Hi. I’m Rodney
Allen Rippy. The inspiration behind this song stems from one of the first American
soldier's killed in Iraq. The song (21 Days
From Home) is
a tribute to him and all of the American soldiers and veterans who have
dedicated their lives in preserving the rights of our country. Visit "21daysfromhome.org"
to find out how you can help our veterans and obtain a copy of this
song. Without their help, neither, you or I, could have awakened this
morning to the best country in the world.
I have a special word for all the men and women who wear the uniform of
the United States: America is grateful for a job well done. The
character of our military through history, the daring of Normandy, the
fierce courage of Iwo Jima, the decency and idealism that turned enemies
into allies is fully present in this generation. When I look at the
members of the United States military, I see the best of our country and
I am honored to be an American. |
