You’re absolutely correct all veterans no matter what nation they serve are treated like crap, having served 22 years and my wife 11 years in the British Army We know the feeling of being hung out to dry.
Thank you both for your service!!
Invalided out many years ago, left to rot. Bloody Queens shilling has much to answer for.
Yet I'd still do it all again.
@@TheGrannyNut That’s the same as the Mrs m8, used and abused but I think most of us would do it again.
@@barrywood7322 Clankety Clank :D Did 22 years too.
This one gets you right in the feels. I've heard it many, many times and it still gets to me. Not sure how they can top this, but knowing Home Free, somehow they will.
Let us pray 🙏
Thank you for your words of support for our Vets. I did my 20 and still am amazed at how many Vets live on the street. People that haven't been there have no clue what "Brothers in Arms" really means to those of us that have served and never will. Yes Home Free put into music a feeling that most people don't understand except maybe firemen or police because they too stand only with each other for support. Again thank you for this reaction.
Not true. Most Americans, like me, and you. love the people who volunteer to serve. I want to be taxed to keep all Americans healthy and sheltered. Many don't want to pay a dime.
Please don't forget, that this song originally came from a british band, this has nothing to do with american national pride, it's a tribute to EVERY victim, serving soldier and veteran out there regardless what country they originated from.
That IS what the song says. The last line says it explicitly.
Americans can be included in that too. js
This is an anti-war song. In honor to all follen soldiers, by a British band and it has nothing to do with America. There is nothing honorable in being shot like an animal and in bleeding to death. War is only death, suffering, and destruction... I have witnessed tings I wish I could forget, but I can't!
Salute to to all my brothers in arms, no matter where you are from
The song was written by mark knopler from Dire Straits
The most important line in the song I feel is “we are fools to make war on our brothers in arms”
what difference does that make who made the song, she was talking about the American military and her personal experience with it.
I agree that veterans should be honored and cared for.
Jen, thank you thank you thank you!!! I think I said amen more during your reaction than I have all week! First of all thank you to your father and you for your service. Families serve too. The fact the we house, feed, educate, and give free healthcare to illegals while we have veterans living on the streets with nothing to eat is inexcusable!!! My husband is a veteran, and is now Air Force Civil Service. He deployed 3 times as a civilian. We were lucky. He came home safe and healthy. Not everyone can say that. Thank you for being another voice for our veterans!!!
As a veteran. I'm sorry for your loss. Thank you for your sacrifice, and thank you for your support. We veterans thank you for the prayers also. Big Love and Many Prayers to you and yours.
From an Old vet. Salute to your father for his service and you and your family for your sacrifice. Thank you for supporting veterans
our return was painful, I had to forgive, go on, and treat younger veterans with honor and respect
This American Gulf and Iraq 70% disabled Veteran thanks you so very much. I think that we do what we do for our countries. I did for the American people. I did not get mental issues or almost blown up for the Crooked Politicians!! I did for people like you Jen😘
My utmost respect and appreciation to your family for the sacrifices that were for our freedoms. Thank you to all our heroes
I hear ya Jen, my cousin (mothers 1st cousin) went off to Vietnam in early 1970 and returned in 1972 minus his right leg. I was 9 when he left and he was my hero. He had won some bodybuilding contests and lifted in some powerlifting meets and he was this real tough guy with big muscles and people thought he was gonna be mean, but he was the biggest sweetheart you ever met...helped anyone out that would ask. Then came home and was maimed not only phyically, but mentally too...he couldn't get a job, got runn-around by the VA to get any help or benefits at all....he ended up on the streets of diwntown Miami, and on June 23, 1979, my 19th birthday he bkew his brains out in front of people. The VA never once tried to get him the mental help he needed....it was so devestating to hear, I cried for 2 days solid. I mjust had to share...his story isn't uncommon - UNFORTUNATELY
😪
I'm a Vietnam vet.
Most of us had rather hear, Welcome Home, that part never leaves me, it still hurts.
2 tours in Afghanistan and 1 in Iraq. This one hits home. Appreciate your reaction and Patriotism.
Thank you so much for your service.
@@salliemae427 My pleasure
I appreciate YOU and all that serve and have served! Brother, thank you!!
