(National Anthem)
Ladies and gentlemen, at this time we ask that you stand. The
privilege of this competition was made possible by those who have
fought – and continue to fight for – the freedoms we enjoy.
Let us honor and respect their efforts and our country by gentlemen
removing their caps, and everyone standing at attention, placing their
hands over their hearts, as we proudly sing our National Anthem.
