if there military base near by they go to perform they bring the soldiers up & more
Daryl Worley has too.
Trace Adkins does Wounded Warriors too
Thats right , Im starting to think they were put there by god , all good things come from the good lord
@@nathantschetter1264 INDEED, AMEN ❣️🙏🇺🇸
My father is buried in Arlington in section 69. Both my ex and son can be buried there. So this song hits real close - too close - to home. If you aren't aware of the history, Arlington was the home of Confederate General Robert E. Lee (through his wife's family) and was appropriated by the Northern troops during the Civil War. There are only a few civilians of great renown buried there amongst the thousands of military heroes. I've stood at the Cenotaph in London and the feelings of great respect and honour are similar to the f÷elites evoked just by stepping onto the hallowedgrounds of Arlington. Thank you for your tributes to our military. It means a lot. 🏴🇬🇧🇺🇸😪
God bless
Thank you DonFather for your very special and patriotic reactions! My husband is a highly decorated Vietnam Veteran. He is eligible to be buried in Arlington when the time comes. I am a great granddaughter of a Scotsman, born in Selkirk, Scotland in 1850. His son, my grandfather was born in Wales, so I feel a special connection with you and your pro-USA reatctions! Thank you again.
God Bless your father. He is only a section over from my parents. Good company.
Thank you for your fathers sacrifice and the other members of your family !!! 💖🗽
I'm sorry for your loss but I'm so thankful men like your father exist and are willing to pay the cost of freedom. I've been to Arlington and while I didn't know your father's name, the prayers I've prayed for our veterans and fallen heroes covered him as well. God bless America!
I joined the Marines at 17. My parents had to sign for me to join. Prior to my departure to Vietnam as I walked through the Atlanta airport a young woman spat on me and called me a baby killer. I served 18 months in Vietnam, one month in Granada, and 8 months in Desert Shield / Storm. On my trip home from the last, my plane stopped off at Dover for refueling. We were required to disembark and driven to a hangar to freshen up. When we walked in we were greeted by hundreds of civilians forming an aisle to the far corner where a vet stood waving our flag and the started playing "I'm proud to be an American ". All of us that had endured the treatment during Vietnam and a few of the others were in tears to witness such a change. It is great that even today with our politics such as they are, our military personnel still get their due respect from most.
That's great to hear. I know all to well about my friends getting called baby killers. It's horrendous.
Thank you very much
My father fought in the war and a couple brothers served also. As a high school student in the early 70's I remember some of the disturbing things I saw on TV and had an awakening as to what was happening in our country. It was truly a shameful part of our country's history. I am so thankful that valuable lessons were learned from that time. Whether you agree with a war or not, the men & women fighting are not our enemies. They are defending our nation and each & every person's liberties & freedom. For that alone, we should be respectful and thankful. If you have a problem with the politics, take it up with a politician. And, might I add, if I were ever to spit on any soldier my father & brothers would have, at the very least, given me a tongue-lashing, a field day on my a** if I even thought about doing it a second time. lol. Thank you for your service, sir. Since we are on the topic - both my dad & mom had military burials at sea.
Thank you for your service.
@@edithdavis2848 And thank you for that.
Welcome home! I was spit on as well and went into hiding when I 'came home.' So sincerely, Welcome Home, Marine!
These men and women have protected peoples all over the world and have never asked for anything but a place to bury our dead. Thanks for understanding how proud we are of our fallen.
Country Music = Patriot Music. No other genre shows as much respect for our men and women in uniform. 🇺🇸
I have to say your are absolutely spot on with that statement
@Trace Adkins why do y’all make fake accounts and impersonate people?
I've always said that, Nikki !
Facts!
Don't forget about Rock. They are really patriotic as well.
Thanks for doing the reaction brother. It was literally everything I thought it would be and more. I'm glad you liked it as much as I do.
