Bring tissue, the Ukrainian Military Orchestra performs the US national anthem

This brought tears to my eyes. As an expat living in Hungary, you can often be jaded by politics and the reality of seeing your country literally through others’ eyes.  But to see this performance through the eyes of the Ukrainians and what our assitance to them has meant literally just makes me stop and weep. Happy Fourth of July, America. And thank you, Ukraine, for standing up for what we aspire to be.
