    Phenomenal! So heartfelt! Got the ugly cry going on again! Trace is the national spokesperson for "THE WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT" I love his patriotism and devotion. I appreciate you Craig for the deeply touching respect you have for our country. I'm extremely proud of and respect you for the stand up kind of man you are! Your country and your family are very blessed to have you! The world "honorable" comes to mind. I'm so very glad that I found your channel about a year and a half ago. I love your content. Blessings and love from South Georgia USA ♥️😀🍟

    My late father served in Vietnam. War is horrible, and so many sacrificed their lives to keep others safe. Thank all for their service. 🫡 🇺🇸

    If you ever come to the states, wear a hat that say Veteran and see the reception you get, on the streets, in restaurants. You will have total strangers coming up to shake your hand and thanking you for your service or saluting you. For a lot of us, this is very important to remember. Love the way you respect our vets. Right back at you, thank you for your service.🇺🇸🇬🇧

      I'm sorry, but just read your comment and had to tell you that what you said is so true. My veteran hubby was in the States on exercise and was in uniform. Many people came to shake his hand, thanked him for his service and when they found out he was Canadian, well a group of people approached to say the same thing and began asking him all kinds of questions. At first, he didn't know how to react as it hadn't happened to him before. Thank you for saying this.

    It's the West Point Glee Club. West Point is the Army's Military Academy. Established in 1802.
    Sadly, the bloodiest battles and war that America has fought we fought each other.
    Trace also does songs called Semper Fi, dedicated to the Marines and one called the Empty Chair, which is something that our veteran organizations like the VFW (veterans of foreign wars) Amvets and American Legion do, it's a lone small table sitting by itself set for 1 person with military and American flags on it.

    Trace performed with the West Point Cadet Glee Club. As cadets of the United States Military Academy, they are officers in training for the US Army. As a member of the USMA class of 2017 and of the Cadet Glee Club, thank you for such a heartfelt reaction. Though this performance was before my time with the Glee Club, I had several opportunities to perform with Trace at later dates and I can confirm that his care for service men and women, and veterans is unparalleled! Thanks again, and keep up the amazing content!

    Another great military appreciation song by Trace is "I'm Still a Soldier". You definitely need to check that one out. Being you served yourself, I believe you will be able to relate to the song. If you're looking for something on the other end of the Trace spectrum, check out "One Hot Mama" and "Chrome". Both are really fun songs and the videos are great.

    CMA is the Country Music Awards. The West Point Glee Club is one of the U.S. Military Academy’s most visible cadet organizations. For over one hundred years, its members have touched audiences around the world with a model depiction of the Corps of Cadets through live performance in the nation’s finest concert halls, national network and feature film appearances, and CD and DVD recordings. The Glee Club enhances life at West Point through its traditional and ceremonial duties, and represents West Point and the U.S. Army at official events.

    I'm so glad you're enjoying Country music. It is ofc my favorite, and probably the only true American genre.
    Country music hasn't always gotten the respect and appreciation it deserves here at home, but it's made a huge leap in the last 30-40 years and is bigger than ever. It's nice to see it making an impression overseas as well.
    Trace is one of the greatest with an amazing voice, and has quite the catalog! Like many Country singers, he sings about real life, usually from a personal perspective....so you never know what you're gonna get. It may make you smile, laugh, cry, or even ponder the meaning of life. No matter what, it will leave an impression.
