I have been shown in the files of the War Department a statement of the Adjutant General of Massachusetts that you are the mother of five sons who have died gloriously on the field of battle. I feel how weak and fruitless must be any word of mine which should attempt to beguile you from the grief of a loss so overwhelming. But I cannot refrain from tendering you the consolation that may be found in the thanks of the Republic they died to save. I pray that our Heavenly Father may assuage the anguish of your bereavement, and leave you only the cherished memory of the loved and lost, and the solemn pride that must be yours to have laid so costly a sacrifice upon the altar of freedom. Yours, very sincerely and respectfully, Abraham. Lincoln

My grandfather died when I was 9 or 10 years old. Little did I know at that time what he did for this country. He was Omaha Beach 6 days after the main assault. He wrote in his journal that they were still bringing the dead off the beach. He was a lieutenant and he had an aid that was under his command. A German mortar shell landed and he watched his aid get blown apart by the mortar. Shrapnel teared into his leg and he was no longer able to fight. Don’t remember the exact date that this happened but he received the Purple Heart. I now thank every veteran both old and new each chance I get. Because treading my grandfathers journal taught me of the courage and bravery these men and women of back then and in current times have to lay their lives on the line for the freedoms we have in this country. God Bless our veterans and thank you for everything you have sacrificed in the name of Freedom.

The Almighty was with them to see them through, or to bring them home, as their days were assigned to them! Never another generation will be like them.

Same here. My great grandfather John was a WWII Navy vet from Humbolt County, Iowa. I never met him, he died in 2001. I was born in January of 2005. He saw the beaches of Normandy on a naval destroyer as an electrician's mate. He had a long career with Lockheed Martin and NASA after the war and was a well-known farmer back home with his wife Donna. He even met Walt Disney in the early 1960s on a private flight to Florida when Walt was making plans to buy the land Walt DisneyWorld sits on today. He told John about it and they became friends. He knew Buzz Aldren and Neil Armstrong as friends. My great grandfather knew many notable figures of the 20th century. My grandpa tells me most that I know about him. I'm named after him myself. I'm trying to live up to his name. He was from Gilmore City. Me, I'm from Virginia. I'm his eldest great grandson. All four of my great grandfathers were WWII vets.

I'm a Brazilian in my 50s and watching these images of WWII veterans, and getting emotional for the ones who put all their efforts. These veterans have kept their dignity with personal history and the memories of their comrades who remained there, never to come back. Words are not enough to address them the gratitude the whole world has with their courageous determination to keep our freedom. Thank you so much! May God keep you well.❤

Allies are the main reason of ww1 and ww2 they are the reason of all deaths. Allies broke germany, destroyed austro-hungary, humiliated bulgaria and tried to kill all turks uk, france, russia + usa are the reasons of wars

One of the saddest shit I’ve ever seen was a 93 year old Japanese WW2 veteran collecting cans on the streets in Osaka. America is one of the few countries that actually (at least somewhat lol) take care of their veterans. The moment I talked to him and learned that he had fought as a Infantryman during WW2 over 70 years ago just to be cast aside like that made me feel the worst I had felt in a while. I tried to get help for him, but he refused. He told me that he could get by collecting cans so he was okay. I understand it was pride that was making him refuse help, but I wish he had accepted. One day he was gone. I haven’t seen him since. It’s been 5 years since then so if he’s still alive he’s 98 now. What a fucked world we live in. This is one of the reasons I’m staunchly against war. If a country were to threaten mine, then I will go and fight. But god dammit war won’t create anything and it’ll only destroy. I just wish none of this would ever happen. Send the fucking politicians wagering these wars at the frontlines.

I am one of the lucky ones, my father came home from the war.He rarely spoke of the things he saw and lived through. I know it haunted him for the rest of his life, some times there would be tears in his eyes and he had a far away look in his eyes. He was remembering the horrors and lost friends. He once told of being in a trench and his friend went ahead of him around a corner of the trench. A mortar landed in the trench and his friend was gone. He would talk to one of my uncles who was there with him about it sometimes, and I would over hear things. He saw the concentration camps and the survivors. we have no idea what these men went through, but thank God they did. May they all Rest In Peace in the arms of the Lord.

This summer it was our honor and mission to visit D-Day landing beaches and sites to pay our respects and teach our three teenagers the history outside the classrooms and books. It was so surreal to visit those historical places. It was very emotionally difficult to walk through American Cemetery, but we did it. We salute The Greatest Generations who have passed away and who are still alive with our utmost respect! P.S. if you have got a chance to visit American Cemetery, please don’t forget to visit the exhibition at their information center.

I fucking cried when he started saying his fallen friend’s names :(

I was lucky enough to attend the 40th anniversary of the D Day invasion. The artillery unit I was in in Germany at the time was one of the first artillery units on the Normandy beaches, so our entire battalion went. As I walk through the cemetery at Omaha beach, it was overwhelming the sacrifice these men gave. Looking over Omaha beach, it amazed me that anyone survived. I talked with as many landing veterans as I could American and other nations and then watched and listened to President Reagan give his iconic speech. As a 20 years old kid, I couldn't grasp the greatness in the event that was happening. I do now. It's one of my most cherished and proudest moments! I only wished everyone could experience what a dumb kid from Montana, was lucky enough to experience. Humbled is my only takeaway! Good luck and life to everyone!

We were just returning the favor, if it wasn’t for Frances help in our revolution we might not be here.

I remember when I was 14 (20 now) I met an Iwo Jima Marine who charged up Mount siribachi, he told me his story. It was heart wrenching and something I will never forget. He was full of peace and joy and when I went to shake his hand, he gave me a hug. Today I’m Serving in the Marines and I’m proud to carry this torch on.
