The Coast Guard Academy Glee Club sings the National Anthem (NAILS IT!) at the February 3, 2012 Fort Worth, Texas Stock Show and Rodeo.

That was beautiful.
And the announcer's commentary about the cadets after the anthem was nice to hear.
Thanks for posting.

I think its nice for applicants to know that there are a lot of interesting extra curriculars at the academy and a great deal of travel, including abroad.

Agreed. As I watched it I actually thought, "Wish DS could sing!"

There are some nice opportunities. The USMA Glee Club has had some amazing gigs, including the Mel Gibson movie "We Were Soldiers" and the internationally televised Academy of Country Music Awards where they performed with Trace Adkins.

I saw the Trace Atkins one, pretty sure I had a little moisture collect just below my eyes.
