Tomorrow is our nation's birthday, friend, and I want to wish you a happy Independence Day!
For me, the 4th is a day I reflect on our great nation and the vision our forefathers had when they changed the course of history forever by drafting the Declaration of Independence.
As a Marine who enlisted at the height of the Gulf War, I use the 4th of July to honor all the brave men and women who put on the uniform and fought to keep us free. My thoughts are never far from those heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation, and the families they left behind.
Of course, it's also a day to spend with loved ones grilling or catching a parade and fireworks as we cherish what it means to be American.
