I served in the US Army at the very end of that era. Met so many folks who'd been "in country" - and not many had received the thanks and honors they earned. That was a tough time to wear the uniform. God bless all of those brave folks.

Thanks for the posting! Wasn't aware of the song's back-story. All too often, in my selfish delusions, I act like a petulant child simply because things don't go the way I want them to. Easily forgetting the great courage and sacrifices brave American men and women have made for this country. They are better people than me and should not ever be forgotten. God bless them all....

May god bless all those who served in the armed forces........vietnam and all our branches. I think of Vietnam every day and wondered what went wrong in 1967. I have very deep feelings since I remember the blood that was shed from man kind............

What a beautiful rendition of this song. Thank you for this powerful, soulful tribute. I was about 6 when Galveston was popular, but only know Glen Campbell's version. My parents were "against" the war but never against soldiers. My friends' son is a Marine and I think we've learned as a nation that the soldiers who fight are not responsible for the failures of a govt. Their bravery & sacrifices are real. Let's pray, yet again, for an end to all war...

To bad people cant leave there political comments out on weather you agree for or agaisnt the war..I think it shows how a soldier longs for whats most important.Many US servicemen have a lot stronger sense of love for there country and our way of life than most people will ever know. |
