I was the son of an abusive Army colonel who didn't give a damn about my own military service. But I made sure to drop off each of my three military sons at every one of their departures, and to be the first person they saw when they returned. God kept them all safe for me and I am so proud of them all.

I dismissed my platton, and stood looking into the crowd for my family. I felt a sense of panic when I couldn't see them. I still remember the rush of emotion as I saw my son and daughter running my way. My wife was waiting, letting the kids have their time with me. I still think of all the yellow ribbons I saw on the way home. Every house on our culdisac had a yellow ribbon. My neighbor walked over and handed me a beer. A handshake, hug and a welcome home. I thank God I was able to get back home alive each time. But I pray for those who didn't make it.

Save this video/commercial. This was a time when many American companies advertised character, honor, patriotism and loyalty to the people who made their companies great. It was a time of history blended with the greatness of America. No divisiveness, just celebration of the spirit of our nation. Companies today have forgotten this basic tenet.

Inscribed on grandad's stone was SgtMaj WWI. I retired from the Marines. My daughter and all four sons have or are currently serving (Air Force, Marine, Navy, Army, Army).

My Dad graduated high school in June of 1941, in December of that year the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and brought the US into WW2. At the time my Dad, a then 18 year old kid from Kansas drove a ‘36 Ford 5 window coupe. He was drafted in January of 1942 and came home in September of 1945 (no furloughs back then, you served for the duration). When he arrived back home he discovered that his folks had kept the car for him. They drove it sparingly (gas was rationed then and they already had a ‘37 Buick Roadmaster). This sorta reminds me of that story about my Dad. They’ve all passed away. Sure do miss them.

So he was in the war till it was over. He had been sending money home all that time for his dad to buy him a car. Of course he didn’t know his little brother had been driving it! 😂 That’s another story. But they and another brother who died during basic training are all gone.

I saw this commercial at the end of a TV show that i can't remember the name of but it was set in 1965 and that episode had to do with the Vietnam war and the introduction of the 1964 1/2 Mustang. I always wanted a Mustang then I saw this one a 2005 Mustang that strongly resemble the 1968 Mustang. I went to the dealer the day they came out looking for one that was Legend Lime, found it after about 5 dealers, they had one at the car show in Milwaukee, I bought it without even seeing it and picked it up the following Monday. Best thing Ford has ever done.

My Dad wasn't that emotional when I came home. But he did said that I was the most alive dead person he'd ever seen. But eventually he did finally say welcome home after dinner though.

I will say that this commercial made my eyes water. it's better than a majority of FILMS on net flix! I bought a navy blue MG midget on leave from boot camp with orders for Westpac (VIETNAM), I THINK IT WAS 2,100$. my dad took it out a couple of times a month, washed and waxed it.picked me up at the air port when I got back to the states. I loved that little car.with the drive side door was opened I could touch the asphalt on the hi way ...wire wheels,4 speed gear knob right at my waist, leather bucket seats, my legs from mid thigh to my feet were under the hood/engine area; kept it for 5 years.sold it to stripper to pay for graduate school. that was the last I saw of it.

My parents didn't even want to drive forty five miles to the airport to pick me up. I had to pay for a taxi to drive me most of the way. After being dropped off I still had another five miles to go. There I was 6:30 in the evening the sun low on the horizon wearing my Navy dress whites carrying my duffle bag walking five miles on a graveled rural road. I walked about a mile and a half when an elderly farmer and his wife picked me up and drove me the rest of the way. Only two people welcomed home that day, the taxi driver and the elderly farmer.
