OUR FLAG - Part 1


"There is the national flag. He must be cold indeed who can look upon its folds, rippling in the breeze, without pride of country. If he be in a foreign land, the flag is companionship and country itself, with all its endearments." (Charles Sumner)
Do you get tears in your eyes when you see our flag coming down the street in a parade or when holding your hand over your heart during the national anthem? I do. I hope I never lose those emotions when looking at Old Glory!

OLD GLORY

"This American flag was the safeguard of liberty....It was an ordinance of liberty by the people for the people.  That it meant, that it means, and by the blessing of God, that it will mean to the end of time!"  (Henry Ward Beecher)