Thanks a lot Cody. I really appreciate your support
@@TheDonsChannel You should listen to this song could (Angel Flight) it will really break your heart. Here is the link:
ua-cam.com/video/70Ikj1hZDnw/v-deo.html
I believe you will really love it.
@@TheDonsChannel I just subscribed to your channel. I like your appreciation for mikitary...not military myself but i have great respect and appreciation for the military...please react to "IF YOU ARE READING THIS by Tim McGrew...I'm sure you'll like it...thanks in advance.
The one stone he shows clearly, Patrick Ray Nixon, was his Godson. The song was his tribute to Cpl Nixon.
I was in the same platoon as Cpl Nixon. He went home with me many times.
I miss his goofy smile and good nature.
@@HVACMarine Semper Fi Devil Pup.
Where “his” is the song writer not Trace. More often than we realize, the singer hasn’t written what they’re singing. George Jones much more known for doing that.
My Husband was a Combat vet, He didn't get Arlington, but he got a military site like it, the only thing my Husband didn't get, was the Horse drawn carriage! He got the 21 Gun salute, He got that damned Folded Flag! He got the whole shabang! What he got that was rare, was, His CO in Vietnam presided over the entire service. His Brothers that stood with him in combat, were his Honor Guard! He had one hell of a send off! Not many are blessed like that!
My dad is buried at a National Cemetery as he fought in Vietnam. There’s nothing like going there and seeing all of those headstones, with more being added every day. I hope I can visit Arlington someday. 🇺🇸
I sorry for your loss. I can relate. All three of my parents (Father, Mother and Stepfather) along with my Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles are buried in National Cemeteries. And my Brother, Cousin, Husband and myself will ve buried in one some day. I can't me from an almost entirely military family. Both men and women serve. Most have retired after 20+ years. It's just who we are. I pray for all of our troops, still here and those passed on. 💕🙏🇺🇸
I remember hearing this song for the first time. It came on the car radio, and I was driving down the road, bawling and squalling like a baby. That's when I became a Trace Adkins fan.
Same here.
You're a good man, my friend. Thanks for such a respectful response.
Thanks so much Don! I / we here in the states appreciate you very much brother! Much respect for you my friend and your country!! We will always be allies and your kind words for America are very much appreciated and received from your heart! Trace Adkins is an icon here Don! May God continue to bless you and yours my friend!! 🙏❤🇺🇸
Thank you very much for your kind words
Amen!💕🙏🇺🇸
And he is super humble I suppose (If not his crew) his latest video was done in our town just outside my window
This is the first time I’ve heard this song. I keep looking at my husband, whose asleep next to me, and thanking god he came home to me after his tour in Iraq. I live in VA and I’ve visited Arlington several times. The feelings of pride mixed with sadness is overwhelming.
Yeah I totally get that. It's mixed emotions for sure
Very proud of the women and men who have served for my country
Picked a tear jerker today did ya? I don't usually care for country music but songs like this hit me right in the feels.
Yes I definitely did. Beautiful song a very difficult to react to. Very hard to talk afterwards
Country music can rip your heart tout like no other genre.
@@beegee1960 Very true! I listen to everything. I'm very much a Metal fan! I do love Country too! Well, I'm not really a rap fan. But, I do love Tom MacDonald! Country just pulls the heart strings like no other. However, Five Finger Death Punch have gotten me with their Military songs and videos. Wrong Side Of Heaven's video has me a sobbing mess every time. 💕🙏🇺🇸
@@barbaravance6774 Stole my song I was gonna mention lol. Another great 5 finger tear-jerker is When the seasons change
Trace Adkins also sang Till The Last Shots Fired. It is a live performance at the Country Music Awards. He is backed by the West Point Glee Club. It is a song that is stunning. Give it a listen, think you’ll find the it heartfelt.
I cry at this song. I was stationed at fort Myer. That’s where the home of the old guard is. I’ve seen so many funerals. If you ever get a chance walk through Arlington by yourself. It’s a feeling that I can describe.
It is very moving and unforgettable. I could not help by cry.
