Great rendition of "God Bless America" by Marine Sgt. Dan Clark (ret.) at MLB WS. Hint of Traditional Irish folk & great phrasing.

God bless Sgt. Clark!
Update:
A bit of controversy has developed, because now it seems that Dan Clark is not retired from the Marine Corps. Clark did serve in the Marines, but he retired as a sergeant from the Massachusetts State Police. The Marines had given him permission to wear the dress blues, however. The full story here.
