Just like different versions of our Star Spangled Banner, I enjoy different versions of God Bless America.

Indeed! Somewhere in my CD collection I have the USAF Singing Sergeants with solos by George Singleton and Daisy Jackson - wonderful stuff. The story of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and its rendition by George is nothing short of magnificent! George and Daisy were the Bass and Soprano soloists in the Chancel Choir at Westmoreland Congregational Church when I sang with that choir in the mid 1980's. I always tried to stand near George because, aside from having a mighty voice, he was always perfectly on pitch. A couple of real talents and great individuals!



America demands Justice for the Fallen of Benghazi!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
