In the long history of the world, (reminds me of old things, been around for a long time, something that has expressed history to generation, radio springs to mind - slow, stuttered, distorted)
Only a few generations (certain people, items/objects only a certain generation would know, b&w TV, inventions of the 60's: audio cassette, handheld calculator. Objects that aren't common anymore: telephones with the dial - small amount of objects, quick, short clips)
Have been granted the role (given, honoured, something with a specific purpose - could be anything, matches, food, plants - rolling footage (bad tv))
Of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. (freedom, space: sky, clouds, sea, land - wide open spaces), (danger, scary: loud, fast paced, flashing: flame, the result of danger: grave yard - mysterious, dark, flashes of light)
I do not shrink from this responsibility - I welcome it. ((shrink, small, tight, stretchy: flower (new to old - stop motion, fast, timed shots), latex gloves (responsibility to protect - stretchy, strong.) welcome, strong, responsible: structure: bridge, pier - close ups, main components, rust).
I do not believe (edit changes on each word) that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. (generation as above?)
The energy, (speed up clip, maybe of the bike, latex gloves(less literal)) the faith (changes, believe that it will change?) the devotion (love/hate, loyalty, flag) which we (together, solely) bring to this endeavour (struggle) will light our country and all who serve it -- and the glow from that fire can truly light the world.

And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country.
