Without Them

We might not even have an Independence Day to celebrate!

Without the brave men and women of the Army, battles being fought abroad might be fought on our own soil.

Without the months that sailors in the Navy spend away from their homes and families defending the seas and supporting the other branches we might not celebrate our freedom.

Without the bravery, dedication and intensity of the U. S. Marines, we might live under the evil influence of foreign masters.

Without the fine men and women of the U. S. Air Force watching and defending the skies of the Earth, we might face threats from over the horizon.

Thanks to the Coast Guard, our coasts and waterways are protected from incursions by evil forces seen worldwide.

God bless all the men and women in the Armed Forces! They prove continuously that these colors don’t run!
