There has been an outburst of seemingly poor judgement by many people who fail to stand for Our Country's "Pledge of Allegiance" and the playing or singing of Our "National Anthem"... in essence using this kneeling or sitting as an act of protest against America, against the United States of America, its Flag and its Anthem... All seem to have their reasons, but our founding fathers sought to create a Country that was and is based on Freedom... Are there rules? Of course. We Have Our "Declaration of Independence", and Our "U.S. Constitution" and we have Our "Bill of RIghts". We have a three tiered government based on an "Executive Branch", a "Judicial Branch" and "Law Making Branch"... Our Congress. Is it perfect? Nothing is perfect, but it is closer than any other in Our world.
There are those that would annihilate us and those who see "Globalism" as the basis for a world government... There are those that would sacrifice our Freedoms for their own sake alone... We the people choose to Stand for Our Flag, Stand for Our Anthem as a solemn respect for what our Flag and Anthem have represented for over 200 years.
I offer this short tribute to all the people of the United States of America who believe in the rule of law, who respect our Country and will do anything to protect the freedoms we have. In creating this short video, I found John Williams, new rendition, of our Star Spangled Banner to be most uplifting... As a United States Air Force Disabled Veteran, I honor the solemn oath I took when I enlisted and will honor it until my last breath is taken... I stand and salute Our Flag and I stand and salute Our Anthem...
May we always be free, may we always set a positive example for all the world... God Bless the United States of America and Our Flag and the Republic for which it stands..

I also stand for and salute when the National anthem is played. i had served proudly in the US Air Force including Vietnam. On a regular basis at the American Legion and AMVETS I and my fellow members pay tribute to our national colors. My 93 year old father is WWII Veteran of the US Navy and both of us are proud of our service. My first relatives arrived in Sudbury, Massachusetts in 1640 and some even fought in the French and Indian War, the from the Revolutionary War up to Me in Vietnam. (as far as I can tell I know of none that fought in the civil war) What that flag and the United States of America means to Me is very important. There isn't and never has been any member of My family that hasn't shown that proper respect and We are all proud of our American Heritage and what that flag and the National Anthem mean to all of us.

Thanks for watching my video... My Grandfather, on my Dad's side, was a Navy man in WWI and my Dad was Navy aboard the Essex Class Aircraft Carrier Bon Homme Richard in WWII. For me, I was in during the Vietnam Era. They were both proud of their service as am I.

You and any other Veterans would be more than welcome to attend. We have coffee and Muffins from a great Muffin place in Medway that are donated by Medway Oil who even deliver them to the post. I'm there almost every Thursday morning. Usually by 0900 there are plenty of guys there and We stay until We decide to go, guys are in and out.

I am at our winter home in Fort Myers until April 11th, so I couldn't make it... LOL! Thursdays I work for my youngest son's IT company and do network alert monitoring... I am actually doing it from FL, now... When I am home I usually go in to the office on Thursdays... That said, I can schedule to work on Wed. or Fri., so when I return to Franklin, I will schedule ahead of time and contact you so you will know when I am dropping in... BTW, my DAV meetings are held the 3rd Saturday of each month... We take January & February (snow) & July and August off (Summer vacations). My Sr. Vice Commander will run our March Meeting and I will run our meeting on April 20th at 10am... You are more than welcome to stop in as my guest...
