July 4th 2014 Qalat Afghanistan. This picture is so much more then just what you see. This picture was taken as a difficult observation to the division in political, ethical and morale issues that plague our country. Yet each one of those issues is resting directly on the backs of our service men and women. They are enduring conditions often times worse then the prisoners in our hardest prisons because they believe in our country and our way of life. They leave the the national division at home and fight for our country. This picture represents the selflessness that the endure for us. This picture was taken in a remote part of Aghanistan during the peak of the fighting season when it demanded the most from the men. may every day be a happy Independence Day for us and may the selflessness of our men and women serving always be recognized.

Dude this is smoking, Amazing capture! Being a Vet myself this was touching, unfortunately vets who have fought and died for our great country are rather easily forgotten from those whom we have fought for. God Bless our American soldiers, airmen and marines and naval personnel God Bless Us All!
