As has become a tradition with us, we're saluting Memorial Day Monday with
"Beneath the Southern Cross," part of the original Richard
Rodgers'
soundtrack for the NBC "Victory at Sea" World War II documentary series
from the early 1950s. The title refers to the constellation Crux (or
Southern Cross) easily visible in the South Pacific. The RCA Victor
Orchestra led by Robert Russell
Bennett performs the song, also familiarly known as "No Other Love Have
I."
Memorial Day in America is a day we remember those service men and women
in all wars who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. We
gratefully honor their service.
