This is the kind of man we need running our governtment.

thank you is not enough Sgt. Hubbard i wish i was capable of more

Thank u men and women who served are country u will always be my hero God bless you all

I will never forget these men and women who gave their all for us, for our country.

"Panel 12 E, line 8" So much grief in so few words.

From one soldier to another, thank you for everything you have done.

To those who choose to give this a thumbs down. Since you will not stand behind the soldiers, you are more than welcome to stand in front of them.

Amen brother! thank you to all my brothers and sisters that served in the armed forces past and present and thank you to their families i will forever be grateful and proud to have served along side you all.

You are ALL HERO'S to me. God Bless & God Love each and everyone of you.

SGT Hubbard is a hero. I showed this video in church services today at the nursing home and assisted living facility where I volunteer. SGT Hubbard's speech drove home the spirit of sacrifice and love that drives those who have given their lives and treasure for their nation - many of whose citizens either do not appreciate or disdain their service and sacrifice. God bless you, SGT Hubbard.

What a beautiful and touching speech. SGT Hubbard, I don't know you our your family, but wish to thank you for your service, thank God that your life was spared and hope that you continue to bring your message to more people. They need to hear it. God Bless you, brother. G.M. Caldwell, RN (Major), USAFR (Retired).

Regardless of what you may think about the current "wars" in the Middle East we must honor and respect those who wear the uniform, leave home and family, and serve their Nation far from home. Forget "politics" when you think of the individual sacrifices made by our young countrymen and women. Vietnam? An unnecessary waste of life and money but don't forget the young men and women who did serve. They did it for us and don't forget it. Respect the sacrifice!!

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. ~John 15:13 A grateful nation remembers those who gave the last full measure of devotion. We remember...

Thank you SGT Raymond Hubbard for your brave service and for sharing your story with us! May God rest the soul of your Father! thank you to him and his fallen brothers who served in Vietnam! God bless you all!

his son Riley Hubbard live just down the road from me in Darien Wisconsin and i have so much respect for his father for his my service to our great nation. GOD BLESS OUR MEMBERS OF OUR ARMED FORCES WHO RISK THEIR LIVE EACH AND EVERY DAY DEFENDING OUT FREEDOM

Words so perfectly said. Thank you for bringing a face to the faceless. Thank you for speaking from your heart.

It is the wealthy and powerful who send our sons and daughters to fight their wars.

i come from a long line of army engineers and this winter i will hopefully be attending basic as well to you and your brothers in arms I will always be in debt to you for keeping the freedom I hold dear FREE and may you keep up the good fight in this great country. HOOAH

There we go man, making us in Wisconsin proud.

In every age there are heroes. You want to know the true definition of a hero? He is the man or woman, no matter how brave or important... That are the people who are there when action is called for. They act when the act is necessary, irregardless of their own situation. They aren't trying to be a hero. Most times they want more than anything else to live...not sacrifice their own lives. But they were the right person, at the right time...and they became human, and they inspire us all.

Thank you Sgt Hubbard for your service. You are a true hero in my eyes..God bless you and your family and God bless our troops for keeping us safe and free.

Thank you to every single solider who has fought past and present 2 protect our country from the enemy no one know how much they have done for us, we wouldn't be here If it wasent for them so thank you so much for making our life possible, RIP every single solider who has lost there life and 2 there wives and children we can't imagined what your going through right now but all you need 2 know is that we will never forget and never forgive for the ones who took your lives so young Thank you so much for this amazing chance in life 🇬🇧🇺🇸😭

SGT Raymond Hubbard, Sir, welcome home. I love you and ALL of my Band of Brothers. I certainly wouldn't have had the courage to speak out as you did. To try to add to the things you said, would only serve to dishonor YOU. You as well as ALL other members of our Armed Forces who have fought in combat, Will always live in that part of my heart where my Band of Brothers will be till the day I die. Thank You and may the Lord pour out upon you His mercy and grace and fill your heart with His presence and give you peace. SSG E-6, John Novak, B Company, 19th Combat Engineer Battalion Viet Nam Nov67-Jul69

thanks to all the great men and woman that have sacrificed everything..never forgotten

It's times like these that I feel so much pride that we have men like this, my father served in Vietnam....I am ashamed to say I have never served I had given it some thought before college but never went through with it....there's is a debt of graditude that all us civilians owe to these brave men and women to volunteer to serve a cause higher than themselves...while most of us sit here at home and take for granted the freedoms we have...not thinking about how those freedoms have a cost

God Bless YOU SERGEANT for your service!

my name is DuWayne, I am a direct descendant of one of Our Founding Fathers John Hart , On behalf of my family and myself, THANK YOU, To ALL of You and your loved ones, Our Defenders , from the days of my 5th Great Grandfather to today...THANK YOU DuWayne Bryant

A true hero in more ways than one. To overcome the personal loss and tragedy, the fact that he did not enter basic training until age 24 when most enlisted personnel were in their late teens, he is to be commended.

Thank-you to you and all who serve and who have served .I do not support this war but do support those who serve.Always have and always will until I take the last breath.We in this country who enjoy the freedoms that all service men and women have fought for are owed a debt which we can never be repaid.May God watch over you and all others who serve.

as an old vet told me" im not a true hero, the true heros dont come back from war," god bless the usa and you heros will never be forgotten

Heroes don't volunteer to fight in Banker's Wars. When will we ever learn. All "they" have to do is stage an incredibly phony false flag attack and we're all foaming at the mouth like a bunch of rabid dogs. My country right or wrong.

