Thanks for the song - Ray Charles IS a Great American (R.I.P.)

This photo at 46 seconds of the video hangs on a plaque in my living room - given to me by the local fire department for my support of their efforts to be ready for the next terrorist attack.

One of the few gifts I am proud to have received.

A fabulous tribute Carl, thanks so much for sharing.  Everytime I have heard Ray sing this I get all blinky and proud!   Here's too ya Alan!

Great choice Carl  This song gives me the chills everytime I hear it.  Just like you, it also makes me very proud to be an American.  It actually brings tears to my eyes.  The pictures in this video are awesome, how could anyone not get a tear in their eyes....Thanks for sharing!!

Here, here Mike! Respect and tolerance for all.

I am still pulling for your Dodgers, too. What?? they lost? CRAP!

Sorry, Mike, I was pulling for them.

Thanks for making me cry Carl!! I think we all need something like this to make us stop and remember. I am proud to be a member & the Vice President of my local Fire Dept.s Ladies Auxiliary. Anything to do with 9/11, or our Fire & Rescue Squads hit home for me. I love being able to support, and take care of our guys that are willing to risk their lives for us.

The camaraderie and love shared by America always makes me proud to be American. Together we stand, divided we fall. I hope that everyone realizes that even though we disagree on something, if we strive to understand everyone's views then this too will make us stronger! Live love and laugh. Thanks for sharing this awesome video, God bless the world May we never forget, it will make us Prouder, stronger and united front against anyone fighting against AMERICA.

From one who has been there, worn the flag patch on his uniform, and came home, the Stars and Stripes were the thing that brought tears to your eyes the first time you saw it flying on home soil!  Yes, you would see it at HQ or in the staging areas in Germany or wherever, but when you got back home, and the colors were flying proudly in the breeze, you would tear up and your throat would get dry and tight.  You were home!  Then you would reflect on what you did, and if you lived up to the expectations of the people you left back home.  Then, an inner voice would say..........you did your job, you performed your mission and you came back home!  Every person in the military wants to hear that message............MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!
I did it once, I would gladly do it again if called.  Duty, Honor, Country!
#18 | 32 days ago

I love this one also.  Very moving and absolutely the best!  Thanks to all of you for helping us keep our freedoms and serving our country proudly.  A special thanks for the firefighters, police, EMTs, and all volunteers who assist us every day and do the things that we ourselves cannot do!  For all of you

                                                                                      THANK YOU!!!
#19 | 32 days ago

 This is indeed a Beautiful, moving song!  For ALL of the soldiers past and present.........I SALUTE YOU!!  These pictures make you remember what they fought for and what they went through, we should ALL BE PROUD to be AN AMERICAN and NEVER FORGET OUR SOLDIERS!  Ray Charles sung it Best!!       R.I.P.
#20 | 32 days ago

yes and it still does what it did years ago with the goose bumps and the hair standing on end on my neck.....we all need to come to the aid of our country because the dipwads we elected and sent to washington dc are not doing what they promised us, and then they are acting like we dont have a say in the matter that are at hand, or they think we are to stupid to understand the language in the bills well dipwads get the damn lawyers out of washington dc and make it simple oh i am sorry then then they would be doing their job.......they think that we will vote the same way we have done in the past,well i tell you what if donald duck or mickey mouse is on the ballot and the dipwads that got us into the situation we are in now are on the same aforementioned ballot well donald and mickey are going to washington...................................wake up america

Timmay, I just personally want to say thank you for all that you did, and I am SO glad you are home and safe!  It seems like such a small thing to say for all that you did, but I salute you and pray that God watches over you and all of our men past and present who fight for this great nation of ours.  Hugzzzzz and love to you and yours.  ~Seal
