Freedom is written in the very soul of mankind, and the bedrock of our Nation’s existence.

Most of my family is military, having someone in every branch pretty much my whole life. Much of the time someone was on a ‘work trip’ doing heroic things we’ll never really know about. I grew up near an AFB, and loved jet noise from the start. If you get a bit teary-eyed when they play the Anthem, if you can’t quite hold back tears when TAPS is played, if you’ve got a conviction for a free land and a free future for the next generation - welcome to the American Soul.
