    When did “Proud to be an American” enter the official musical canon for military bands, that’s rather sad

        “God Bless the U.S.A.” has been a patriotic common-place since the Gulf War in the early 90s. 🙂

        Before that I remember sometimes we talked the TI's into doing that instead of revielle for lights out.

        Is it any worse than "Battle Hymn of the Republic"? People should listen harder to that one.

        I think it's sad that you don't consider that military people playing that music like it. Most of them are in fact proud to be an American. it's very sad that people separate themselves from these individuals. Try and feel something from the heart for them.

        The name of that song is "God Bless the USA." Do your research.
