Blimey, I was sent this link and, it suddenly got a bit smokey near where I was sitting. Perhaps I'm just being soft.

Second that. Kids seemed happy though - until he goes for another 12-15 mth depolyment.....
Oh well, I'll get over it.
Like the way the kids sing the national anthem though, wonder what the chances are of it happening here :)

It's probably not allowed in the UK for fear of offending minorities, while I'm sure the same Americans who applaud it at home would call it brainwashing in Iran.

Not at all. We'd love for them to get a headstart on learning our national anthem! :}

They might serve their sincerity with extra large helpings of cheese, but the public loves their miltary and they really make tremendous efforts to do everything in memorable ways. I keep on saying it; we can learn a trick or two from the US military.

Nice little reminder that the Service people out there doing the hard and dangerous work are all Brothers, Sisters, Mothers, Fathers, Sons and Daughters; whatever the uniform or the politics of the home country. That little girl's face says it all.
