"BEFORE YOU GO" - Giving Thanks Before They Are All Gone
National Morality. Com ^ | January 2006 | Sam Bierstock and John Melnick

Posted on 01/10/2006 3:21:33 PM PST by tenn2005

The song "Before You Go" does more than salute those who fought in WWII. It encourages people to go out of their way to thank the aging warriors before they die. "If we had lost that particular war, our whole way of life would have been shot," says Bierstock, who plays harmonica. "Every ethnic minority would be dead." And the old vets are now dying at the rate of about 2,000 every day.

This is a musical video that will touch the heart of every person who has a relative who fought in WWII. Be sure that your sound is turned up.

One of the greatest pleasures I have had in the job that I do now was to work with the retired teachers from the Ohio State Teachers Retirement System. Many of those teachers were World War II veterans, and it was always a pleasure to tell them "Thank you for what you did."

Thank you for what you did. You guys saved the world.
