Nobody mentioned seeing Ronald Reagan in the video. Somebody always mentions that. I guess I just did.

Actually, the OP did mention it. It's in the 5th from last paragraph.

Your "Snopes" post is not from "Snopes". The dates are off by a year oer two, but the story is essentially true.

cThe country became more united after Dec 7, 1941. Up until then, not so much. Lasted for a few years then became less and less united until Sept 11, 2001. But now it's back to "what's in it for me". Usually takes some national tragedy to bring people together.


Right! My son was in the Navy at the time. I think he was a Petty Officer first class at the time. Just before 9-11 he was thinking of leaving the Navy and working with his friend. 9-11 came along and it completely changed him.
He retired last year with 21 years of service as Chief Petty Officer.

OK, I thought you were joking, but I see that what was supposed to be about 10 American Flags only shows up as USUSUSUS...
They were emojis from my iPhone. They look fine on that.
Sorry.

I'm old enough to remember her TV show in the afternoon.
Her theme song was :when the moon comes over the mountain".
Still gives me shivers when I hear her voice.

Thanks to the will of the Steinbrenner family, it is played at every home game the Yankees play, in the 7th inning.

That was great and had tears running down my cheeks . And I am English . You have some great patriotic songs. I happen to be a member of the American Al Jolson society , I guess I was born in the wrong country75 years ago.

I guess you can tell I didn't read that whole thing since I had seen the video and heard the story before. I just looked for any mention of him in the other posts. My bad.

Thanks for the explanation. The only thing I saw was a line of square boxes. If I see it again I will know they are supposed to be American flags.