I did 1 in Afghanistan and 2 in Iraq. Thank you brother! I would not desert you! I will always fight but your side. I had my leg almost blown off and I had to be medically discharged but if I could gonback and serve in any way I would. And I think I speak for all vets. Thank you brother!
@@christianjones4497 Same here brother
Your passion and message is so powerful and I couldn’t agree more! Americans take for granted the cost that was paid by our military so that they have the freedom to whine about how much they hate America. Only a country that is truly free has the luxury of spending so much time and energy disrespecting itself . Thank you to all who have served and sacrificed your life, your sanity, your family and your physical body so that I can live free..god bless and much ❤️..
You know what I say about the Americans hating 🇺🇸??? MOVE! This country is one of the best lands on earth. If they don’t like it, they can leave! When they hate on the USA 🇺🇸 yeah💔 they hate on each and every last person who’s fighting, and has fought for their freedoms!!! #ProudAmerican
AMEN!
Thanks for this video.I am a NE Ohio Vietnam Vet.Had some tears.I am sorry for your loss of your father.600 Vietnam Vets are dying daily now.They are all my brothers.
I personally served and this hits home for me and I agree Vets especially the ones that came home damaged mentally or physically but veterans stick together no matter what Semper Fi (always fateful)
Mark Knopfler of Dire Straits wrote this about the Falklands War that was going on at the time between the UK and Argentina over some islands off the coast of Argentina. I've heard this probably 60 times and still tear up. Thank you for this reaction. I came for Home Free and am subbing for you. God bless you and yours, and God save America.
This song by them always brings a tear to my eye....It sux so much that the people who "volunteered" to protect us are treated so shitty when they come home.
I agree, when we come home we should be given the same respect and support as you gave to send us there
Thanks Jen! I didn't get to know my daddy because of WW2. He was a tank gunner and a highly decorated warrior and my Hero! I'm so sorry about the loss of your Dad! Your Dad is a Hero too! All Veterans are!God Bless You Sweetheart! I'm so glad that you and your channel is doing so well! Sending love to you from South Georgia at beautiful Lake Seminole!
I sat on dad's chest..breathing into him while he died...I failed...thank you for this..we love you..you matter.
Dearest Jennifer. SO Proud of you. My kids are also military brats. I retired after 20 years in the US ARMY, this is one of the most touching songs from Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits.) These young men (Home FREE) did the song justice. So proud of you beautiful girl. Keeping sharing this beauty. Profound. Needed.
As a veteran, I cried at this. You're right, we are treated bad, but we'll send money to every country around the globe...
So very true . We can help other countries and stick our noses in their business where we have no business being .
I loved this song when Dire Straits sung this years ago and I love the respect and justice that Home Free gave this underrated song. I love your reaction and agree with everything you said about our veterans. I salute you. Peace
Hi Jen..I am a Vet from the UK. Served in N. Ireland. Our vets here are also treated like crap by the government.
as a veteran i love your comments. This song is very touching
I will keep my comment short, sweet, & simple. I agree with everything you said 110%. I couldn't have worded any better. Thank you for sharing your thoughts & feelings.
Thanks for your concern and reaction Jen! Thanks for your Patriotic words and reverent recollections of your Father! As a US Navy Veteran of 6 years service, I 'd like to say to your Dad, Rest easy Brother, We have the watch! RIP to him and may God Bless your family! Rock on Sister!!!!
It is an exceptional cover of the Dire Straits original. So well done.
This arrangement is also a cover by Club for Five. Tim asked them for their arrangement and the band gave it to Home Free.
This is the cover by Club for Five.

I agree with you whole heartily, my dad is a Vietnam vet and I'm proud of him because he volunteered, to serve our country.i agree our veterans are treated like crap, and it's sad that those men and women are treated that way. They deserve our respect and our thanks, for fighting for a country they love .😢
This song is very fitting. I have an Uncle that served with the CBs in Vietnam and he is dealing with agent orange illness. My grandfather was a POW for 39 months during WWII. The patriotism and love for this country in my family is important to me and I was honored to service in the Marines for 20 years out of respect for my family and others.
