Whenever I'm singing "America the Beautiful" and come to that verse, I always have to stop because I get fahklempt.
You know, I've never actually cried while reading a thread on FR... but your post did it! That verse of "America the Beautiful" was perfect. God bless our soldiers, and God bless Iraq as they begin a new page of their history.
Thanks everyone for posting these wonderful pictures that we'll never see from Dan Rather!