"If You're Reading This" - Tim McGraw
My service in the USAF was over 6yrs b4 this song came out. It makes me think of the families of my brothers and sisters that didn't make it home & brings me to tears every time I here it. I would truly appreciate it if you reacted to it. Thank you. 🇺🇸
Thank you very much. It sounds like another that really pulls on the heartstrings.
I will check it out
@@TheDonsChannel Thank you so much 💜
Twelve years ago today, one of my wingmates was killed in Afghanistan. He has his little piece of Arlington. Rest in Peace Mark.
Thank you for appreciating our American culture and thank you for your reactions. Respect.
Oh oh, this song makes me cry every time. Trace Atkins is a heartbreaker without singing a note.
" Angel Flight " by Radney Foster was my son's favorite song . I lost him in 2018 , effects of PTSD . Today is his birthday , and he was a Marine !
Aw Janet I am truly sorry to hear that. It's heartbreaking. I wish you a lovely day.
I know this will be a tough day for you so I hope it will be as good a day for you as possible.
So very sorry for your loss, Janet. What a great way to be honoring him by watching this video. I thank both your son & your family for your service to our country. I'm not familiar with the song you suggested but in honor of your son & his birthday I'm leaving this site to listen to it. Take care. Edit: I listened to the song & had to let you know the song is beautiful. I will need to listen to more Radney Foster music in the coming days. His voice is beautiful and the lyrics are powerful. Boy, the tears have been falling tonight. Thank you for introducing me to this song.
I am not generally a country music fan,. but this song brought chills and tears. As a Navy vet, it hits my soul.
8:15 I think we as a nation reevaluated our treatment of our service members after the horrible treatment of the returning Vietnam veterans. My dad was just young enough to miss being drafted but saw many of his older friends leave and only a couple came home. He says that he always felt bad knowing that our nation sent them off but when confronted by the visual of war welcomed them home with hate. many of those veterans are there at the airports to welcome the new warriors home so they are given the respect they never had. Now we can hate the idea of "conflict " but separate our feelings about the war from the people we are sending to fight it.
Well said. Thank you!
To everyone out there; Memorial Day is approaching, PLEASE DON’T say “happy Memorial Day” instead say “have a respectful Memorial Day”. Thank you.
Thank you. If they stopped making it a Holiday and went back to a day to honor our fallen,and geather our living to be thankful they are here.
So true people see it as a day of beer and bbq its sad
A challenge for all: if you ever see a soldier or veteran sitting by themselves eating or at the park, ask if it's ok to sit with them. Ask them how their day is. Give them a moment of normal interaction. So many military members and vets feel alienated from the civilian world. Giving them a moment of normalcy is a huge gift for them.
This one kicks me in the gut every time. Thanks for this reaction. My husband (American born scot) is an OIF vet, his granddad was at pearl harbour, my granddad was 101 airborne ❤️🇺🇸
As a Disabled American Veteran who served over 20 years in the USAF, I've thought about having my Ashes sent to Arlington. I am going to leave that up to my Kid. After seeing this maybe we'll discuss it further.
Thank you for your long service, much respect 🇺🇸
If I was your child I would want you somewhere close to me. But, I would sacrifice what I wanted to have my father's final resting place be at Arlington. What an honor and one you so deserve! When discussing this with your "kid" just tell him/her they are welcome to come and visit anytime! :) Wishing you many happy, healthy, blessed years to come! Thank you for your service, sir.
Thank you for your service, dear one. Definitely figure out what is to be done in advance. The pain and grief is made worse when everything has to be figured out quickly, as it was with my WW2 dad. I would have buried him at Arlington had I known better. It's a good idea to have all of your papers in one place so your loved ones don't have to search. Much love and respect from Chicago 💞
Thank you for all your support and love 💓😘💓💓
@@emmef7970 Thank you for all your support and love 💓😘💓💓
My parents took me to Arlington when I was about 8 and I took my kids a few years ago. Arlington is one of those places that everyone needs to go see and pay respect to those that have fought and died for our country. As a veteran myself and whose dad, both grandfathers,7 uncles and a few cousins that have and/or are still serving thank you for doing the video.