I THANK GOD ALMIGHTY FOR YOU SGT.HUBBARD,YOU TRULY DO REPRESENT THE FINEST THAT AMERICA HAS,MAY GOD BLESS YOU!

Thank you so much. You're an amazing person, Hubbard. Thank you so much for your service, I hope to repay your debt you have given me with that service...Again, thank you so much, Sgt. Hubbard

These words came from this young man's very soul. They are much appreciated.

They are. Thank you on behalf of soldiers everywhere. It is not an easy life and I admire anyone who undertakes it. Patricia Smith

Thank you to all men and women who have fought for us.

Thank you, your Father & all who have served!

Bravo Sgt Hubbard...Your speech made me speechless. God Bless you

Greet speech and god bless the men and women. who give their live so we can be free

The 28 people that disliked this have been living in there peace shell there whole life thanks to those who died so they could live in there peace shell.

I had just gotten my BS in Forestry and my first professional Forester Job with the US Forest Service. I had fought wildfires for the previous and lost 12 friends from one blow up. Suddenly my future changed when I receive at dreaded letter. My future would need to take a detour through Vietnam. I was 6 years older than my fellow recruits and had the highest education my unit. I made the most of my time taking care of my fellow soldiers and keeping my eye on our mission = leadership.

right on ! any sane person agrees with everything in this speech This is Real Freedom for the country Yeah!

God Bless You Sgt. Hubbard for your service and strength to our country and for remembering the Viet Nam Vets who have been discarded. We need to STOP saying 'something should be done' and JUST DO IT!

Thank you,for protecting all free men and women in this world

Thank you for your service and sacrifice.

thank you, your father and god bless you and your family! thank you! i can never ever thank you enough! god bless!

Why are there thumbs down ? This is why . We few, we happy few, we band of brothers; For he to-day that sheds his blood with me Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile, This day shall gentle his condition; And gentlemen in America now a-bed Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here, And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks That fought with us . They don't have what it takes to be a warrior so they hate any and everyone that makes them look like the cowards they are !

This is from 2008 but all ages need to watch this to understand how the United States freedom has been fought for over and over and over again my men and women of the army, navy, air force, marines, reerves. I salute the soldiers of the past, present and future!!!

I'm sorry ma'am, but as a former artillery officer it's my sad duty to inform you this has nothing to do with fighting for freedom. Type "General Wesley Clark Interview" in the search window above to discover how it's all about the U.S. objective to overthrow 7 countries in 5 years. The general is talking about "The Greater Israel Project" to destabilize all Israel's neighbors and expand Zionist borders from the Nile to the Euphrates. That's what the 2 blue bars on the Israeli flag represent.

Well said... Thank you Sgt Hubbard.

Thank you SGT for your service

Wow, intense. All men and women who have served and are serving our country should be treated better than heroes in my opinion. Thank you all

im pretty sure we can all agree to say, thank you for your service brother.

I gave no thumbs, but have you ever read "War is a Racket" by Major General Smedley Butler? It should be required reading for every American kid, but sadly it's not.

Some comments state the sadness, they are mistaken....it is Pride! Today's young Men and Women are called lazy, selfish, greedy, spoiled, etc. I call them Heros! We have millions of men and women volunteering to serve, outstanding! Some comments even state these Soldiers' sacrifice is a waste....what a complete ignornant statement! War works when elected and non elected Politicians can't get their way, Soldiers are required to sustain our way of life. Thank you all that Serve!

thank you for your service

As a Canadian vet my heart breaks for those that weren't respected for their tours in Viet Nam. Now that I live in the USA and belong to the American Legion, I do as much (along with my family) for them. I thank you for your service and sacrifices. My boys both serve, one is in the Army and the other is on his way to Pre-BUDS.

Hats off to you.

It really doesn't matter where combat is or why we are there. That's for the politicians. What matters is that America's sons and daughters, my brothers and sisters, are there. I was there when my country called in 1971 and my dad was there when his country called in 1940. We responded without hesitation because that's we do, we Americans. I weep for those who didn't come home, and for our flag, and our anthem, and for all of you who we have served.

It sounds very noble, but isn't that the big lesson we were all supposed to take away from the Nuremburg Trials? It's no excuse to plead, "I was just following orders." You can't just blow off your moral responsibility by declaring, "That's for the politicians." Are you a slave of the politicians? If America was involved in just wars it would be one thing, but these wars are anything but just. These are all bankers wars, wars for oil, fought to line their pockets and promote the New World Order. We need to be exercising some moral judgment before volunteering on a fool's errand. Patriotism is not blind.

Applause. Great speech.

Good man, great speach.

Thank You,Friend

As a clergyman, my sermon is often on a piece of paper but it is always from my heart.

This isn’t about the few idiots that dis-liked this video. It’s about a young military hero that gave to his Nation. He honored our Nation, it’s Flag and the People. He is a great American. God bless him.

I will one day wear the uniform. I feel pain and sorrow when I see the American flag, but I also feel pride and honor and have chills go down my spine when I see it waving in the breeze. It is my flag every bit as much as it was and is theirs. I would gladly give my life to keep it flying and to protect those flying it. This country has given me everything and the least I can do is serve it. If dying is asked of me, I'll bear that cross with honor because freedom don't come free. Semper Fidelis
