My twin with the same name 😁❤ how do I prepare myself, my kids dad and our family for this? Our 2nd to youngest told my youngest daughter a few months ago in which she told me after. It didn't hit me til after our son told his dad last month and I saw he worry in his eyes. I know I told him after I found out but he has selective hearing and we just lost our home and had to split our family apart by having the younger boys go stay with their mom. (Kids dad was a single dad of his last 3 kids. We just got back together 2 yrs ago after 22 yrs). Sorry I went all over on this comment. I am the parent that loves that our kids want their own space to grow but deep inside I wanna keep all 6 kids home or at least neighbors. Daddy is the type that he rather all our kids live at home forever. So it hit him kinda hard.

It was him and his Men’s Honor to give them to the Children. I also have a Son in the Navy he’s a Chief Warrent Officer. He did the same things while on the Four ships traveling the World.

But yes, this was a very powerful song. I cry every time I watch or hear this song.

John Michael Montgomery's Letters From Home is the one that always got me. My Daddy would send me a box every week when I was deployed and make sure it was full of goodies for my troops and I.

I remember walking into his office and said who I was and here to pick up my letter. He said "I'm so happy to see you" and opened his main drawer and pulled my letter out and handed it to me.

I grew up on rock and roll too. In my opinion the best music id rock from about the mid-70 to mid-80s. I joined the Army in 1990, which is where I, for the first time, had any real exposure to country music. I became a country music fan, though not all of it is music to my ears (so to speak). A few of my more sentimental favorites in country are much more recent than the early 90s. A couple others from Tim McGraw to check out are "Live Like You Were Dying" and "Humble and Kind". Others to check out are Brad Paisley's "He Didn't Have to Be" and one of my personal favorites (a duet with Alison Krauss) "Whiskey Lullaby". Also "The Little Girl" by John Michael Montgomery, as well as "Goodbye Time" by Blake Shelton. Now, I have to say, I am a big fan of Jack Daniels. I've tried a couple different single barrel, but never the rye. Also, they have a Sinatra Select Jack that I have really wanted to try, but can't find anywhere. One of these days...

We'll add those to our list. And definitely check out the single barrel rye. It's great.

@@BourbonCountryReacts My apologies gentlemen, but I wrote my comment before actually looking to see the other videos you have. A couple of the songs I mentioned have already been done.

My poor father was shot and killed in the Vietnam War. I wish he was still alive because he would have loved this wonderful song! ❤😢😢😢

Eeeeeee... I got a bottle of that last Christmas. I have A GREAT LANDLORD. Never moving. Also..what the heck does that t-shirt say? also also... love this song.

Alan Jackson Remember When is very emotional. I have a hard time with it for sure. Also, The soundtrack to The Shack. Tim Mcgraw and Faith Hill have a phenomenal song called Keep Your Eyes on Me.. if you know anything about the movie you know what the song is about

I remember as a kid. Playing war, every weekend. With a couple dozen friends. It was fun! Reality turned out, not to be. A good time.

I see you this one and raise you 'Til The Last Shots Fired

Try the Balcones Texas Pot Stilled Bourbon and you won’t regret it. One of my favorites. I find it on sale for $25 but it’s usually around $30.

@@BourbonCountryReacts I'm a whisky guy myself, but I don't mind a nice bourbon once in a while.

Song reminds me of my death letter we all wrote to our family's just before we went into combat...let's people kinda know that we think of our family and fellow brothers besides us more than ourselfs.

I saw the jack and the first thing I thought of was the song Jack Daniels by Miranda Lambert! Great song, no official video for it but it doesn't need one, just a great song!

Added to this list thanks Traci.

First off Thank You for your service. I come from a Marinecorps family and proud of my family. I think you guys would like Carrie Underwood "just a dream" as well as Tracy Lawrence "if I dont make it back". Trace Adkins also has a good one "Welcome to Hell" its about Osama Bin Laden. You'll get a kick out of it.

Well damn it guys! Im sitting at Irwin Army Hospital, trying not to cry! 🥺

Thanks for the suggestions. Both are on the list. I am also tracking the number of times a song is requested to help us choose which ones to do next.
