__Every so often, as history demands, the character of a country must be tested. When such time comes, the duty falls on those who call themselves Americans, to stand behind their country for what we believe to be just and right. Together we have stood and together we will stand. We will not give up, nor will we give in. When the call is made and war begins, heads rise in admiration to those who will stand tall to ensure that the blessings of liberty and the posterity of freedom will not bend to the selfish hatred of those who wish to deny us that inevitable right to freedom and the pursuit of happiness which we as Americans will not be deprived of. God Bless the USA and the veterans who have, do, and will defend this country and the freedom it stands for.

As an additional tribute, here are the respective marches of the main branches of the Armed Forces:

• Air Force: "Off we go, into the wild blue yonder..."
  
• Navy: "Anchors Aweigh"
  
• Army: "The caissons keep rolling along"
  
• Marine Corps: "From the halls of Montezuma"

Here's to the veterans.
