Unbelievable!
The wife and I own a childcare center and preschool. We PROUDLY fly the flag outside and inside. Every day the preschool session begins with
The Pledge of Allegiance. Each year we have a preschool graduation ceremony where the kids perform several songs before getting their diplomas. We ALWAYS end with them singing
Proud to be an American by Lee Greenwood. Hearing 60-70 4 & 5 year-olds proudly belting out this song sends chills up and down your spine and puts tears in your eyes. The families rave about it.
We then ask all active duty, reservists and veterans and their families to stand and give them the thanks they deserve for the sacrifices they make in keeping our country free.
To all of our CVO brothers and sisters who have ever served this great country, I say THANK YOU for your efforts in keeping and protecting our freedoms

Below are the first few verses of Lee Greenwood's song.

Artist: Lee Greenwood
Title: Proud To Be An American
If tomorrow all the things were gone,
I’d worked for all my life.
And I had to start again,
with just my children and my wife.
I’d thank my lucky stars,
to be livin here today.
‘ Cause the flag still stands for freedom,
and they can’t take that away.
And I’m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I wont forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
And I gladly stand up,
next to you and defend her still today.
‘ Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land,
God bless the USA.
