God bless these men who have served our country and love God. They exhibited great faith during the most difficult of circumstances. This is a wonderful story for all of us who endure trying times--to never give up and to remember to pray to God who is always there to give us the strength to go on.

I believe every word. I, too, have had miracles, and yes, it is God that watches over all his children, worldwide. How wonderful this story can prove to those who do not believe. He is a hero for all of us. Ask, knock, and have enough faith, and you will recieve and have little miracles first. You need to know how to see them, however. It will come to anyone, but you have to ask! The more you have little ones, then if you believe, the bigger ones come. It works. But you have to work to see it. Trust in the Lord. Thanks for the article.

Wow. Very inspiring. Who says LDS are not good Americans? Or Baptists, for that matter?

I am in the military and LDS beliefs are helpful to the US, like in the life of these soldiers...

Peace.

I am a WW1 widow , and I want to thank you ,Larry, for lifting your voice once again ,to remind us of the terrible price that has been paid for the sacred freedoms we appreciate
May you, and many of your comrades, be granted health, strength, and courage to continue to share your painful memories, to inspire countless other hearts and minds.

What a faith promoting story. Thanks to all those who organized this event. I miss being able to sit in the beautiful Provo Tabernacle. It did my heart good to see these older patriotic citizens standing inside that historic building.
God bless us all to treasure freedom and to treat each other with respect and kindness.
