behind the cross are the Marines raising the flag at Iwo Jima, engulfing
the entire painting is the American Eagle with the claw coming from the
fireman representing America's resolve. The towers are ghosted over the
skyline of New York so that we never forget. |

| The title reads "Freedom
Still Stands", and the quote is by F.D.R. after the attack at Pearl
Harbor on December 7th, 1941: |
| |
| "We too, born to freedom
and believing in freedom are willing to fight to maintain freedom. We
and all others who believe as deeply as we do would rather die on our
feet than live on our knees." |
