The United State's first president, George Washington's birthday is today. This is a very celebratory day for the Americans. In fact, the USS Powhatan were celebratory to commemorate their former president. The firing of twenty-one gun salutes were made in the morning followed by the rise of the American flag while a band played the national anthem of the United States in remembrance of Washington. The Americans seem to honor their first president so much to have a celebration at SEA. George Washington must have been such a great leader!
Everyone had a great time, I hope you did too. I didn't hear the gun salutes because of the storm. I agree that the Amerians really do like their first President
ReplyDeleteI agree! I had a great time aboard the Kanrin Maru watching the celebrations.
ReplyDeleteOn Washingon's birthday, i always feel very honored to be an American, especially during the 21 gun salutes.
