He never recovered and ultimately took his own life when I was two. May the Almighty bless and keep the families who have lost a soldier/family member in war. 😔

    Everyone who goes to war is wounded, one way or another.. Some die in war but don't know it.. they come home and die again by their own hand.. A WWII infantryman lived next door to me when I was a kid.. When he was about 45 or so, he killed himself.. He never ate chicken.. I asked him one time why not- stupid kids ask adults about such things. He told me while in Europe, he saw chickens peck the eyes out of dead men and he swore he'd never eat chicken again.. Every soldier is wounded, regardless of army..

It brought tears to my eyes and shiver up my spine at same time… What terribly brave for them take on at 18,19,20 years old..

    “Today the word "hero" has been diminished. confused with "celebrity." But in my father's generation the word meant something. celebrities seek fame. They take actions to get attention. Most often, the actions they take have no particular moral content. Heroes are heroes because they have risked something to help others. Their actions involve courage. Often, those heroes have been indifferent to the public's attention. But at least, the hero could understand the focus of the emotion.” ― James D. Bradley

Men who sacrificed their lives for a greater cause is, in my book, is the real meaning of being a hero, not the men who played sports. To all who serves and protect our country and to all who wears the uniforms of the military community, on behalf of the astronomical community, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.

    Today if you get into trouble, you get publically or privately disgraced and quite possibly fired, quite the contrary in years past if you crossed the line or stood up to something - you got killed, maybe very slowly and so did those of your family and maybe village. Bravery today is measured by going along with popular trends for which no price is to be paid and for which no failure is conferred. Lord Gordon put it all on the line and he was rewarded with a terrible death, mutilitation and a mere footnote in the history books, today a forgotten hero who took no gold for his victories.

    I always felt that the heroes were not the guys who got the parades, like Eisenhower, MacArthur. They were, after all, career soldiers whose job was to fight wars. And, in some cases, never heard a shot fired in anger. The heroes are the guys who didn't want to be there but did it anyway. Some were good soldiers, some probably not so good, but they were there when it counted.

    Every year there are two series that I watch at about this time....November. "Band of Brothers" and "The Pacific" I NEVER want to forget the sacrifices that the "Greatest Generation" made for the rest of us still living. My dad, God rest his soul, was a WWII Marine that served in the Island Campaign to defeat Japan. My family's long-gone best friend went ashore with the Army during the Normandy Campaign during WWII and fought all the way to Germany. God rest his soul. Growing up in the late 1950s through the 2000s these were my friends, the Greatest Generation. I learned so much from them. I relished their stories from the war and from the Great Depression. My last friend from that generation passed in 2016. Most of that generation has left us now. I feel so all alone and sad. God bless you and thank you..............

    The beauty of this song should not only invoke praise, but a call to be higher and better than we are today. The part of the world that is free is threatened quite deeply by the part of it that is dark, and unless a new generation of heroes arises, songs like this will do nothing more than hail a forgotten memory. Memories of historical heroism are not meant to be nice pretty sentimental recollections we can all dreamily wish the world would return to. No. Those memories are preserved as a call to duty, honor, and country for every civilian that are recollected in history by force rather than by choice only when people of their own free will choose to forget them.

    Unfortunately for many other companies and squads, the only company that most of us speak of was this one, the only one we really got to see their stories and get a good idea of their state of mind during some engagements, and see interpretations about what happened to them during their tour of duty, and they experienced more than we would ever see in our lifetime in 2 days time or less, and they did that for many years. I still go back and look at some of the nice tribute videos to the different men of easy company that have passed on now, and also to see other stories from the wars morbid i know but the stories them self are not morbid in anyway they show a love for their fellow soldiers and that they are indeed a band of brothers.

    Tomás Dombek USSR was a beast. They lost 22 million people, but killed te same. Not only the Germans, but also Poles. Stalin and his government were killing also Russian people. We should thank the heroes, but they are not on the side of the Soviets. If you want to know more about the Soviets read about it what they did in Katyn, Kharkov, Starobilsk etc. Read about the murders on AK (Armia Krajowa) soldiers, who were under the Polish government-in-exile which is the most faithful allies of the U.S., Britain and France. Do not read russian sources, because they are full of pro-Soviet propaganda.

    I'm sure the west would be happy to blame Moscow for Chernobyl and the Americans getting the praise if they could for cleaning the waste up. When it comes to Western politics, British and American especially, i'm very sceptical and cynical about what i believe. remember, there is a LIE in beLIEve!

    This piece always brings fresh tears to my eyes; thus is the point of a requiem, and yet... Both sides of my family have veterans who have since left us. My father's uncles, my mother's father -- all fought in WW2. My uncles, Steven, Gary, Fritz -- all in Desert Storm. My parents are both "unblooded" ReForGer veterans of the Cold War. I have never had to actively make the sacrifices they all did for the United States -- or the Free World -- I have only played at it as a reenactor of the American Civil War. I still cannot watch "Band of Brothers" or visit a veterans' memorial like The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, or the Vietnam Wall, without tears threatening and a breath catching in my throat. Sadly, I am a dying breed. Too many HATE our soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen. Our own government included. I wish it were the opposite. May this piece of music live on for a long time to come. May the dead rest... "whilst poppies grow in Flanders' fields, in Flanders' fields."

    You don't honor those who have fought for freedom from oppression by fighting for a crooked, corrupt, God-hating organization like the UN. You think you're honoring those who have fallen when in truth you're working for the same type of men who cause those men to fall in the first place. Piss on your UN- we fight for the history and sovereignty of individual nations and this is how we honor those who died to defend that. Are you an American by chance? Man I hope you're not. I'd be embarrassed to see a US citizen proudly fighting for an anti-American international body like the UN. Good luck, champ. May Christ Jesus keep and bless you

    Such a beautiful sentiment. Free of human malignancy and speaks about genuine values which the soldiers of the Commonwealth and the States thought for. Liberty and freedom, only history could taint such a vision. Young men flying the colours of their country high, glistening with ideals and patriotism they go fight the wars of their country, for other generations to do it all over again. Will my generation experience total war ? I hope not, but fate is ferocious and violent.
