- An Alabama police officer who stood at attention during a rainstorm to honor a deceased World War II soldier says he simply wanted to recognize a fellow veteran from a small town. Mount Vernon police officer Newman Brazier got out of his police car and stood at attention as the funeral procession of Robert Lee Serling entered the Alabama State Veterans Memorial Cemetery at Spanish Fort on Monday. Serling fought in the Pacific during the war and was 100 when he died last month.

That is what honor looks like. Two great Americans in a single moment. One with us and one no longer.
SEMPER FI!!!
putin do the same american fuc*ks
"great Americans" yeah you people usually glorify murderous idiots
Semper Fi Warriors
HAHAHA 😂 America is so soft that somehow standing in the rain is perceived as a real struggle. Such hardship.
As an Army veteran, I greatly appreciate this man’s honorable gesture. Thank you sir.
It's not about you.
@@user-ww5zm5xx8f never said it was, jerk off.
i’m the granddaughter of an WWII Army veteran. as i watched, i saluted them both. i salute you as well.
@@KristinShootsthank you so much, I appreciate that. Your grandfather was part of the greatest generation. We could sure use more men like him now.
🥰@@SoCal780
I don't care if this was posted 2 years ago, this man is a stellar example of honor and respect
Facts
I dont care either also these videos restore my faith in humanity which is why I also watch em but also to know about these kinds of people
@@blitzworldaceAbsolutely. UK 🇬🇧
Amen to that ! God bless you, veterans, him & everyone reading.
@@blitzworldacefggg
As a former Vietnam era U.S. Marine myself, seeing this kind of modern day respect for old veterans that simply did what their country asked of them from more modern day 'veterans' who still serve our country...makes my heart swell. Thank you Officer Newman Brazier for listening to the honour that was within your heart...you give me faith.
Thanks for your service Marine. This Ranger vet would like to say SEMPER FI DO OR DIE but Rangers lead the way. Also a heartfelt WELCOME HOME
there is no such thing as a former Marine.Once a Marine ,always a Marine ,Semper Fi Devil dog
Thank you Officer Newman Brazier! I (76 y/o German Dentist who has worked for the U.S, Army Dental Clinic in Heidelberg for 3 years) got misty eyes when I watched the clip. This gesture, standing at attention in the pouring rain, says more about you than a uniform, a badge and a rank can ever say. You have your heart in the right place and you are a hero!
Semper.
Thank you all for your service to our great country
What a great police officer you can tell he was raised with great parents. He has so much respect. Thank you for doing this.
That's a man
This officer has my utmost respect, as a 100% disabeld Army veteran I would have standed at attention myself to show resspect to our fallen heroes, god bless all the veterans and active duty soldiers.
@@tracyjohnson5023 That's an American Veteran.
@@heru-deshet359 that too ❤️
@@eddieBoxer sorry but I doubt you were an army veteran.
STANDED?
You mean stood.
Or they hire thick people, it's one of the two.
Either your full of shit or that's a bad look to know you don't know its stood
This is what a man looks like. Respect.
Men come in different shape and sizes.
@@jankowalski6338they do, but real ones all have a similar trait. They are honorable and respectful men.
Shouldn't replied to the idiiot, always get a pedant looking for an excuse to argue@brandocalrissian3294
"That's just what Vets do." R.I.P. to Mr. Robert Lee.
Respect to this man for honoring his brother in arms.
My Dad was a WWII vet. This had me in tears. Thank you Officer.
Mine Too fought in Guam!
thank you both for your father's services
Thanks for service, Sir. With tears and grateful respekt from Ukraine. My grandpa to. Oder 1943. I am a soldier to.

Thanks for service, Sir. With tears and grateful respekt from Ukraine. My grandpa to. Oder 1943. I am a soldier to.
As a British Army combat veteran I would just like to say , thank you to this honourable man for showing respect to another hero . You sir are a good man.
As a UK Army brat. My late dad being ex Royal Signals. I'd like to Thank you for your service.
Thank you for your service for protecting the UK 🇬🇧
From your brothers and sisters in the US, a big salute to you soldier.
@@brandocalrissian3294 thank you l salute your soldiers to
Bullshit a English soldier would never say he was a combat vetrain that's a yank glory hunter thing a British soldier doesn't walk around in fatigues looking for a coffee discount
This is what is called RESPECT ladies and gentlemen, God bless this officer.
