Who doesn’t cry on the Fourth of July when Old Glory so proudly waves? Whose heart doesn’t pound at the very sound of ten guns at the warrior graves? Do you feel a slight chill with hand over heart as the Star Spangled Banner is played? Does a tear trickle down your cheek seeing Vets march in a parade? Does the sight of a child clutching a flag make you hopeful for the future of man Do you feel pride in your birthright today from whence this greatness began? If you answered yes to all the above if your country you will defend then you are the greatest of patriots, a true American, my friend. |
