We on this continent should never forget that men first crossed the Atlantic not to find soil for their ploughs but to secure liberty for their souls.
~~~~~Robert J. McCrackenBecause there were men who were willing to procure for this country our freedoms from oppression, and taxation without representation, we are blessed with the freedoms that many take for granted. It was a arduous fight, but liberty was won. 234 years later, we are still fighting the good fight to keep and preserve those very freedoms...from within and throughout the world. Many Nations that we once opposed, are now our greatest allies.
Please read the posts by a few friends who have a much better ability to articulate their feelings about "America" than my feeble attempts.
A new launch by some greats in the blog world...Big Peace. Be sure to read the post by a certain Soldiers' Angel in Germany. Take tissues with you when you go.
Wishes for a "Happy Independence Day" from a staunch supporter of 'Our Guys'; Brat.
A gentle reminder from someone who is deployed far away to fly those flags sent from afar.
Dr.Joe has two 'Pictures of the Day' that you need to see.
The Kitchen Dispatch has a special guest who shares his thoughts on the 234th Birthday of America; Andrew Lubin.
Now, I'm off to share the day with family who will travel a few miles south to celebrate our 4th of July by having a family reunion.
If you will, please take a moment or three to say a prayer of thanks and protection to all 'Our Guys' who are standing watch in oh so many other countries.
And so it goes......

What is amazing is that since WWII the American Armed Forces keep winning battle after battle on the battlefield, but we loose the war due to Washington and people who mostly don’t ever know how to load a weapon (gun the them.) God bless our troops and America.
