The Star Spangled Banner – Verse Four
(Click)

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Please let me know by Freepmail if you would like
to be admitted to or released from my music ping list.

Thanks for the TBT, Luv!

I was on FR then - not sure if I had visited the Canteen yet. But it was great to see, among others, Tonk, who I had the fortune to know in this venue.

And, of course, many others, some of whom are still here with us!

"Hige sceal þe heardra, heorte þe cenre / mod sceal þe mare, þe ure mægen lytlað."
"Thought must be the harder, heart be the keener / mind must be the greater, as our might lessens."

It’s very nostalgic. I can remember exactly what I was doing that evening. Nearly 10 years ago...how time flies in the Canteen...and in real life! :)

Good evening, Kathy...((HUGS))...had a good Maddi Wednesday as she went with me to PT and RX to get my scripts. Tuesday I was in Tucson so didn’t get to see her. Even today was to hot and Buggy to play outside.

Must retire for the evening.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer,
already mounts the parapet.

Good night, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America!

Godspeed our Troops around the Globe – especially those in harm’s way – by virtue of their service and sacrifice we continue to live in Freedom!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thank you for your service to our country.

Hot and buggy isn’t fun....glad she could make your “rounds” with you. Memories are being made.

Howdy, EGC! (((hugs)))

All is well here except for the heat. It’s even warmer this morning because of higher humidity.

Hope you and Bo are keeping cool! :)

[luvie]

I'm totally NOT the Early Bird, Early Birds!
It's hot and humid here and it's barely 7am!
Soooo not a hot tea morning!
But...have to have it with my roll, right? :)
Anyhoooooo....all y'all have a Thrilling Thursday!
Ok...that was lame! LOL!
((((hugs))))
