Happy 4th of July!


A Happy and Safe Independence Day / 4th of July to All.

And let us never forget the significance of this day.  Military.com:
On July 4, 1776, the thirteen colonies claimed their independence from England, an event which eventually led to the formation of the United States.
[.]
In a June 7 session in the Pennsylvania State House (later Independence Hall), Richard Henry Lee of Virginia presented a resolution with the famous words: "Resolved: That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States, that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved."

And to those who served or currently serve in any branch of the U.S. Military, who served to protect our freedoms and who put their lives on the line for our freedoms, this day would not exist if not for you. God Bless you.

Remember those who, for whatever reasons, cannot be with those they love today (and every day).
