  • Ellen Added Everyone among the woke crowd who said" %$@# the 4th of July", should see your video and learn something about their history. They should be ashamed of their behavior.
  • Pat Burns Added That will send chills down your spine if you have any compassion at all. This is a beautiful story and very meaningful for all AMERICANS. I just wish it could be sent to everyone right now. Thank You for it.
  • Carole Added This is a wonderful story that I had not heard before. It is amazing what our Patriots did for us. The one issue that does concern me and most people do not know is that Francis Scot Key was a terrible racist and the other verse of the song has words that are supportive of slavery.
  • Paul Added That gave me chills. I love our country !!!
  • Ruth Bergman Added I cried so hard for what they went thru. If only others could watch and appreciate what they did to die for our country. prayer is all we have left.
  • Ruth Lampe Added You really ought to check the accuracy of the words to the anthem before publishing it. "Hailed," not "held." "Fight" not "flight.' "Ramparts," not "ramperts."
  • david Added awesome video . I had forgotten about the roots of the song. its a good reminder what the flag means to Americans... so, what does it mean to you?
  • Mike Added Great video. Only issue with it is referring to colonies. This was the war of 1812, there were 19 states by then. But the video does a great job of giving meaning to the words of the song.
  • CharMaine Added And it is the perpetual American that will hold that flag upright and proudly today. I refuse to surrender my country without a fight. Till my last breath, if necessary. Godspeed to all the Patriots out there. We didn't start this fight but we sure as heck will finish it.
  • Ellen Bidwell Added I would love to know who did the reading, as well as the singing. Both did a beautiful job!
  • Gert Added This is absolutely beautiful! Thank You so much for sharing it, Mel!
  • Jean Added Wonderful presentation. I am wondering who gave the commentary and who sang the anthem? Thanks, Jean
  • BA Added Thanks for this terrific video Mel. It taught me a lot I didn't know about that night. It sent shrills down my spine.
  • ursula hartunian Added so glad to be an American!!!
  • Love Added That was a very good video - that deserves a coffee. Happy, healthy Fourth
  • Forrest Ballinger Added Touching, but terribly inaccurate. First it speaks of a battle that took place at Ft. McHenry, but calls it Ft. Henry. Secondly, but just as importantly, there were actually few casualties there and certainly, the flag was NOT supported by bodies. Mel, I know this is a popular video, but sooo distorted!@
  • CAROL HAZELETT Added MEL, THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL THANK YOU!!!!
  • Blanche Added This was beautiful.
  • Ann Added EVERY HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT SHOULD SEE THIS VIDEO.
  • Patrick Added Beautifully done. Everyone of age should serve time in the military like the Israelis, and learn what our country & flag is all about and be proud to live in such a wonderful free land. Those that don't care to serve should just relocate to another country of their choice, just not here.
