CRITIC HUGH HARRINGTON CHECKS IN

At the crack of dawn this morning I saw your notice that AFL was going to Cannes.  My first reaction was GREAT!

My second reaction, 10 seconds later, may be more significant than the first. What almost instantly occurred to me is that my father, accompanied by the American Army, went through Cannes in the summer of 1944. The purpose was to liberate France. How appropriate that the story of Captain Felder, and the thousands of
other freedom loving Americans during our great Revolution, is going to France.

I understand that during WWI when American General John Pershing visited LaFayette's tomb he said, "LaFayette, we are here," in tribute to the Frenchman who aided our Revolution. My father was
interested in American history his whole life - I am certain that when he was in France in 1944 he thought of LaFayette and our liberation of France and the American Revolution.
Well, Captain Felder representing not just American freedom but the model for freedom worldwide, is going to France....to Cannes. I like to think that as Captain Felder shows the flag in France he'll be there for all of us.

Good luck....and let 'em know that Freedom still lives in America. (at least for awhile yet).