My dad was also a gunner on a huey in Vietnam, mad respect to all of our military men and women and their families. It is a travesty especially the way the veterans of Vietnam were treated when they returned home.
Many times we were so happy to hear that old beat up Huey coming up the valley to get us, door gunner hanging out on his harness bringing P on old chuck, Those guys were stone fearless.
Tell me about it. So called protesters screamed abuse and threw what looked like dog poop at us when I and other bedraggled vets returned from Vietnam. The VA, forget it.
Wow, a touching and heart felt reaction to this song. Not the performance, but the meaning of the song. Many of us feel the way you do, even being a veteran myself I don't get upset at the way I'm treated by my fellow veterans deserve better. I gave my time, part of my lifespan, many have given their bodies, their dignity, the rest of their lives, and will never recover or be the same. I've lost brothers and sisters that I ate with the day before. Those and their families are the ones that deserve better.
Wow sorry to hear that. My condolenses to you and your family sweetheart. He definitely raised one tough and phenomenal daughter
Amen sister. Out veterans need recognition, respect, better benefits. They have risked and sacrificed their lives so we can live in our country. Much respect to those who served and thank you vets for your service and sacrifice! 🇺🇲❤️
This group has made me cry more times than all the others I watch combined. They do the truth though. You're right--we need to do so much better. Some things are worth fighting for, but not a politician's agenda.
Jen,
From a Vet, thank you for everything you said in this video.
Great video! Great song! The best group!
Thank you so much for your service.
I'm from NZ, and I love Home Free. I listen to many reaction videos, mainly because I'm interested in what people have to say about Home Free's music. I listened to one reaction where the women reacting had no idea what 'Brother in Arms' meant. Worse still, she didn't listen to the words, so completely missed the feeling they put into it. I really appreciate your reaction - heart felt and completely honest. Well done.
I sat on my dad's chest breathing life into him...I failed..he died..I love you for your respect..love ya
I appreciate your appreciation for vets.. as one myself; we walk through the world knowing that there are not many that know we sacrificed for their right to say awful things to us.. most of us stay silent... but that's because we fought for the right to let them say it.. thank you, Jen
Hi Jen, I felt your pain and some tears escaped when listening to this song. I really felt your pain as a former military, son of and grandson of soldiers. My father served in French Foreign Legion (Legio Patria Nostra - Honor and Fidelity), went to Tchad and Lebanon tours and I fully understand your cause. God bless you, may you father be with you among the stars ♥♥
a big hug sincere for you, in silence, no words.
My brother in law got treated like crap because he DIDN'T serve in Nam. He wanted to and requested it many times, but they kept him in the Azores. He was an Air Force MP and they told him they needed him to help keep the Azores safe, as it was a loading station for Nam. So, you were damned if you did, yet also damned if you didn't. I am sorry about your dad, and yes, BLESS OUR VETS!
USA, USA, USA all the way!!! Shout out to all of our Veterans and all who continue to serve in our Armed Forces!!! Thanks Just "Blue-Eyed" Jen!!!
Jen, I spent 20 years in the Army and retired. I agree with all the things you said about how vets get treated. My daughter is jennifer and her husband is a former service member. I loved what you said about home free, the MILITARY and that you were from a service family. It can be a hard life and I want to thank you for your father's service. Loved your entire reaction. Hugs from a retiree!
This song is for all brother and sister in arms we have lost 🙏🏽
Thank you for your love of country and military!!! God bless your father for his sacrifice and service! From an army veteran from Vietnam...
I lost many a friend during Viet Nam. My step dad was a WW2 veteran who had nightmares all his life after the war. He has awoke screaming out at night from the horrors he had seen. One of my buddies lost his legs in battle. He never complained once about his situation.
Jen, Thankyou for your honest and heartfelt reaction. Everything you said is true. I retired from the Army and served in Iraq and as fortunate to come home in one piece unlike so many others. I wish this reaction and song by Home Free was put on the air and all forms of media so that the entire nation could see it and understand what the veterans and families of those lost have and are going through. Thank you sooo much again.
You could always share this. I am not sure how it would help, but I guess it’s a start! We all have to stand up, and demand they do better. I’m going to share it on Twitter and tag Biden, and Ted Cruz. Maybe one of them can answer as to why this has been swept under the rug for nearly 50 years.
