    Don't know if you people remember this man, but he deserves to be remembered. If I'm not mistaken he had a broken wrist back in 2011, and instead of putting it in a caste he went out and stood his post for the entire rally. This man deserves to be remembered by everyone of us, I don't care if you don't agree with the wars, with the government, or even the military in general. This man goes out and honors the fallen, honors the warriors who went without, and honors the warriors who many thought it better to spit on, all of his own free will. God Bless you Staff Sergeant Chambers, may the world remember your name, and may your family go without want.

    What a wonderful, selfless act of Remembrance. I'm English, but can still appreciate the way he honoured his brothers in arms, both living and dead. This is just one reason why America can return to it's former glory. I salute this guy for everything good that this video stands for. In perfect English " Dashed fine show Old Boy- Absolutely capital" :-)

    Rolling Thunder was a few yrs ago. This is emotional. You see it in the face of the Marine. With three Nephews Serving one Deployed now and a Daughter or Marine. This makes my heart just melt

    I lived just outside of D.C. the very first year of Rolling Thunder. I heard my apartment windows vibrate, and the floors shook, as all these fine veterans rode by. I later went down to the Mall, where I heard the most amazing speeches and met some of the best people in my life. Watching this makes me still have hope for our country.

    In case anyone wonders what real honor looks like, this is it. Thank you SSGT Tim Chambers for all you do to remember the fallen. Slow salute.

    There really are no words that could ever describe how wonderful this tribute is. I think we take for granted our freedoms and need to be reminded that these freedoms come with a cost. Thank you to all those who have served and serving. And not to forget their families as well...THANK YOU...

    No matter the color of a person's skin, if he or she bleeds Red, White and Blue, they are comrades to the end.

    When that Vet stopped his bike and raised a salute to that Marine, I couldn't help but get choked up. One of the most beautiful moments I've seen in a long time. Thank you for posting this!
