The Legend
The textile business gave birth to a brand that is an American Tradition the past 150 years. Americans dared to dream of a resolve to conflict with the ending of a war that divided the American fabric for generations to come.
The Diamond Family gave to the rebirth of a nation, the growth of industry, the great depression, electricity, automobiles, radio, television, flight, and the introduction of telephones.
We faced the Antebellum Period and Civil War with a resolute to be both honest and brave. We were guided through Reconstruction and the Gilded Age of a Gold Rush, General Custer's defeat, the Depression of 1884, Wounded Knee, and the completion of the Great Northern Railroad. We faced strife with the assassination of President McKinley, Would War I, Selective Service Act, and the 18th Amendment outlawing the buying, selling, and transporting of liquor.
The 1920's granted women's suffrage, Lindbergh's solo flight across the Atlantic, Babe Ruth's 60 home runs, and the stock market crash. We faced the challenges of the Great Depression and World War II, Franklin Roosevelt was elected president, prohibition repealed, a bank holiday proclaimed, the Securities and Exchange Commission established. Huey Long was assassinated, Germany invades Poland, World War II begins, and Japan attacks Pearl Harbor. Allies invade Italy, Roosevelt elected for fourth term, Truman succeeds Roosevelt, Hitler commits suicide, Germany surrenders, and U.S. drops atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan surrenders, and the United Nations are founded.
We welcome Postwar America with Jackie Robinson breaking the color line in baseball, Korean War, Sputnik, Castro takes over Cuba, J.F. Kennedy elected president, Berlin Wall built, and the first black student (James Meredith) attends University of Mississippi.
The 1960's continued with Birmingham desegregation crusade, Civil Rights march on Washington, President Kennedy assassinated in Dallas, American combat troops sent to Vietnam, Neil Armstrong walks on the moon, and the Woodstock Music Festival.
Contemporary America is resolute to uphold righteousness by deed and by work accepting the resignations of Vice-President Agnew and President Nixon, the fall of South Vietnam, unemployment surpasses 10%, Iraq invades Kuwait, Operation Desert Strom, and President Clinton announces first balanced budget in 20 years.
The 21st century began with an early test of true national greatness. We faced September 11th and the world by example. The test of our moral and physical limitations, we greeted challenges head on and demonstrated by work and actions that we would face American's enemies with integrity and bravery around the clock around the world.
We realized the dream electing Barack Hussein Obama the first African-American president of the United States of America.
The legend of Tommy Diamond will continue for decades to come as the fabric of American Dreams continues to be woven together in the true "American Tradition."
