This Video is Fabulous, being a Vet from Vietnam to Desert Storm I enjoy the praise you have given, and I will pass this on. Plus you and yours have a Very Merry Christmas!”

One of our submitting subscribers stated, “The song is being performed with ‘effects.’ Listen to the words of the pilot and the tower, and make sure you sit quietly and listen at the very end. You will understand why one of the singers said he would be glad to help with the song…..if he could stop crying. This is beautiful. God bless Vets!”