My dad served in WW2, my brother served in Vietnam, my ex husband was in the reserves and my step daughter is in the Air Force as a combat medic. Most of my friends served as well, with one who never came back, his body never found.
You're right: once the military personnel are no longer useful, they are discarded. Although our local VA is described as good, its still a nightmare compared to private insurance (and we know how bad that is!).
I truly feel your pain. My Dad was a Vietnam Vet as well, I know what it is like to get my Dad up from the floor and into a cold shower to bring him back home. And I started doing that when I was 9 years old. I thank you for your Dad's service and your sacrifice as well.
I really enjoy your true and emotional reactions. As a Desert Storm vet, I think this song is absolutely iconic. It conveys the feeling that nobody, dead or alive, comes back being the same person that left. I love Home Free. You, however, are the absolute greatest. You let your opinions and feelings go out honestly on every reaction. You don't hold anything back. Keep it up. This veteran is proud to follow you.
Thank you for your support and service. Veterans are treated so poorly. I wish there was a magic wand I could wave to fix it. I’m trying!!! I really am!! I do support some charities for vets, but I wish I could shake Biden like WTF are you doing for our vets?!! Those politicians are filthy, lying rats 🐀.
They and their family should be treat like royalty for the rest of their life! They deserve much much more! The most shameful thing a country can do to treat they way they do.
My brother did three tours in vietnam.we just lost him 21/2 years ago.he had agent orange real bad.he retired after 23 1/2 years and was a senior master sergeant.god bless our veterans.i agree with you about the veterans.they should be taken care of and there family also.i come from a military family and seen the damage done.
Thank you for your love of our brothers. Hooah
Veteran myself gave a father two brothers two daughters and a sun for my country thank you
know that your Father is proud of you, as are many of your viewers, stay strong, never give up, never quit
As a veteran myself, I thank you for your advocacy for our armed forces. My condolences for the loss of your father and to all of our brothers and sisters in arms that have paid the ultimate sacrifice. You are 100 % right, our country can do so much better to support our troops and their families. Thanks for the great reaction Jen…Godspeed.
Thank you for you heartfelt words. As I combat veteran myself. We will always be brothers in arms. Family forever.
Thanks for your words Jen, from a UK Vet!!
"War is when the government tells you who the enemy is...Revolution is when you decide that for yourself"...Ben Franklin
Jen , you’re so right 22 a day is way to many , I have a patch on my Harley vest that says , any homeless veteran should come way before any refugees . I’m a member of the patriot guard riders that help protect the families of the fallen and I still get a lump in the throat when the bag pipes start playing. Thank you for your dad serving and to all the veterans that served. Love our military
I'm a retired cop. I worked with plenty of vets over the years. We always had each other's backs. Great respect for them, and for you, Jen, for wearing your heart on your sleeve.
all the men in my family have also served including my oldest son, i agree with you 100%
Heart goes out to you Jen and your dad all the best for you and your family. Keep up the good work.
I cry everytime I here this song. My grampy wasin the 2nd world war and cripled. My dad was in the korian war and I was in the Canadian air force. we have seen friend die and this song brings all that home again.
Veterans should get the exact same health care members of Congress get. They should be allowed to see the doctor of their choosing.
I had an Uncle that passed away from the affects of agent orange a few years back.
My Grandfather stormed the beaches of Normandy. Thank God he came made it home.
I could not agree more with you on how Veterans should be taken care of when the come home.
Door gunners were saviors. My uncle wrote my mother from 'Nam and said they saved his life many times. He would never talk about it when he got back, hid his medals in the back of his closet. He was in the worst of it and he died at the age of 40. Doctors said they were amazed he lived that long, every organ was massively scarred from Agent Orange. He also had a little monkey that saved the platoons asses many times. During a heavy firefight a mother monkey and her baby got shot out of a tree, the mother was dead before she hit the ground and the baby ran to my uncle, grabbed on and didn't let go. He rode on his shoulder and would get real jumpy when Charlie was near.
The mist covered mountains were in the Falklands. But the senselessness is the same as it ever was or will be.
