One thing that really stood out to me was the superlative job done by host (former Iraq war infantry commander) Pete Hegseth who never once injected himself into the discussion by mentioning his own combat history.

Two things got my attention.
1. The lack of "selfness" on display from these brave soldiers who all talked of the heroes around them who's names we don't know ...and-
2. What a mockery of these four soldier's bravery and fidelity a jerk like Geraldo would have turned it into by trying to brag about himself as much as possible.

We watched this special as well.
Though I thoroughly dislike anything to do with war and battle, it understood as to why these things are necessary.
The host was excellent and the guests were insightful. Audience gained the opportunity to experience their thoughts and innermost feelings as to how they managed to face death and survive.

It was my understanding this Veterans Day special might be repeated in the future. Correct/or no??

Veterans Day! This is a special day when a lot of brave young men and women joined a branch of military in honor of serving our country to protect our freedoms!
Just think of if we had a Socialist government we would have no freedoms, no rights to worship in a church, being constantly watched in our homes, executed for saying something against the Socialist government, having your government take your paycheck and allowing you very little to live on.
I thank God for my being in the greatest country on the face of the earth!
America should appreciate America’s freedom that we have!
As a vet who has served my country I am ashamed of those Americans who burn our flag, stomp on it, and use it for toilet paper! If you don’t love our country you are always free to move to another country where your freedoms are taken away!
Remember, a lot of vets have have gave it their all and died for you!
God Bless our vets and bless our Commander in Chief Donald J. Trump!
