I am the spouse of a retired Canadian Veteran, who's done his time and I can't watch this video without having more than tears. Cry through the whole thing as I picture the wife driving the husband as I've done quite a few times. Saying goodbye was the hardest thing as I've said it so many times before that now I can't say it anymore or I break down. Toby Keith came to Canada in Sudbury Ontario, near my home town and when he sang 'American Soldier', he switched the words to 'Canadian Soldier' and my husband stood up and saluted him whilst in the crowd and when Toby turned his guitar, there was a Canadian flag in the back of it. Tore our hearts out and made the crowd go wild. Thank you for reacting to this video and thank you for your service as well. :) Love from Canada

Toby can make you cry, and he can make you laugh. He writes his own music & produces it himself, so no one can influence how he does it with their rules. I know you've checked out a few of his videos & there are so many more to discover. 'Trailerhood' & 'How do you like me now'?' & 'I love this bar' are just a few of his fun ones. Then he has more love songs like' It's a little too late' & 'You shouldn't kiss me like that' which are beautiful, but if you get the official video's you will also get your laughs. Toby has no problem making a fool of himself for a laugh. I am praying he finishes his Cancer treatment & recovers completely. We need this man.

I don't know about more afraid than you but it's a lost at sea feeling. Especially if you have children with your soldier/marine/sailor/pilot. My first husband was a Marine and his first of 3 combat deployments (where he was badly injured) I was pregnant then had our son to raise the following two, for 9-12 months at a time. Not to diminish their experiences, at all, but speaking just as a former military wife, they're given training and debriefings for their deployments. The families aren't, and yes, I can guarantee you with every ring of the doorbell, their heart jumped. With every phone call was the Elation of it possibly being you tempered by fear of who else it might be calling. I hope you did get to ask them and that it brought all of you even closer. ❤
