Great!
I was proud to have a son represent our country @ the opening ceremony for Yankees vs. Twins. However, was very disappointed the media did not give us parents the ability to be spectators of such a proud moment…the earlier game running over caused it to be cut out of the segment for tv. If possible, I would so love to see the West Point Glee Club performance. I’m from the east coast, however currently live out west. It broke my heart not to be able to share one of my son’s proudest moments, can you help us regain it?
Thank you,

@Amy. I couldn’t agree more! So disrespectful not to show the National Anthem. Missed my niece’s boyfriend singing. Trying to find it on the web somewhere — no luck so far.
John, sorry to share that misfortune w/u. This event was probably a once in a lifetime moment. Hopefully there will be someone to share the info w/us and it will be righted. I know that the answer is out there, hoping to find a link myself. I can tell you, when found I will share it.

As everyone else, I am extremely disappointed to not have witnessed my niece singing the national anthem. She is a freshman at WestPoint, in the Glee Club, and this was her first national exposure to sing.
Checking to see if the Yankees for someone else captured it.
