The enemy who occupied these heights saw the largest naval armada in history of the world.Just a few miles offshore were 7k vessels bearing 130k warriors.They were the citizens of free and independent nations, united by their duty to their compatriots and to millions yet unborn.
Finally, there were the AMERICANS. They came from the farms of a vast heartland,the streets of glowing cities and the forges of mighty industrial towns. Before the war,many had never ventured beyond their communities. Now they had come to offer their lives half a world from home.
More powerful than the strength of American Arms was the strength of American HEARTS.
The exceptional MIGHT came from a truly exceptional SPIRIT. The abundance of courage came from an abundance of faith. The great deeds of our Army came from the great depths of their love.
Beautiful comment.