Not gonna lie look like something out of a movie but what a man to honor a WW2 veteran unphased
Big respect to this officer from an ex British serviceman...were separated by a big pond... but were still brothers in arms
A Big and heartfelt thank you to you, Brother in ARMS, for such recognition. To those that serve, WE are Brothers and Sisters. No matter how big the pond or terrain feature that lies between.
As a Daughter of two British Army veterans Thank you for your service.
Dont forget that the biggest us ancestry was German 😂
@@BananaRama1312according to self reported ancestry…
Considering 8/10 surnames are of British origin, people who identify as ‘American’ ancestry are normally mainly British and that until the 1980s British was the largest reported ancestry, most common is still probably English and Scottish
@@Sotsufferer lol everything you Said is the exact opposite 🤣🤣 ppl false Selfreport having uk ancestry all the time cause German History has been erased so thoroughly, and even after so many name Changes German based surnames still make a Huge Portion (every Name Ending im er is German f.e)
This is an honorable person. God bless him
Honor and respect has no color. Officer Newman Brazier, I respect you and for what you did. ❤
weird unknowingly racist comment, sounds like a trump voter.
Thank you for saying something that needed to be said. Americans are Americans. Yes, some were and some times are treated differently based on skin color. But it goes both ways. And both ways have absolutely no place in today's society. God bless America
Tell that to other soldiers and americans. In a news youtube stream. There were people saying take away people of colors rights. spamming it and trump 2024.
America most definitely isn't based that whole about honor and color. There's a reason this black veteran doesn't have a big bombastic funeral like other white ones have. So stop lying. Moron.
@@robertK3371 Nothing a black person can say to you amounts to what the n word means. So no it doesn't go both ways robert. You fucking idiot. God. May you meet some black people who are honest and not manipulating you. Like yes, it is gross to be called a c word as white male. But remember people still want to fly the confederate flag. There are states where crosses are burned. You think it goes both ways? Just cause in detroit they don't like some Polo wearing white boys in flint?
Like holy shit. you are so uneducated it hurts.
There are still a lot of fine men in America. Glad you showed us these two.
I don’t know why, but I want to be that guys friend. He seems like a real gem of a human being. Way to go Officer!
Yes, I feel it too
A gem huh? Would this same cop stand out in the rain for a citizen who was murdered at the hands of one of his cop buddies? Riiiggghhhttt......
@buyerofsorts Found the perpetual victim.
@@jasonspencer5267 You are referring to the cop, right?
@@buyerofsortswell the civilian likely provoked the cops to shoot em dumbass. A cop wouldnt respect a criminal (nor would they be paraded ariund town) A vet gave up his freedom so that you could be here today, so the cop shows his respect. two different things. Lets not compare apples to oranges buddy
PS you probably liked your own dumb comment, it was so full of misinformation i might as well report it
As someone who lost a close friend in Afghanistan I salute everyone who takes a moment to recognize our fallen friends and family. Thank you Newman Brazier for showing your respect.
From one old vet to another thank you.
That is Honor and Respect!
Thank you, Sir, for your service both in and out of the Military.
👏🏼 Special thanks to both veterans for their service! 🇺🇸
The 2 heroes we wanted. The 2 heroes we needed. The 2 heroes we got.
A true testament to a man that honors our veterans,
Thank you sir for doing this respectful honor!
If this doesn’t touch your heart…then you don’t have one. From a Marine Nam Vet 68-69.
Thank you for your Service Sir.👍🏻
I knew instantly this officer was also a veteran
"Lest we forget" What an absolute gentleman and incredible war veteran.
Thank You for Your Service Sir. Thank You for the respect you showed to a fellow veteran. Thank You!
THANK HEAVENS THIS COUNTRY STILL HAS MEN LIKE THIS!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE MR SERLING YOU ARE A TRUE HERO AND RIP!!!!
I am a Canadian and I find this extremely respectful and honorable. Good on him.
you must be from alberta
@@user-tj5eu7px1u Don't be a hoser.
You find this....? Buddy.... its obvious this demonstrates respect and honour. Helllllloooooo?!?!
I'm in BC, and I also think this officer's actions demonstrated respect and honour.@@user-tj5eu7px1u
It's great to see our veterans being honored. Most of our current generation doesn't respect veterans because they don't appreciate that these veterans fought and died for our freedom!
