Our voices rang out on Saturday, August 21, at a flag retirement ceremony on the square in Bedford, Ohio.

Oh, say can you see, by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?

When the song was finished, the crowd was silent as a worn flag was carried out. Led by Ernie Walker, scout master and Boy Scout Troop 447, American flags were retired by cutting them star by star and stripe by stripe. When an American Flag is no longer a fitting emblem for display it is destroyed in a dignified manner by burning and then burying the ashes. The ashes from the retired flags will be interred at Bedford Cemetery.

TRIBUTE ON THE BEACH 2013 

HERE WAS A CURRENT PRESS  RELEASE

Parma Resident Jimmy Flynn Honors U.S. Troops And Veterans

North Myrtle Beach, S.C.- September 19, 2013- Local patriotic singer/songwriter, Jimmy Flynn, honored U.S. troops and veterans by singing five of his original patriotic songs at the annual Tribute On The Beach in North Myrtle Beach, S.C. on Thursday, September 19, 2013.

Accompanied by an Honor Guard and a U.S. Air Force flyover, 600 flag-waving patriots assembled during the tune, If You Love Your Freedom, Thank A Vet, and then gratefully shook the hands of all 125 teary-eyed, appreciative veterans during his song, We Give Our Thanks To You. Two 94 year old veterans of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam were present. Vietnam War veterans emotionally stated, "...this was the first time we were ever thanked for our service in such a grand and public manner." Jimmy introduced his newest single, American Veteran (God Bless You), followed by America-Home, Sweet Home. The tribute ended with an uplifting sing-along to the incomparable Kate Smith's version of God Bless America, while the assembled joined hands, encircling the veterans.

"I have dedicated the last seven years of my life to writing, recording, and performing patriotic songs," stated Mr. Flynn. "I'm just trying to do my part to show how much we Americans value and appreciate our troops and veterans. After all, if not for them, where would we be? What would we do?"

Jimmy Flynn's CD is entitled, My America, Vol.1. Jimmy is available for live performances and/or as a DJ for events.

Local radio personality at WNCX 98.5 FM, Bill Louis (below left), was the emcee and did his usual fine job. The Boy Scouts of America, Bedford's police department, and the USO participated. Mr. Joe Spellacy of Three Discateers Entertainment provided the sound system and music.

VETERANS DAY RECOGNITION DINNER 

NOVEMBER 7, 2009

Thank YouI was honored to perform four of my patriotic songs on Saturday,November 7, 2009 at the Youngstown Masonic Temple for the Annual Veterans Day recognition Dinner, entitled: "In the Presence of Heroes." The Ancient Accepted Scottish Rile Valley of Youngstown invited Thomas A. Ross, former Major, U.S. Army Special Forces (also known as the Green Berets) to be Guest Speaker.

Mr. Ross is the President/CEO of The Ross Jewelry company in Atlanta, Georgia. He is also the author of Privileges of War, a Vietnam era book that tells positive stories of those who served during an unpopular war.  While serving as the Operations and Intelligence Officer of Special Forces Detachment A-502 in Vietnam, Mr. Ross says he witnessed many unselfish and courageous deeds by both men and women. These deeds form the foundation of his book.

The Book- The first section of Mr. Ross' book documents day-to-day life in Vietnam, which could be both nauseatingly gut wrenching and euphorically exhilarating. the second section of the book presents an obscure and relatively unreported story of the "Rescue in the Valley of the Tigers." The story of the rescue recounts a life saving mission mounted by a small group of daring Americans determined to give the girt of freedom to inhabitants of a mountain village who had been held and used as slaves for more that eight years. It is an American story of resourcefulness, integrity and courage that demonstrates what Mr. Ross calls  "...the true nature of those who represented our country on the Vietnam battlefield."

Mr. Ross recognized and honored area veterans who have served our country. His presentation, titled In the Presence of Heroes, focused on those who have served our country from World War II to present day. He was warm and engaging and stirred our emotions as he spoke about the men and women who have guarded our freedom.

Mr. Ross ended his presentation with a special recognition of a military unit and members of that unit living in the Ohio and Pennsylvania area.
