[QUOTE="Williamsv, post: 1184213, member: 22323"] I regret missing the program about the flag on history channel Nothing is more beautiful that looking at our flag blowing in the wind against a blue sky. Goose bumps come on me every time I see it or hear the "Star Spangled Banner." When my daughter was in high school, she sang "The Star-Spangled Banner"before football and baseball games. That would bring tears to my eyes and still does today when I hear it sung, if it is sung correctly. The prettiest verse of "America the Beautiful" is the fourth. O beautiful for patriot dream,That sees beyond the years, Thine alabaster cities gleam, Undimmed by human tears! America, America! God shed His grace on thee, And crown thy good with brotherhood From sea to shining sea. Of course the first verse is beautiful,too. I hope children are singing these songs in school now and learning about the flag and all the other symbols of our country. Much of our American History was being taken out of the curriculum before I retired. I always tried to teach it and as much Georgia History as time allowed. We must teach our children to love our country, the flag, and know why we are able to fly it and enjoy the freedoms that we have left. [/QUOTE]
