For our U.S. Army and its unrivaled soldiers, this year marks 240 years of selfless service to the nation
A crowd of 7,500 patriotic Americans attended the U.S. Army’s 2015 Spirit of America show, a performance highlighting our proud history through the eyes of the American Soldier. Aptly named, the Patriot Center on the campus of George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, was brimming with excited men, women, and children who came to pay their respects to our elite soldiers who have sworn to uphold our Constitution and to defend our country so that we may enjoy the freedoms that most take for granted.
The music, the historical narration, re-enacted battle scenes, the live-action dramatization brimming with heart-stirring songs, the bands, and simulated gun and cannon fire told the story of men and women who were either conscripted long-time ago or have volunteered in recent times, having left their friends and families behind and everything they held dear, never knowing whether they would come back or not from the front or theater of operations, to protect and defend our beloved country, the United States of America.
