>> "Eternal Father" - The U.S. Navy Hymn

Thank you so much for the link, Cowgirl. When I was in bootcamp in the 1960's, I was the Bluejackets Choir. Every night before taps we sang the Navy Hymn. It always put tears in my eyes. So many have given their lives for our freedoms. We honor them with this hymn, and we honor them with our eternal vigilance.
