The National Anthem is an intensely meaningful piece of music for Americans who love their country – especially members of the military.
This was evident in Rio, when olympian and U.S. Army Reserve 2nd LT Sam Kendricks was running toward an attempt at a pole vault.
When Kendricks heard The Star-Spangled Banner begin to blast throughout the stadium, he immediately halted from a full sprint in order to stand at attention.
