The Star-Spangled Banner means a lot of different things to a lot of people, but for those who have served in the military, it has a very deep meaning. My Daddy has many memories from serving during the Vietnam War, and although he rarely speaks of it, he is highly decorated, including receiving the Bronze Star. He is patriotic and boldly shares his gratitude for God and America, as both should be represented, that is. He has a love for gospel music and patriotic music. Jeremy had a great idea to make a video recording of The National Anthem for Daddy. We recently converted cassette tapes to CDs for he and mom of, "The Whitt's, the family ministry we had some years ago; we could tell this meant a lot. Now, we are happy to pay him honor with The Star-Spangled Banner, the National Anthem of the USA.

The Star-Spangled Banner (Fracis Scott Key, 1814) Dedicated to Calvin (Cabby) Whitt, "Daddy" - We ALL love you, Daddy / Papaw! You mean so much to so many people! An awesome husband to Mom / Mamaw, a caring Daddy and Papaw, a wonderful family and friend to so many, a highly decorated (though very humble and hardly mentioned) United States Army Veteran, and other names you have worn, and still wear, with great respect such as 'Chief', 'Coach', and 'Minister'. Thank you, Daddy, for being our hero! You liked the CDs we converted from tapes so much, we are thrilled to give you a 'now recording' of one of your most treasured songs!
