# Nation To Defend

Explains why throughout the history of the United States men have been willing to fight when the nation's ideals of freedom were threatened. Shows how devotion to the best interests of our country, such as justice, fair play and an equal chance for all, links young men with men of high purposes who have always served their nation as the situation demanded. Draws from the examples of Nathan Hale, George Washington and others to demonstrate that people need to make sacrifices to ensure their freedom and preserve their way of life. Encourages young people to think of serving in the military as the best way they can defend the country's democratic ideals of free speech, religious choice and pursuit of happiness against tyranny.
