Oh Say Does that Star Spangled Banner yet Wave…

Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

If you have not seen this on youtube, you may want to watch.

I found it very moving! Thank you to all of you  who have children, spouses or family members  serving.  I keep them in my prayers.

A special prayer for Major Chris Meyers, USMC who served in Iraq and is now in Afghanistan..His parents, wife and children eagerly await his safe return…

  2. I was lucky enough to be able to clap hands for, and shake hands with, a platoon of soldiers returning from Iraq in an airport once. It was very emotional!

    God bless and protect Captian Meyers!

  4. I love this! We are a military family, and one of my most favorite things is going to see a movie on a military base. In every part of the world, no matter what base you're on - it's always the same. Just prior to the movie starting, everyone in the theater rises and stands at attention as they play the National Anthem. It brings tears to my eyes every time.
