They have withstood hard Winters and Summers of draught and dust storms. The American people have sharpened their skills to survive. JEFFERSON: We are a caring and generous people. A cry comes out from our land or a devastated country. We respond the American way to their need. We are a land of plenty. ROOSEVELT: As a bomber thunders over us it wakes us to remind us of our freedom. We are wrapped up in the safety and protection of our Armed Forces. Our flag waves high!
