The rendition by the West Point and U.S. Naval Academy glee clubs was a hit on social media, with many Twitter users saying the performance gave them "goosebumps" and "chills."
Other commenters took the opportunity to call out the NFL players who have been kneeling in protest of racial inequality as the anthem is performed before games.
Hey @NFL if you want to show patriotism to the country how about requesting the Army-Navy glee clubs to come sing the National Anthem

I hope the NFL brass and owners are looking at this. This is what America is all about.
