It was the French who came to our aid At Yorktown and helped secure the freedom we now enjoy. It has indeed been a long friendship. Happy Fourth!

Thank you All, Friends. It is an honor to be an American.
I sometimes wish that some who received it as a birthright would realize, and appreciate, more the incredible blessing that it represents...

Happy soon to be Bastille day to our French AH members. AH is certainly a melting pot of hunters from many different nations and backgrounds. Most of us have different celebrations for a “national day” or “ Independence Day” for each of our countries. Happy 4th to my fellow Americans and happy national/independence day to all our international members whenever you may celebrate it

"America has joined forces with the Allied Powers, and what we have of blood and treasure are yours. Therefore it is that with loving pride we drape the colors in tribute of respect to this citizen of your great republic. And here and now, in the presence of the illustrious dead, we pledge our hearts and our honor in carrying this war to a successful issue. Lafayette, we are here."

~~ Lieutenant Colonel Charles E. Stanton, Paris, July 4 1917

Seems today too many take for granted the sacrifices our ancestors suffered to give them what they have.

The key word in your reply is sacrifice. When the government hands out money like they are doing people get the wrong idea and want to keep it coming instead of working hard like most of our ancestors did when they first came to this great country.
