The 4^th of July is the biggest date in the history of our country. It is the day we became a FREE, new nation. It is a date that we as Americans should hold sacred because it is the date when we actually became Americans. While we celebrate this significant event and date lets also remember those that fought so hard and not only opened the door for this to happen but smashed down. Let us remember those who have and continue to serve now to protect this country and its ideals.

On the 4^th we celebrate the birth of our nation but lets also remember those who helped make it happen and those who help protect it.
