​​Today's Quote from Our Flag

America proves its mettle (resiliency / fortitude) again!!!

"A million men cannot take Tarawa in a hundred years."
-Japanese Rear Admiral Keiji Shibasaki

The 2nd Marine Division of the US Marine Corps made Shibasaki eat his words by taking the island in 4 days (Battle of Tarawa: Nov. 20 - 23, 1943)

And, now it's time to ...
Recite the Pledge of Allegiance
Students across America, at school or at home, after hearing another occasion of America's amazing will to win, you can now recite the Pledge more meaningfully ;) 

Thanks for participating in today's U.S. Flag tribute.

Go out and 'Be a STUD Citizen' (awesome citizen) today
Keep America Beautiful, and remember,
In God We Trust

​In God We Trust
(Official motto of the United States of America)
