OLD GLORY
I am the Star Spangled Banner....conceived in 1777 out of the love America bore for Liberty and Honor. I am the Memorial of countless heros who shed their blood to preserve this sacred heritage. I have inspired generations of gallant men who fought against tyranny. I am the spirit of Valley Forge....of sacrifice....of courage. I have guarded every rampart where Freedom defended its glorious cause.... Tripole...Belleau Woods...Argonne Forest...Omaha Beach...Anzio...Bastogne...Guadacanal...Coral Sea...Leyte Gulf...Iwo Jima...Korea...Viet Nam...Persian Gulf. I fly wherever Americans give their lives to preserve the sanctity of life. My home is in the hearts of all who feel a thrill of pride when they salute me and what I symbolize-
God ~ Country ~ Freedom ~ Valor
