Story behind the song
Having recently came across Sgt. James Daniel Faulkner's Tribute memorial page, I was compelled to read & "meet" this soldier..."America's son" ... Clarksville, Indiana's ... "Hometown Hero". I immediately noticed, he tragically died, the same day...that, my son SPC David Dale, was sworn into the army, Sept. 8, 2004. Heartbroken for his family, I wrote & expressed my condolences...and, appreciation to Daniel, for his service and committment to serve our great nation. Then, a couple of weeks later, I was overcome with emotions...all the thoughts & feelings I'd felt when reading letters from his family & friends...came pouring out into song, for this, "America's son", "Her Hometown Hero" - (Daniel's Song)
