THIS WE'LL DEFEND: THE MUSIC VIDEO


photo by Buck Sargent

Like an earlier generation, America is pursuing a clear strategy with our allies to achieve victory. Our immediate strategy is to eliminate terrorist threats abroad, so we do not have to face them here at home. The theory here is straightforward: terrorists are less likely to endanger our security if they are worried about their own security. When terrorists spend their days struggling to avoid death or capture, they are less capable of arming and training to commit new attacks. We will keep the terrorists on the run, until they have nowhere left to hide.

Members of our military are undertaking difficult missions, in some of the most dangerous and desolate parts of the world. These volunteers know the risks they face, and they know the cause they serve. In this vital cause, some of our men and women in uniform have fallen, some have returned home with terrible injuries, and all who sacrifice will have the permanent gratitude of the United States of America.
-President George W. Bush

THIS WE'LL DEFEND
Filmed, edited, and produced by BUCK SARGENT

Love the video! Great photography, editing, etc. We always look forward to seeing new stuff from you. We have shared this blog with every one we know so they are able to see just a tiny glimpse of what our hero soldiers (in past and present wars) endure and live on a daily basis.

Thanks for the video, I keep you all in my thoughts an prayers daily.

Honey, you're amazing!
Love,
Your Wifey

Ohmygosh!!!!!!!!! Every time I hear that song my eyes get all misty and I think of all of you there - a million thoughts and images go through my mind every time. I wish you didn't have to be there, but ever so grateful that you have the courage, fortitude and determination to defend freedom.

As for the video, sorry Toby, but yours doesn't hold a candle to this one!! No offense! This is so awsome!

This is the first time I have been to your site - what a first impression!! I will definitely be back to see how you are doing.

Take extra good care of yourself, and thank you, so much, for all you do.

One of the best Pro-Freedom music video's I've ever watched.
The ending sequence was perfect.
Im still waiting for 'Give war a chance'. I watched the preview a while back and was quite taken.
Im wondering if it's going to be a full length docu or what...if so...will you sell DVD's??? I would so buy one.
Buck God bless you and God bless this most excellent county of ours.

Wonderful, Buck. Simply breathtaking! You have more talent in your little toe than Michael Moore has in all his obesity.

Simply being over there and doing what you're doing gives you more credibility than any big budget movie maker.

I love your blog and have spread the word as far and wide as is possible at the University of Average Achievers (UAA). I think the libs are getting tired of me but I feel that your work is important and should be viewed by as many people as possible.

Keep up the good work!

great job buck...my hubby is over there with you now. all though, i didn't see him in the video, it was good to see those that i enjoyed a cold beer with or i made dinner for or even given them a ride home from the airport or to work...you touched my heart and brought tears to my eyes. more of these need to be made, so that others can see what you all go though and they can appreciate and be thankful that we have our freedom. thank you and take care of each other, i pray that you all will come home soon.

Really enjoyed the video - good job! Thanks for taking the time & making the effort. Wish everyone could see it. I appreciate all that y'all are doing to insure our freedom here at home and the help you're giving to the Iraqis. It's a historic thing in which you're involved. I'm forever grateful. Stay safe, Katy

Simply awesome. Thank you for sharing and THANK YOU for your service.

Awesome! That gave me goosebumps and brought a lump to my throat. First visit to your blog but I'll certainly come back. You're doing a great job out there, take care

Another excellent video and commentary! Keep it up!
