Those words mean something, noted Brass, as do the words to the fight songs of the five branches of the military, the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard.  In honor of each branch of service, he read the lyrics of each song.

“You listen to the words of these fight songs, the words of the Oath of Enlistment and the words to Lee Greenwood’s ‘God Bless the USA.” Brass said, “and it all goes back to honoring these great men and women who have died.”
