This is a video made for the Veteran's Day Dinner 2011. It was not used. I guess it was too "dark," or something. Well...war is dark, but I guess that isn't really what we want to celebrate when we do a Vet's Dinner. Lesson learned.
The "video" part of this I saw on YouTube and immediately thought it was one of the coolest videos I'd ever seen. I love the song as well as the video that accompanies it. I left the credit at the end so you know that I only added the beginning of the video for the dinner. Though I would love to take credit for the music video, it is not mine. If you watch it on YouTube you will see that I did edit out a rather long introduction at the beginning. I apologize to the maker of this video for doing that. I wanted to share this with other veterans but I thought the introduction was so long that they would lose interest and turn back to their meals.
The video talks about being "Gone." Gone is a word that has lots of different meanings for a veteran. Some are good, some are bad. I guess it all depends on what mood you're in or what you're talking about. But I'll shut up now so you can enjoy the video.
