Hark! Hear the war-cry sounding,
It is Uncle Sam.
Hark! Hear the bugle calling
To arms ev’ry man.
Fight for your loved ones and country,
That freedom and peace shall reign,
Fight for the great God who made you,
Is the motto of Uncle Sam.
Copyright 1917, by Mabel Beatrice Baker
This iconic figure has been used by uncounted people over the decades to communicate a host of messages -- some positive, some negative. He's been used to sell product and move the masses. But there's no denying that when it comes to the United States brand, good old Uncle Sam is the face many see!