There's no way to explain the feeling, walking through Arlington, and hearing Taps being played in the distance. Very nice reaction, sir.
Everytime I hear this song, I immediately think on my Great Uncles who fought in WWII, Uncle who was in the Korean War, and two Uncles that was in Vietnam. They all got to come home. Their eyes used to cloud over whenever they thought back on those they lost on the battlefields and at sea.
They've all passed now, but I think, and thank them, for their service so many times
I come from a military family. this song knocks me to my knees every time I hear it.
I don’t know if there’s a UA-cam video but the story goes that during the Civil War, the opposing generals were West Point classmates. The Lees, related to George Washington’s step kids, had abandoned Arlington. They asked the Union general where to bury the men killed in the defense of DC, and he told them to use Mrs. Lee’s Rose Garden.
Thank you sir for your reaction to this song. As an American I am humbled that you would show such respect and emotion to do a song about our fallen military people. Bless you, your family, and your country. Again sincerely thank you
My Dad served in the Navy during WWII & is buried at Golden Gate National Cemetery just south of San Francisco (sadly, my Mom is buried next to him). They're on a hill & have a great view of the San Francisco Bay. For those in the U.S. who may not know, the burial in our National Cemeteries is free for veterans & their spouses. (Not sure if it's for all veterans or if there are requirements to meet).
I just discovered your channel recently & really enjoy your heartfelt reactions!
Thank you for your Story Brenda. Thank you also for your kind words
Just six years ago I laid my husband to rest with full military honors and a piper to send him on his way. This song always touches my heart.
God Bless you 💙
beautiful song and a great reaction. Im in tears with you.
I was definitely emotional. Caught me out big time
Hey, no words are sufficient to describe how this song tugs the heartstrings.
Very true. Wow. Powerful. I never saw it coming.
God bless you, Brother! You’re just not human if this one doesn’t choke you up a little. God bless all of my fellow US and UK veteran brothers and sisters. May he bless and keep them always! 🇺🇸🇬🇧🏴
This song touches me so much. I have seen a few reactions for younger people and they didn’t know what Arlington! It’s crazy! I’ve been there and you can feel the honor there.
@Trace Adkins this isn’t Trace. Please don’t use such an honorable Man as a joke.
You need to do his song Till the last shots fired live at the CMA’s even more emotional
Thank you for loving my aspirations how long have you been a fan
im half scot on my dads side, im so happy to see this reaction, i am a gold star family and every single time i stand in arlington, i grieve as if my soul is being torn out because i can feel the loss of the thousands of young men who are there... its one of the most beautiful, peaceful yet heartbreaking places ive ever been.
You might like to react to the David Ball song" Riding with Private Malone"...
I had the privilege of visiting Arlington National Cemetery many years ago. Truly sacred ground.
The tears are an honor for our fallen. We appreciate the tears, they nurture the graves of the brave. God Bless those who fight for freedom throughout the world. !!!!!
I was fortunate enough to attend a meet and greet with Trace, and thanked him for this very song. He was so humble about it. He put his heart and soul into this one. Thank you for your heartfelt reaction.
My pleasure
I still cry, every single time I see this, or hear the song! And an a grizzled old man, served 27 years in the US Army, and Love Trace!
Great reaction! This is just such a powerful song. And Trace Adkins voice is deep and powerful. You should definitely check out "Till the last shots fired". It is a beautiful tear jerking song. Thank you for all the love and respect you are showing our country. We appreciate it.