Brat here Too... My Dad served 1961 thru 1988... Vietnam 1970 thru 1971...
Thank you so much for the service of your hero Father. Thank you so much Home Free. The most patriotic talent around
War is hell, and the wounds go far deeper than the body. I cannot wait for the day when all war will cease, and in men's hearts will only be peace.
As a veteran, I agree 100%.
Love your respect for our guys bear hug from a vet
I’m a Army veteran myself, and I 100 percent agree with you. God Bless your father, God Bless you, God Bless America 🇺🇸
I love your view on veterans. I enlisted during the Vietnam War and fortunately was never sent there. Thank you for your respect to all veterans.
And what a beautiful reaction from you!!
It was originally recorded by dire straights in the early 90s and used a early computer animated video.
czcams.com/video/jhdFe3evXpk/video.html Jen I hope you can appreciate this the original video for the song
I totally agree Jen!
Hauntingly beautiful. 🇺🇸😢
Jen, as Viet Nam vet, thank you and I appreciate your truthful comments which were very powerful. I am now a subscriber.
Thank you for your selfless service 💜
Don't know if you noticed this about the video, but every time a singer was in front of a lighted window, they were transparent, almost ghostly. Very fitting for the song. And yes, we need to take better care of our vets.
One humanity, one justice!
-Mark Knopfler.
Jen, I've watched at least a dozen reactors watch this video, but I've never had the depth of emotions I experienced while watching your reaction. Thank you for your words, your tears, your authenticity, and most importantly, thank you to your father and all of our veterans. God bless you.
Thank you Jen for your support of our Veterans. My husband is a disabled USMC Vietnam Veteran, 100% PTSD. He fought the VA for 20+ years just to get his 100%, and another 20+ years to get a motorized wheelchair. He is now 73 and fighting for his life in a nursing home, probably due to exposure to Agent Orange, although the VA told him he has only a very small amount of AO in his body! He loved serving in the military, still talks about wishing he could have gone for at least 3 more tours over there. When he first came back from serving his country, he was called names, spit upon and more! What a shame and I agree with you about our veterans being treated with disrespect!
I know this was a while back but thank you for this.. We have to remember Freedom Ain't Free
You’re speaking wise words about veterans they deserve better treatment..... this is beautiful cover of this song which is now very current in USA 🥰
I love and respect the solders !
You are so right. Veterans should have as good health care as the politicians that send them to battle.
I lost my grandfather from cancer from asbestos working on a destroyer during the interwar period, and my good friend, ex Coast Guard, needed to see a doctor, the VA said 2 weeks. Called my personal doctor, said have him come by after hours the same day I called and wasn't even charged.
Amen!! God bless
Absolutely agree with you. My grandfather was in world War 2 and died in a VETERAN hospital. They only did the minimum to help him. Thank you for caring.
Can't say thank you enough to your Dad, God bless you and your family!!!!
what you needed after this was a big hug
They family should be thanked to for what the go through when there family members are away fighting. That being said thank thank you for letting your family members keeping me free. And im sorry for your loss
I am a Army veteran not a combat vet but a veteran just the same and my wife is a AirFroce veteran and we both agree with your feelings about us veterans
As a 25 year veteran of the Canadian army, I thank you for your support of my American brothers and sisters in arms. Your father is a hero. Both the US and Canada can do a lot more for its returning troops.
dire straits have to be thanked for this wonderful song
My father served in Vietnam. He was with The Wild Weasels and was in charge of loading the planes with agent orange. After serving over there for 5 years he came home in 71 and felt like his country turned it's back on him for doing his job. He stayed in the Air Force until 1984. In 84 while in Germany he was diagnosed with Leukemia. They sent us to Texas and the doctors at Wilford Hall Medical Center said since they didn't know much about Leukemia at that time....They was going to use him as a lab rat. They did admit he got sick from the agent orange. He lost his battle in 1988. R.I.P. DAD
So very sorry to hear about your dad and all he went through. How horrible! God Bless Him and you, and the rest of your family. I am grateful for his service to our country!!
My husband passed away from agent orange. Our government so stupidly sprayed there in Nam. He was highly decorated, spent years in pain until the day he went to Heaven. This song was so emotional for me!! :(
