Music Key: - Lyrics - Song |
Patriotism is easy to understand in America; it means looking out for yourself by looking out for your country. ----Calvin Coolidge |
~ Flag Salute ~ (Click on each flag) |
I think patriotism is like charity -- it begins at home. ------Henry James |

O beautiful for heroes prov'd In liberating strife, Who more than self their country loved, And mercy more than life. --- "America The Beautiful" Katherine Lee Bates (July 4, 1895) |

On April 29, 2004, as a service and tribute to members of the World War II Generation, the National World War II Memorial opened for public viewing, exactly one month prior to the formal Dedication Ceremony taking place May 29, 2004. The World War II Memorial is the first national memorial dedicated to all who served during the Second World War. The memorial, established by the American Battle Monuments Commission, honors all military veterans of the war, the citizens on the home front, the nation at large, and the high moral purpose and idealism that motivated the nation's call to arms. The Second World War is the only 20th-century event commemorated on the Mall's central axis. (from www.wwiimemorial.com)
Don't forget that you can watch the dedication today!! God Bless all of our Veterans & Active Duty!!! |

They probably all clicked more than once to "record the information". According to Auntie Fawnn who keeps track of those type of things. Hehe!

Hey, I know how it is. In the AF, we have 2 bad sayings.
1. I got orders to Korea
2. I have to go to the desert.
The desert now is a changing thing. No more Southern nor Northern watch. But, we still rotate in and out usually 90 days.
Korea is a bit different. One year unaccompanied. Live in a dorm and exercise NBC situations all the time.
I enjoy my assignment. But I feel guilty I am stateside.
I am at a training base so I can't go.