I live in the city where the National D-Day Memorial is and recently one of our fallen was finally brought home from Korea and his funeral procession drove through the Memorial... and a few years back the last "Bedford Boy" (tragic story as to why we have the memorial here... it's here on UA-cam somewhere... check it out sometime) had his procession drive through there also. I come from generations of veterans, Navy, Army, Army Air Corps (now known as the Air Force) and even the Canadian Army. Lack of respect shown by people today simply infuriates me. I'm so glad to see your reactions and yeah, we feel the respect you have all the way here across the pond. Well done and I hope you continue for a long time to come!
God Bless all of them men and women who paid the price of keeping us safe 🛡⚔️🙏🇺🇸
As a military veteran, I thank you for reacting and giving the respect to our service members. We are thankful for those who are thankful for what we’ve done, it’s true. I appreciate these videos. Much love.
My pleasure Amanda
I'm crying! First time hearing this song! I'm very proud of our military members past and present and the sacrifices they willingly take upon themselves for all Americans, including my late father a WW11 Veteran and Purple Heart recipient. May I say to you sir that I have massive respect for you and the way you give respect and graciousness to our Armed Forces! I admire and appreciate your heart and spirit! What a fine man you are! God bless you
Thank you very much Louise. I really appreciate your kind words
Pure patriotism! I love this song. We sure could teach this to some of our Americans today. They have lost their way. So heartwarming to see you react as you did. I feel the same way. Thank you.
It's fitting that today on memorial day I found this. I've been to Arlington and seen the rows and rows of stones, my father fought in WWII when we buried him we had the military service with the folding of the flag, gun salute and taps, it was very moving. Thank you Don
Wow, it make cry and proud of all the veterans. God bless all.
I’ve heard this song hundreds of times and it still chokes me up so don’t feel bad. I still cry.
Yeah it's difficult to not be moved. I really struggled with it. Beautiful song
Trace Adkins God Bless you, Mr. Atkins. Thank you for your support of our military. I've had the honor or seeing you twice. Once at Buck Owens funeral and once in concert here in Bakersfield. You've always been one of my favorites.
@@cherylann9781 Just FYI, that is NOT the real Trace Adkins, it is a fake account, most likely created to get in contact with commenters here in order to later steal their personal information. Trace's real and verified account can be found here: ua-cam.com/channels/mTEL5T3oU2EiD1YhI8dTWQ.html
Joe Alesi Thanks, I came to conclusion also.
You should react to If You're Reading This by Tim McGraw! It's such an emotional tear jerker song, it's great. And to all you military members out there, thank you for your service and thank you for keeping us safe!!
My husband is interred at the Veterans Cemetery in our state. On the day of his military memorial service one of the 7 veterans who were to perform the 21 gun salute was sick. So he only got an 18 gun salute. They gave us the casings from the bullets and of course the flag. I am really moved by this video and the song.
Stella I am truly sorry for your loss. Thank you very much for watching and I wish you all the best 💙
Well, that one just zapped me; once again a lovely, sensitive reaction. Thank you, AGAIN!!!
Thank you
It's hard to put into words the emotions that it brings out there's a lot of songs that cause my eyes to water about our veterans and heroes that have laid down their lives so we can live free so much respect for all military personnel and GOD bless them one and all
Don't know if you've heard the song before, but another really good one in "8th of november" by big and rich!!!!!!!!
Thank you for this reaction and with our MEMORIAL day coming the 31st of this month it means even more...
I appreciate so much your reaction to our patrisam and our love for our country. But I would love to hear of your history of your country also. I appreciate your heart. Again that accent is everything....
Heartfelt & overwhelming Reaction!! Trace honored all soldiers that sacrificed everything!! Another tribute to those who died because of 911 attacks is Alan Jackson’s “Where were You When the World Stopped Turning”! Thanks for this reaction!!
My pleasure. Thank you
This song always chokes me up. My dad isn't in Arlington because he was cremated but he was still a veteran.
Two other songs of Trace's
Semper Fi and Till the last shot's fired
Another singer- actually an American Idol contestant Josh Gracin (He was an active duty Marine during the show) Has a song from the other side of the coin- The Other Little Soldier, the point of view from the little ones we leave behind.
