•Old Glory, with the flairs of our Allies, England, Russia and China, waves proudly on many battle front*, these war-scarred days. It carries its message of hope and freedom to the humblest souls of the oppressed peoples in the conquered lands and definitely warns the aggressor that the day of reckoning is at hand. In tho history of our nation the flag has had a notable series of traditions to endear it to the hearts of Americans. The battlefields of this war will add to its great glory. The bravery of America’s fighting men recalls the words of Oliver Wendell Holmes: “One flag, one land, one heart, one hand, one Nation, evermore:” • • What So Proudly ^ e Hail /
