An off-duty mishap compromises the mission just as effectively as an adversary. Treat this July 4th like a tactical mission: assess risk, watch your wingman, and stay in the fight.

Yesterday, our joint team of military bands and ceremonial guard units from each branch of the Armed Forces gave audiences a huge patriotic boost throughout the rainy day as part of Military and Veterans Appreciation Day at the Great American State Fair on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. Despite the weather, our Soldiers, Marines, Sailors, Airmen, Guardians and Coast Guardsmen delivered rocking music and ceremonial demonstrations to honor all who serve and those who have served in the U.S. military.

What a way to kick off the week as we head into our nation's 250th birthday! How do you plan to celebrate July 4th?
