Thanks so much! I even found one of the Rev. War flags on here that was carried into battle by one of the militias in which an ancestor of mine served. I had never seen it before.

Thank you from the Heart Eagle9, for sharing this site with all of us.

I was very deeply stirred to hear the Kate Smith Rendition of 'God Bless America', as well as all the other Classic American Songs.

Thank you once again.
