    To my dad who fought in Northern Africa and Sicily in WWII who never liked to talk about what he saw or who he killed. Who lived to 93. My son now has his medals from the war and treasures them.

    For my Father who was DDay+15, 103rd Timberwolves. Purple Heart Recipient, it wasn’t until after he passed in 95, I learned he spent 100 days in a Field Hospital in Belgium. I knew he had been shot, he never talked about the convalescence.

    My uncle dragged the “big” gun from Normandy to Berlin. Patton had them go through one of the first camps to be librated. He had a mental collapse and developed a pronounced speech impairment.

    Though we saw then as enemies they were humans just like us following orders not all were pure evil not all were monsters we fought ourselves we may never got too live the experience the horrors of ww2 but the men who did saw and did things to survive many are now long gone all we have is interviews and footage may they finally now rest in peace no more nightmares of the old war.

    When I go to bowling tournaments in Pa, I pass by the grave site of Major Richard "Dick" Winters. They put up a huge sign to show his burial place. They had a guard there for a while to monitor the traffic and keep idiots from doing something stupid like taking flowers or the whole head stone (don't laugh, someone will try it).

    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."

    Sorry, I don't hate our country, but I do hate our government. When our government has been turned against us, as it has under Obama and now Biden, it deserves to be hated. Screw all Leftists, who prosecute anti-American agendas, and all RINOs, who stand by picking their noses.

    My father landed on Normandy and fought thru France, Holland, and Belgium into the Ardennes and Battle of the Bulge. He received the Belgian Croix de Guerre. He never talked about the war while I was growing up. When I joined the Navy, he then would talk to me, but not my siblings. This is a beautiful song but I couldn't understand a word she sang. Great voice, though.

    Beautiful voice, but her diction was such that it was difficult to understand the lyrics- which is a shame, because the words pay tribute to a generation of true heroes.

    My father lived through the war. Get arrested by the Germans in 45 to dig trenches. Then the fighting strarted. He was afraid and scared to death. He always sayd to me to honour the guys who freed us (dutch) but not to hate the Germans because they did not know better. He hated the "heroes"who after the war were in the resistance. Rest in peace dad. I learned my lesson.

    I got to meet one of Jimmy Doolittle’s last raiders a few years ago. I asked him what motivated you? He said “I don’t think I knew, beyond that some bad people needed some real hurting.”
