Excerpt from The Link, Vol. 24: A Protestant Magazine for Armed Forces Personnel; July 1966

I am big. I sprawl from the Atlantic to the Pacific my arms reach out to embrace Alaska and Hawaii 3 million square miles throbbing with industry. I am more than 5 million farms. I am forest, field, mountain, and desert. I am quiet Villages - and cities that never sleep.

You can look at me and see Ben Franklin walking down the streets of Philadelphia with his bread loaf under his arm. You can see Betsy Ross with her needle. You can see the lights of Christmas, and hear the strains of Auld Lang Syne as the calendar turns.

Trailing mists of a snowstorm swirl over Yosemite Valley in National Park giving a vision of true loveliness.

I am Babe Ruth and the World Series. I am schools and colleges, and churches where my people worship God as they think best. I am a ballot dropped in a box, the roar Of a crowd in a stadium and the voice of a choir in a cathedral. I am an editorial in a newspaper and a letter to a congressman.
