  • Broadcast live from the west lawn of the U.S. Capitol building in Washington D.C., the National Memorial Day Concert has become an annual salute to the men & women who serve in each & every branch of the U.S. Armed Forces.
    With over 20 years of concerts, everyone in the audience who has served, or who are currently serving, is asked to please stand, & join in as their song is presented.
    Never forget the terrible sacrifices made by so many, for so long, in order to continuously secure our freedom.

    My mom is a Navy commander, and my dad is a retired U.S. Marine. Always super proud when I hear their songs play.

      I'm sorry, but I have enough knowledge of biochemistry, from my many hours of studying, that I can make another you, it would be crude and most likely die in three days, but nonetheless, it would be another "human" with your DNA. Now, who here has the weak mind, mister conspiracy theorist? Take a look at the word theory, it mean "an unproven possibility." When I call you a conspiracy theorist, I am calling you "one whom believes in an unproven, yet possible, conspiracy." The only reason it's even remotely possible is because of Murphy's Law, which states, "what can happen, will happen." But don't get your hopes up, Murphy's Law applies to a multiverse, which means an infinitely low chance of it happening in our own universe.

    " Semper Paratus "
    - We're always ready for the call,
    We place our trust in Thee.
    Through surf and storm and howling gale,
    High shall our purpose be.
    "Semper Paratus" is our guide,
    Our fame, our glory too.
    To fight, to save or fight and die,
    Aye! Coast Guard we are for you!
    " The Air Force Song "
    - Off we go into the wild blue yonder,
    Climbing high into the sun;
    Here they come zooming to meet our thunder,
    At 'em boys, Give 'er the gun! (Give 'er the gun!)
    Down we dive, spouting our flame from under,
    Off with one helluva roar!
    We live in fame or go down in flame. Hey!
    Nothing'll stop the U.S. Air Force!
    " Anchors Aweigh "
    - Anchors Aweigh, my boys,
    Anchors Aweigh.
    Farewell to foreign shores,
    We sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay.
    Through our last night ashore,
    Drink to the foam,
    Until we meet once more.
    Here's wishing you a happy voyage home.
    " Halls Of Montezuma "
    - From the Halls of Montezuma,
    To the Shores of Tripoli;
    We will fight our country's battles
    In the air, on land, and sea;
    First to fight for right and freedom
    And to keep our honor clean;
    We are proud to claim the title
    of United States Marine!
    " The Army Goes Rolling Along "
    - First to fight for the right,
    And to build the Nation’s might,
    And The Army Goes Rolling Along.
    Proud of all we have done,
    Fighting till the battle’s won,
    And the Army Goes Rolling Along.
    Then it’s Hi! Hi! Hey!
    The Army’s on its way.
    Count off the cadence loud and strong!
    For where e’er we go,
    You will always know,
    That The Army Goes Rolling Along!

    The story also explains that due to the standard SNAFU in the military, 2 others on that day were also to receive the medal...but did not. Their process had to start all over again. You will soon see these 2 men live on television receiving their well overdue medals.

    • @agirlandherglock8816
      @agirlandherglock8816 8 років тому

      +73seabee Incorrect. The Coast Guard was formed in 1915. The Air Force was formed in 1947 (it had previously been part of the Army). Since the Coast Guard is presented first, and it's older than the Air Force, it is NOT going from newest to oldest.

    • @agirlandherglock8816
      @agirlandherglock8816 8 років тому

      +73seabee fun fact, it IS going in order from highest to lowest of the minimum ASVAB score required to enlist. Coast Guard: 40. Air Force: 36 Navy: 35 Marines:32 Army:31.

    • @willausterman3104
      @willausterman3104 7 років тому

      The modern Coast Guard was formed in 1915, but it dates back to 1790. The order is likely just based off of the song arrangement but the ASVAB score trend is quite funny.

    The United States Coast Guard was activated on August 4th 1790. The Navy was activated on October 13th 1775 and thought to be to expensive to operate so it was unactivated in 1790 then activated again in 1797. You got the Air Force, Army, and Marines right.

I'm very much in love with the Ocean. I was in MC JROTC in HS but that doesn't coun't. I think that's why I would cry cause I wan't to be a sailor so bad.
