Fire of Liberty
The US Army turned 230 years old yesterday, throughout its meager beginnings in 1775 under Washington (Took them from rag-tag to soldiers on par with professional British soldiers), the men fighting in the deserts of Northern Africa or the forests of Europe during WWII or today's high tech war-fighters, the US Army has demonstrated the strength and principles of our society. In the same manner that this nation is formed by and for the people, the US Army has always been an institution made of citizen soldiers who put 110% of their effort in fighting wars to preserve the fact. So when you read this, just take some time to think about where we would be today if we didn't have the 101st Airborne, 82nd Airborne, Big Red 1 or the 4th Infantry risking their lives to defend our fine republic. So even if it's belated, Happy Birthday to the US Army.