This is so profoundly beautiful and beyond touching. Another video you should watch that goes hand and glove with this is “Angel Flight” that brings me to tears every time. God bless American, God bless our military, God bless our first responders. I am so very grateful and proud for your sacrifice and dedication, especially when you are being so disrespected these days. Real Americans love you and hold you dear.
ua-cam.com/video/70Ikj1hZDnw/v-deo.html
Trace Adkins- Till the Last Shot's Fired is amazing as well
I can't believe I've never heard this song. My gosh what a tear jerker. Man. 🙏❤️🤍💙
Wow. This made me very emotional. I just lost my grandfather this last December. He was a WW2 vet. A better example of a man would be hard to find. I miss you grandpa. 😪
I think you might also appreciate Welcome to Hell by Trace Adkins. There is no official video because he only performs this song on the 9/11 anniversary. There are a few live videos of him performing it, in the one from Ramstein AFB he explains how he wrote the song on September 12th and what he was going through those days right afterwards. Another great one is Til the Last Shots Fired. I love the respect you pay to all military servicemen and women. I live in the Washington DC area and volunteer every year to place flags on the veterans graves on Memorial Day and wreaths at Christmas at Quantico National Cemetery. Walking through Arlington National Cemetery, seeing the Tomb of the Unknowns and JFKs eternal flame and nearby Iwo Jima Memorial are all sights I recommend to anyone visiting Washington DC. I also recommend going downtown to the Vietnam Memorial as well.
Trace did his song, Til the Last Shot's Fired, on the CMAs some years back. Did it with the a military choir. And it was incredible.
Thanks for doing this, mate.
My pleasure. Thank you
Beautiful! I've been to Arlington, it was a very moving experience.
It’s so eye opening and emotional to walk/drive thru Arlington. Gravestones as far as the eye can see 😭🇺🇸.
I've heard this song many, many times and tears always fill my eyes.
"We're thankful for those thankful for what we've done." I'm one! Amazing video, which I can't pass whenever I see a link. Trace has such a GREAT voice, enunciates so well, and I like the way he sits solo as if he's the soldier telling his story.
I’ve seen/heard this song at least a hundred times and tear up every single time.
God Bless our Beautiful Veterans. Thank God for every one of you. I know we take so much for granted for you and your families sacrifices.
I just discovered you channel a few days ago. I’m definitely sticking around, love your reactions. There was definitely a big reaction from you in this video! Any man who can shed tears is a real man in my eyes. My father is buried in a military cemetery. He served at the very end of WWII. Mom is buried with him.....they were married 65 years and are forever together. 💜
Thank you very much for watching and your kind words. God bless. And respect to your Father.
Thanks again
This is one of my favorite songs by Trace Atkins. I always cry when I hear it. Growing up both of my parents instilled in me the importance of the people who fought for our freedoms. Without them our freedoms would not exist. My dad told me my veteran grandfather would take him to vet events and memorial services to pay respect to them. The USA and England currently have great respect to service men and veterans. My dad was a teen during the Vietnam war. He did not serve, but he did see how horribly the returning service men were treated at the time. They had actual trash, and also vegetables, etc thrown at them. They were called unspeakable names. This was nation wide in the United States at the time. They were not thanked for their sacrifice or service. Even USA celebrities were horrible towards the Vietnam servicemen. The stories I have heard about the treatment are nearly unspeakable. My mother told me that due to how they were treated back then a lot of Vietnam vets would not tell others about thier military service, what war they fought nor wear the veteran hats and labels. It has only been in the last 30 or so years that Vietnam veterans talk about thier service, wear the veteran hats, etc in public. Thankfully how the US public treated Vietnam veterans has changed drastically for the better.
