Very moving, found myself getting choked up a bit. Is that playing on TV in the US? What media format did they release it to? Just on the internet?



After I get back from Korea and my wife gets back from Iraq I'll be buying myself a 3500, maybe I should send my Dad a link to that to give him a few hints



So when is Dodge gonna get the Hemi Charger out there so they can make the same commercial?

That played after American Dreams TV Show last week Sunday night. Ford sponsored the show commercial free. It was the first time I watched the show (The in-laws watched it at our house). In the show which is based in Vietnam era a son came home and his dad gave him a NEW 66 (I believe) Mustang Convertible... ..... Then the commercial played at end of show...

Good on ford, with 1 son in Iraq in the 1st Cav and the other in the Special Forces somewhere it is good to know others still care.

 

[GSherrill]

Hey Aikeren,



I just left the 1st Cav this year and my wife is with them now in Iraq. What does your son do, and where is he in Baghdad?

 

[JKlopp]

Can’t tell you how great that felt. I am an old Vietnam vet who was spit on by the protesters when I returned. Today’s civilian respect for the military is more than deserved

 

[jsimpson]

brought tears to this old vet's eyes...

-USASA 62-65

-USARC 72-75

 

[CajunDieselMan]

The armed services deserve all the respect we can give them. I'm not a vet (though I regret not joining) but I would go to jail for punching out anyone who spit on a vet! If you can't support our solidiers and America it's a free country and you're free to leave--there are over 10,000 miles of borders; pick a spot to exit!!

 

[demodogg]

That was awesome.



Hmmm, I returned home in Sept but no new CTD was waiting for me



In all seriousness though, it was an honor and a priviledge to have served in OIF, I'd go again in a heartbeat (much to my wife's dismay).
