the battle hymn of the republic

:

As a retired NYC firefighter, I had spent a good amount of time at ground zero to help with the recovery effort. unfortunately, my entire company was lost that horrible day. I really don't care what songs are played during your
9/11 broadcast, But it will please me as well as the families of victims to
hear the song that rallied our country
through it's darkest hours of the
Civil War, played at the end. thank you
