In the United States, NBC opened their coverage of the state funeral of Churchill with a similar narration before Chet Huntley, David Brinkley, and Merrill Mueller began presenting the coverage from London. Huntley said at the beginning, "Good morning everyone. This is the day that had to come and has come. We begin it now."
