Do you think the National Anthem should be played before movies in The Villages? We members of this community are certainly proud of our patriotism and we have an awful lot of veterans. I don't think many people would complain. After all, folks seem to be happy to hear the Anthem before sporting events.

So what do you think?
We should lead by example. It would be Huugghh! What a great idea.
