    When America was united, regardless of party lines. My grandfather was on the front lines of WWII, got a bronze star and Purple Heart for his service, and wanted to spend the rest of his life as a family man. He raised three sons, and had many grandchildren and great grandchildren. He passed a decade ago at the age of 89, going out like a bullet; which I knew he always would. Before he was buried in it, my late grandmother let me put on his treasured army jacket because I wished to feel the history in it. I hope with all of my heart he would have been horrified to see what we have become in 2020. Love you, Nunnu, wherever you are.

    Man I miss my grandpa, he fought in the Pacific theater of WW2 and once in a while I'd hear this as a small kid at his house.

      Same for me. He didn't fight, but he was a cargo pilot and had fighter pilots guarding him. He told me about times an enemy fighter plane tried to shoot him down and the nearby fighters soon went for it.

    My grandfather, who was a veteran, passed last year at the ripe old age of 96. I only heard this song once and never knew the origin but now that I know I have an understanding of what he was trying to convey by playing it in my presence as a child.

    This song was made during World War II eh? Well, 4 years after this song, the Axis powers did fall. I first got familiar with this song in a Looney Tunes cartoon titled The Fifth Column Mouse. Done in 1943. Which was the year the Axis powers really lost their peak. I. E. failure to conquer Stalingrad.

    December seventh, ninteen hundred and forty one
    Our land of freedom was defied;
    December eight, nineteen hundred and forty one
    Uncle Sam replied.
    We did it before and we can do it again
    and we will do it again,
    We've got a heck of a job to do
    but you can bet that we'll see it thru
    We did it before and we can do it again
    and we will do it again,
    We're one for all and we're all for one.
    They'll get a lickin' before we're done.
    Millions of voices are ringing,
    Singing as we march along.
    We did it before and we can do it again
    and we will do it again,
    We'll knock them over and then we'll get
    the guy in back of them
    We did it before, we'll do it again.
