September 11 is a day we all should never forget. Brett Baiers special report '13 Hours' interviewed those that knew there was an order to stand down and I can't help but wonder if these men would have survived if help arrived...a tribute to those that died.
WWII Wee Willie Bomber and Crew
WWII Wee Willy Bomber was shot down over Berlin April 8, 1945 - just one month before the end of the war.
I recently did a video Benghazi No One Came. Putting together this video one of the stories that still today gives me chills is of a group of men from a great generation. They came together from all parts of this great country and you can see in this photo of the B-17 Wee Willy bomber and crew that they were so proud. Some might have had wives, girlfriends, daughters, sons. Then on April 8, 1945 the plane was shot down over Berlin, just one month before the end of the war. Maybe that’s the part that gives me the chills. The fact that there are these two photos; the crew and the loss of the crew. I myself don’t know any of these men personally. I’ve always know what Memorial Day was about but it wasn’t until I did the Benghazi tribute video that I really knew what it meant. So on this Memorial Day this one American wants to remember those that died fighting for our freedom. I just posted photos of my Uncles that fought in WWII and I realize that I’ve taken for granted freedom. Maybe this video will change one more person on this Memorial Day; I know it changed me. It matters to me! http://frankcrocco.com
Memorial Day is upon us. I hope everyone take a few moments out of their busy lives to stop and remember those that fought bravely and died courageously defending our country. (instead of remembering to hit the stores for those sales) As you remember those that have fallen keep in mind the Benghazi tragedy. For those 4 individuals we have yet to know the truth as to why they lost their lives. My Benghazi tribute is a tribute to them and all who have lost their lives defending our country.
This morning when I left for work i heard about the newly released emails on the Benghazi terror attacks. I thought maybe the press would really wake up and get to the bottom of this and find out if there was a coverup and we Americans would know the truth. Benghazi has been very important to me. The loss of life and the lack of response (No One Came) touched me deeply. So much that I wrote a song to keep this tragedy alive in peoples minds https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEagsf7fZAk
Unfortunately, by the time I got home from work the coverup was on again. Carney and the White House are once again spinning what we the American people know. Failure of our current administration to serve and protect.
I guess "someone's" ( and hopefully you remember who said it!) words are continuing to ring true....'at this point, what difference does it make' . In an early interview with a mother of one of the victims there was a promise to get to the bottom of the attacks. I think it does make a difference and the truth needs to be revealed.
Shameful on abc, cbs and nbc. not one of these stations was in arizona where the BLM was going after americans the drug cartells can cross the boarder bringing drugs to kill your kids and mind..illegals can cross federal land and not one reaction or a pellet gun is pointed at these people.
Why is it that they never report on the number of US Military casualties in Afghanistan? I can remember years past when every night on the nightly news there was a "body count" reported of the number of deaths in Iraq. Doesn't anyone find it funny that under this administration - we aren't hearing more about the number that have died? Why aren't they rolling out Sheehan every night to protest the war? Could it be that they don't want to tarnish the annointed one's image?
Saw this video on Fox and Friends this morning and Mike Rowe did a great segment on how to stimulate job growth in america. He talks about work ethic and how our younger generation has been brainwashed into what is "acceptable" work.
This is my first time starting a blog and I'm a new member so here goes nothing! There have been so many scandals with our current government that its hard to keep track. There was Fast and Furious, the IRS scandal, (I know i'm forgetting some....and there is probably some I don't even know about) and Benghazi. They all seemed to fall on a deaf ear with the press and the GOP. I think everyone must do their part to keep everyone talking about these. Benghazi was the one that pushed me to do something. I'm a songwriter so naturally, I wrote a song. No One Came is a tribute to those that died at the Benghazi embassy and other fallen military members. Just this past week I added a youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jEagsf7fZAk to keep people talking. I'd like to hear about what other people are doing to keep people talking.
