Ronald Reagan actually said...

"Pulaski died fighting in our American Revolution so that we could live as a free and independent Nation."

"It is fitting that Americans honor those individuals who have altered the course of history in this country by exhibiting great moral character and courage."

"Through a concentrated effort our Nation can substantially reduce the human suffering and economic losses from fire."

"I strongly urge each citizen to make a personal commitment to aid in the reduction of this senseless and tragic waste of precious lives, property, and natural resources from fire."
