Subject: God Bless America

One day after terrorists used commercial airplanes to destroy the World Trade Center Towers and attack the Pentagon, firefighters take a moment to post the flag into the scarred stone as inspiration for fellow rescue workers searching through the debris Sept. 12. White House photo by Paul Morse. Dear Mr. President,

I just heard your speech tonight, and frankly, I have never heard a more heart rendering speech from any President in my entire life. My family is entirely behind you, and America.

I finally decided on how to use my tax rebate, I donated it the firemen of NYC.

My family served in the Revolutionary War, in the Civil War, in World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War.

I am proud to be an American, and I am proud that your are my President. God Bless You Sir, and God Bless America.

Sincerely,
Gary
