July 4th, 1986, Ronald Reagan at the height of his popularity with the American people.
February 17, 1990 www.amazon.com Congress authorized the creation of the Ronald Reagan Boyhood Home National Historic Site in Dixon, Illinois in 2002, pending federal purchase of the property. On May 16 of that year, Nancy Reagan accepted the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest civilian honor bestowed by Congress, on behalf of the president and herself. Following Reagan's death, the United States Postal Service issued a President Ronald Reagan commemorative postage stamp in 2005. Later in the year, CNN, along with the editors of Time magazine, named him the "most fascinating person" of the network's first 25 years; Time listed Reagan one of the 100 Most Important People of the 20th century as well. The Discovery Channel asked its viewers to vote for The Greatest American in an unscientific poll on June 26, 2005; Reagan received the honorary title. In 2006, Reagan was inducted into the California Hall of Fame, located at The California Museum for History, Women, and the Arts. Every year since 2002, California Governors have proclaimed February 6 "Ronald Reagan Day" in the state of California in honor of their most famous predecessor. In 2007, Polish President Lech Kaczyński posthumously awarded Reagan the highest Polish distinction, the Order of the White Eagle, saying that Reagan inspired the Polish people to work for change and helped to unseat the repressive communist regime; Kaczyński said it "would not have been possible if it was not for the tough-mindedness ...
February 16, 1990 www.amazon.com Midway into his second term, Reagan declared more militant policies in the War on Drugs. He said that "drugs were menacing our society" and promised to fight for drug-free schools and workplaces, expanded drug treatment, stronger law enforcement and drug interdiction efforts, and greater public awareness. In 1986, Reagan signed a drug enforcement bill that budgeted $1.7 billion dollars to fund the War on Drugs and specified a mandatory minimum penalty for drug offenses. The bill was criticized for promoting significant racial disparities in the prison population and critics also charged that the policies did little to reduce the availability of drugs on the street, while resulting in a great financial burden for America. Defenders of the effort point to success in reducing rates of adolescent drug use. First Lady Nancy Reagan made the War on Drugs her main priority by founding the "Just Say No" drug awareness campaign, which aimed to discourage children and teenagers from engaging in recreational drug use by offering various ways of saying "no". Mrs. Reagan traveled to 65 cities in 33 states, raising awareness about the dangers of drugs and alcohol. Relations between Libya and the US under President Reagan were continually contentious, beginning with the Gulf of Sidra incident in 1981. These tensions were later revived in early April 1986, when a bomb exploded in a Berlin discothèque, resulting in the injuries of 63 American military ...

Below is a link to a video my husband Scott made as a tribute to our freedom, and to those who keep us safe. For those of you who remember and loved the audio CD he made shortly after Sept. 11, 2001, you will really be moved by this tribute now in video form. May we never forget those who died or whose lives were forever changed on Sept.11 - And may we always pay homage and show gratitude to all the brave men and women, past and present,(including our son Corey!) who have worked or fought to preserve our liberty so we can enjoy the freedom to live the wonderful lives we all enjoy! Happy Memorial Day! Fly your flag! Joyce Conway

In conjunction with the rededication of the Statue of Libery, following a major renovation, a Naval review was held in New York Harbor. Navies of many foreign nations sent ships to represent them. On the morning of July 4th BB-61 USS IOWA, with President Ronald Reagan aboard, sailed down the Hudson River past Lady Liberty. Another ship anchored in the river fired one of her guns in salute. The first ship seen in the Video is the LCC/JCC 20 USS MOUNT WHITNEY, a Joint Command Ship. Also shown is German Navy Training Cruiser A59 DEUTSCHLAND I am in Battery Park. As IOWA comes into view, passing the FDNY Fireboat station, note the small vessel in the forground. That is the USS SEQUOIA, at one time the Presidential Yacht. Jimmy Carter auctioned her off in the Seventies. Just one of a series of "brilliant" moves that the imbecile made while in office. Also, note the platform atop IOWA's No. 1 gun turret. That is where the President and other dignitaries were. VHS Master Recording
