I'm proud to be an American and of our history, ideals and promises to all. I love singing the national anthem, parades, bands and revering our military. Our family has a long history of military heroes going back in time to the Revolutionary War times, War of 1812, Civil War, World War I and II. Men and women not afraid to enlist and fight for the liberty and freedom of our nation and other nations.America allows dissent and choice but it was formed One Nation Under God and our motto is in God we Trust. May we never lose this basic freedom and respect for other's choices. Happy Birthday America, land of my birth.
