I love that when Jacoby gets shot, the bearded guy says, “It is going to be okay.” And picks him up. And at the end Jacoby tells the bearded man, “It’s going to be okay.” And then picks him up!
This song gets me every time. I'm just a combat-disabled vet's wife, not a vet myself. I've been battling the VA for him for the past decade though. He served for 10 years and wanted to be a lifer. Instead, an ied took out his humvee, and yet he didn't get medically retired; he got chaptered out for not being able to meet physical standards after his "recovery". He's 41 years old, has had 1 back surgery already, had one full knee replacement and the other desperately needs to be done as soon as we can afford for him to be out of work again. The bones in feet are literally breaking and the tendons ripping just from him WALKING now, because his gait is so messed up. His hip is also screwed up and will need to be replaced in a few years. Guess who won't service-connect his feet injuries? Because it's not like his skeleton is all connected or anything, right?! His humvee being blown to bits by an ied and mangling his knees (and creating hundreds of microfractures that never fully healed and created stenosis in his femurs now) hasn't affected the rest of his skeleton at all, right?! No no. That would make too much sense. That tour where his legs were mangled; his pi$$ant crooked "commander" left him and his 2 soldiers who pulled him from the wreckage (he's 6'6" and 290 lbs) for dead. They spent 3 days in enemy territory before they made it back to the fob. They had to interpret MIA/presumed dead letters sent to their families because the commander lied to cover his a$$ and said he saw them dead but couldn't recover them. (Yeah, the commander got court-martialed later, but that didn't help my husband then; he chaptered my husband out instead of medically retiring him). My husband did 5 tours, and saw combat several times. Iraq and Afghanistan among them. 10 freaking years. He has terrible ptsd. He has tinnitus, and is partially deaf. But the VA won't service connect his hearing loss (despite the fact that his tinnitus is connected!) because he's "not deaf enough yet". They don't give a flying rat's a$$. They don't care how he can't go anywhere crowded, that I wake up and count his shaking/twitching and know by now when I need to move out of the way, or when it's safe to wake him. How I know exactly which seat he needs to sit in even in relatives' homes, because he's already clocked every entrance/exit and is on edge; how certain smells/sounds/sights trigger him. How all of that made his own grandfather's 21 gun salute at Arlington one of the hardest things he's ever had to do since he's been out, and how I glued myself to his side so he could feel me and remember that he was present, and not where his brain was trying to trick him into thinking he was. They don't care that he's in pain every day. They don't give a crap that he's the sweetest man who never complains. Who would give you the shirt off his back if he thought you needed it more. Who loves our kids and me so much, but is so damn tired of fighting to get the help he needs. I happen to be one stubborn protective b*tch though. It's taken us a decade of fighting the VA to get him over 30%. I don't care if it takes another decade. Or 2. Or 3. The VA WILL give him the help he deserves. Because he EARNED it. And I'm not ever giving up. They'll eventually give in because they'll get tired of me riding their a$$. I'm actually a pretty quiet person, but if I have to be a squeaky wheel to get my husband help, so be it. I'll be loudest mf-ing wheel within 500 miles. The VA needs to step it up. There are all too many vets like my husband.
Thanks for keeping the message going. From a Desert Storm combat vet. Lost more brothers and sisters by their own hands. Then in combat.
"He called him brother because they don't see color." If only we had more people like you.
If this wasn't touched on, when the vet in the suit sees the homeless brother who fought beside him, you can read his lips as he says " You know me. You saved my life, brother."
You saved my life brother. Gets me every time
The black dude says "Bill..Bill.. Its me Jacoby. You saved my life Brother. Its going to be O.K."
As a 100% disabled vet( U.S Navy 1984-88, I served on an Aircraft Carrier flight deck) I can honestly say that I left myself on the Flightdeck and someone else took my place in my body, and when I got out in 1988 I felt SO alone, seemed NOBODY understood what I was going through, except my father who had his own " Issues" he was dealing with from WW2, but he always understood, I went from sleeping in my truck to owning a House now because I sought " Help" from the VA, but it did not happen overnight
My Father served, my Brother served, my Ex served and my Son served. I would like to take this moment to say Thank You to all 3 of you men for serving this country! You are always in my prayers!! Keep these reactions coming :)
I'm a British veteran and i really appreciate the importance of this video being shown. Your a true inspiration. Thank you. Stand strong brother and god bless
There are millions of patriots standing by you and ready to do what's necessary to protect the very freedoms you fought for us to have.
I want to thank you for this viewing. I am an Iraqi war veteran and fight for reason to live everyday. I am 70% disabled and trying to get to 100%. PTSD, and anxiety, depression are all to real to combat veterans. So this message needs to be heard loud and clear.
Facts brother. Those of us lucky enough to make it home honestly never really came home.
Idk what tore me up more, the meaning of the video/lyrics or the genuine pain and frustration on your faces watching it.
Being a disabled combat veteran with PTSD life is a MAJOR tasking. After I got out it was very hard to get someone to listen. It took @ 10 years plus to get some type of medical attention. Sad thing is ever day @ 21 veterans take their life. Coming home I have noticed that few people care about veterans or military in general. Look around who flies the American flag 🇺🇸. Not that many!!! I’m glad I got the family and friends that keep me going!!! It’s HARD!!!
This song and video haunted me for days when I first saw it. It's beautifully done but something just too hard to watch. And I'm not a veteran, just a veteran's wife. Take care, both of you, and be sure to now go watch something more soothing. You deserve some peace now.
I am Form Canada so maybe I don't deserve to thank any one but i love what you guys did for your country same as what the Canadian solders for us i just wanted to say all solders USA OR CANADA have my up most respect for every thing you did
Thank you for this video, great reaction. This song brings tears to my eyes everytime.
Thank you for your service, not a vet myself but I know many who mean/meant the world to me. I've spent many sleepless nights on suicide watch... I would spend a million more to help any of them. Thank you for doing this & bringing awareness to all of this.
As a vet with 3 tours in Afghanistan, thank you for bringing the message.