HI My friend sent me this video because he knows I was born in Scotsman but live in America since 1981 from a Scottish father who died and a American mother who brought us to AMERICA , I was a FDNY EMT On 9/11 and was involved in both collapses , Before, during, after , I want to thank you as a Scotsman that loves SCOTLAND AND AMERICA fighting for freedom Please keep up the Awesome work , And boy how I MISS FISH N CHIPS ☺️💪
Thanks very much. You're not wrong you can't beat Scottish fish and chips they are unreal
This song gives me chills every time I hear it. It's because if every body in that piece of Earth that we live free, as well as those vets who, like myself, didn't have to make the ultimate sacrifice. Thank you to everyone who serves and has served.
Thanks for doing this reaction brother, it truly hits home. Also you'll be interested to know that there is a house on a hill in Arlington National Cemetery (if its still there) that was Robert E Lee's home and while he was off fighting the war the union army were burying bodies around the home so no one could live there after Mrs. Lee died. Because she was in a wheelchair she couldn't go to court to pay her taxes and surrendered the property to the government. Later Lee's son filed a lawsuit against the government for taking the property without due process. Now here's the kicker, if memory serves me right, it was Abraham Lincoln's son that represented the Lee family in court. Cool hey?
31 years in the service and saw a lot of brothers and sisters laid to rest. This song is a magnificent tribute to their sacrifice and the loss to their families. Thanks for your emotions when reviewing it. Someday I'll rest with them in Arlington. You can't have better company for your final retirement home.
My cousin died in Vietnam a week before he was supposed to come home. Arlington is a haunting place to visit. I think you’d make a great American! 🇺🇸
Trace Adkins is a spokesperson for the Wounded Warrior Project here in the States.
My father-in-law is laid to rest in Arlington. He served in eight theaters of war throughout his military career. It means the world when an artist like Trace Adkins performs such a moving tribute. It is beautiful to see your passion for our nation and for those who stand up and take arms to ensure that we remain free. Thank you, sir.
My pleasure
I can't listen to this song without crying. Thanks again for loving our songs. That tear was enough of a reaction.
I feel you my friend. Both of my parents are buried in Arlington. I miss visiting there since I moved to Colorado eight years ago. Visiting Arlington left me in awe every time. Peace on you. Cheers.
This song always brings the tears. Such a beautiful song. Enjoy
Thank you so much have you been to my concert
Thank you for caring and showing that you care.. And there is nothing wrong with a man showing honest emotion over a truly sad reality. I salute all who fought the good fight and gave their all so we could be free. And I salute all who served and areserving.
My father in law was buried with a 21 gun salute. I will never forget the coffin, draped in the flag. After the salute soldiers removed the flag and folded so reverently and handed to mom! Long years later the flag is on the fireplace mantle in it's case, reminding us what these people did for us!
Country is about the only genre that puts military and first responders front and center and almost all artists have made at least one song in tribute. Great video mate.
Thank you very much
Thank you for your heartfelt reaction. I cry every time I hear this song and it brings back the memory of my Father's military funeral.
Trace also does Till The Last Shots Fired...😭😭... it's amazing but it's another tearjerker
I told you you’d love ‘Arlington’. I’m so glad you did this one...makes me cry every time I hear it. It hits me in the heart hard. Bless you, hon.
Please say Thank You to your grumpyoldMarine for his service.
Thank you so much for reacting to this song. Your heartfelt comments for America touch me deeply. I am a proud American who is honored to say that every branch of our military has been represented in my family, from Normandy to Vietnam, Desert Storm, and Afghanistan/Iraq. Two songs I hope you will consider doing "Name On A Wall" by Jimmy Fortune, and an old one called "Little Barefoot Boy" by Bobby Vinton. I think you would like them.
You love our country more than some of our own citizens! Thank you for the love and respect you show. I wonder if you were a US Soldier in a previous life. Might want to have a past life regression done to see. 👍🇺🇸❤️ 🏴
Thank you for doing this video, from a US Veteran, and a Scots as well. I had never seen this video, and I am not afraid to say, I am sitting here wiping the tears away. Thank you to Mr. Adkins for honoring our fallen in such a braw way.
