“Our debt to the heroic men and valiant women in the service of our country can never be repaid. They have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacrifices,” reads one quote from President Harry S. Truman.
And while a beautiful rendition of ‘Amazing Grace’ is played with bagpipes, scenes of military men and women are shown. It is a powerful video, and many people online shared their emotional reaction to it.
“Every time I hear this song it brings tears to my eyes as I think about all the soldiers who gave their lives during times of turmoil. May all the soldiers rest in peace,” comments one person on YouTube.

“For every moment of peace, for every day of security, for every liberty we enjoy, and for the preservation of our freedom, we thank our God. And we give thanks for the brave men and women He has raised up to serve and defend our country. May we never forget. May we always remember the great sacrifice they have made. Especially those who have given their lives so we can live in freedom and safety.”
This Memorial Day, let us remember to honor the heroes who have served and sacrificed for this country. All gave some. Some gave all. God bless all of these men and women!
