I live off base but the anthem is audible in my neighborhood depending on the wind. A couple weeks ago I was out with my 4 year old and a couple of the neighbor kids when we heard a few notes. All of the kids (all military) stopped what they were doing and faced the music and stood tall. Then the other day, we were driving on to the base as the music started. My boy called out from the back seat "Dad you have to put your hand over your heart" (his mom taught him that). I looked back to se him concentrating on the music with his hand over his heart. Made me proud.
Sorry to be a bit sappy on a Friday, but for those that question the newer generations and the future of this country I present the following...maybe there is hope.