No vet after WW2 died and fought for our freedoms.
Because of the leftists and their lies, young generation have started hating America😢
They don't respect modern veterans that invade and destroy countries for money and control. EVERYBODY respects ww2 veterans that fought against true evil.
Unfortunately, my generation may go through the same experiences soon if we don't oust the leftist warmongers.
PURE RESPECT. God Bless him, and his family.
Great man, Thank you and God Bless All Veterans🇺🇸
THIS is why we're great. Because we honor our fallen heroes. This is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! God bless...
Remember two things when you go into the ballot box. This man's service and integrity, and Donald J Trump calling out veterans "losers"
And what do you think other countries do? Just throw them into a grave?
Remember how the people killed in MH17 where brought into the Netherlands? If not, it is on youtube. Look it up.
Everybody but chump respects our brave veterans.....SAD!!!
you have most of them homeless tf are you talking america havel 0 gratitude on their vets they only act like they do but the reality check is another thing
@@isitrachelorj3953they forget about this one
As a Marine we live by one rule, Semper Fidelis. This means Always Faithful. This is a great example of that ethos. Semper Fi brother, well done!
Okay government goon go uphold your oath for once in your life and go defend the border against invaders
Much respect to both The Soldier and Officer keeping this country safe 🙏...
What a fine young MAN !!! I wish I could meet him as I am overwhelmed with respect for him.
Love to you from Diamondhead Mississippi.
It's not because he is a vet. It's because he enjoys life in a small town. He had his morals way before he entered the military & that's why he entered the military. 🙏
Aww
@@WiserDaley-bz1rw Aww shit is more like it.
That’s a whole lot of speculation and assumption. My guess is it’s a load of projection🤦🏾♀️🙄
@@fashiondiva6972 Put down the keyboard & step away from your eminent online decimation… #OneWarning
Huge respect and thanks to both these veterans from another veteran. I salute each of you.
You veterans are like cops. Always licking each other's nuts simply because you belong to the same group and have that brotherhood mentality. You guys are sooo much better than the rest of us, aren't you? Shut up already.
Thank you sir,....you brought tears to my eyes. Gratitude and Respect! Thank you for your service as well!
Rest in peace soldier. You deserve the rest. Thank you for your service.
Two heroic warriors. One passed the other standing. A moment that speaks volumes.
Sheesh, Americans are so desperate for heroes. Back the blue until it happens to you.
An officer with so much respect for a WWII veteran.
The officer’s a veteran himself.
Thank you officer Brazier. You have my respect and gratitude.
Just found this ex-Army UK woman, tears and much respect for this lovely human. 💙💙🙏🙏🤗🤗
What a chap. What an utter, utter chap. Hats off to Mr Brazier.
WHAT IS A utter chap? I LOOKED IT UP ON GOOGLE BUT NOTHING CAME UP. JUST A QUESTION
@@drummerboi74136 a chap is a man you admire/appreciate. It's a British way of saying he's an excellent person
A good man and officer that knows the sacrifice of an American Hero 🇺🇸
👍👍👍
Now this is a peace officer. Thank you.
SIR, YOU ARE MY HERO
This is a real MAN. I thank you SIR for your respect for a fellow Soldier. God bless you and your family. ✝️🙏💞🦸♂️💖😀🙏✝️
Honor and Respect to both Men!
Class act, THANK YOU both for your service! ♥️🇺🇸
Will never be outdated. Thank you so much, Sir, for your service.
This is what respect looks like folks, remember this.
Thats a man of respect and honor
It's never about the recognition. Simply a sign of respect. Well done, brother.
TWO great men. Bless you both.
My respects officer. In my old PD in Scotland, we were positively encouraged to pay respect.
Have a long and happy life my brother.
he is a TRUE veteran !!! Great guy.
Now that is a mark of respect. Fair play sir and God Bless you and yours
Thank you to this police officer. For a brief moment I felt that there may yet be hope for the future of America.
Salute to a Patriot!
If you know, you know. Veterans understand the sacrifice that we all made during our service.
We were all fighting for one and only thing, the person standing beside us.
"sacrifice"
You made no sacrifice so shut it you signed up for the military because you were useless trash or had no other choice. The military is nothing but murderous garbage
@@billsanders5067While I never served, I have been in life threatening situations, so your reply really hit home for me as I understood what you were saying.
And what sacrifice? You joined for the pay, didn't you? Or did you refuse the money?
We need more people like you
Gentlemen, thank you for your service.
The respect the officer gave, was intense. ❤❤
I remember when my grandpa passed away many years ago and there was roofers taking shingles off of a roof they stopped what they were doing took off their hats and stood on the roof facing the street while we drove by
This world would be a better place if people just respected everything
Everyone should honor our veterans.
Much respect officer.
My deep respect for the pass away veteran and for the gentle policeman
my biggest respect for EVERY veteran in the world, and a big respect for this police officer- he showed how an honor could look like! Thank you, officer!
This man is honorable, an officer showing Respect. A true American
Veterans went through 1000X worse than standing in the rain. I don’t think any verteran should be homeless or arrested for drug crimes!!! Mr. Serling was an incredibly brave man to serve at a time when so much racism and hatred towards him was also going on.
The police officer IS a veteran!
Fuck the country
Being an officer is a dangerous job at times and many officers make it a long term career. I have just as much respect for an honorable police officer as I do any war vet.
Heh, being a cop is not even in the top 20 most dangerous jobs in America. Roofers and landscapers jobs are more dangerous.
It's definitely one of the most dangerous jobs for you to be *assaulted* on the job @@buyerofsorts
@@buyerofsorts bull crap. I don't believe that being true at all. The Internet and the people put in it are egghead's that live in basements. If you think being a first responder or in the military is not dangerous then go find a better life or leave this country.
Thank You officer. You are of the finest example of a patriot and a human being!
God Bless You!
May God bless you and keep you safe officer. I know you bought comfort to the family stand there. When my Dad died (WWII Navy), we had a police escort and controlled intersections to the cemetery and it brought tears to our eyes. Thank you for your service Mr. Serling. REST EASY
Thank you for your comment. My father was WWII Air Force and served in the European Theater. Even though we didn't have the best relationship most of our lives, I did have respect for his service.
Thank you Officer for serving and truly respecting a fellow veteran and a Brother.
SMIB
That's a man right there. In case anyone needed an example.
This is a REAL man. Respect 🫡
Much respect to this officer. Is so hard to find ANYONE who cares! It’s that camaraderie that sets us vets from so many. But I have seen many who did not serve do the same out of respect! Thank you my fellow vet. He definitely seen you show the respect you gave him!
This is such an honorable man.
AS a fellow veteran. That statement says a great deal. Nobody can know the bonds we all share as veterans, unless they too have worn the uniform. I salute my fellow veteran on the force, just as I say thank you to the deceased Veteran to whom we owe so much
Total respect sir. Thank you for your service.
I’m a retired police officer from Canada. We spell honour with a “u”. With a great deal of respect…
That’s what honoring a hero looks like. Outstanding officer!
I'm commenting to show my respect for this officer and the veteran no longer with us, thankyou for your service, Lest we forget.
Truly a great, man. Both men... This is how you show respect. His parents raised an outstanding person
Maximum respect, period. A true man of valor.
And how many times did this hero violate people's consitutional rights and lie to protect his PIG buddies? Wake up man...
Thank you, Officer. You are a model hero.
Veterans have lived lives we will never know or have had to endure, they deserve our eternal respect
A few moments in the pouring rain only helps make all the more significant the sacrifice and hardship of those that serve in our military. It doesn't matter how tough we get it, it'll never be as tough as those personnel endured in campaigns....total respect to this officer for putting himself in discomfort in order to honour someone who fought tooth and nail in conditions far worse than this.
RIP Warrior! And Bless that man for standing up for his Brother in Arms.
A gentleman paying respect to a fellow veteran, what we all should do.
Thank You Officer for showing Respect, Honor. You're a True American, You give me Hope for Our Country
Now that is what genuine HONOUR means. And I thank all for their services, speaking as a fellow Veteran.
A man of Honor paying respect to another man of Honor.
What a wonderful man. Thank you for your respect! Please stay safe.💙❤
Much respect to you sir. This country needs more honorable man like you.
Truly the greatest generation. We can never do enough to honour these heroes.
Thank you officer! From one Veteran to another. HOOORAH
now that is Respect
