4th of July by
The Thomas Ranch
The 4th of July is your Independence Day. It is a God Given Freedom for all Americans. We are all so lucky to have been born in this Country, or for some lucky enough to relocate and call the United States of America Home. The 4th of July is the Heart that Pumps our Patriotism thru our veins. It is this that we are proud to stand here and thank each and every Man and Woman who serves in the Armed Forces of America. It doesn’t matter what branch they serve in it just matters that they are serving or have served. Thank You, Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard, Fire Fighters, and Police. Each and every one of you has given us the Freedom of choice. The possibility of us writing how terrible this Country is. But, we all know this isn’t so. This is the Greatest Country on the Face of Plant Earth. We at THE THOMAS RANCH know this and this is why we are dedicating this page to you, the Freedom Fighters of a Modern Age and a Modern War, the War on Terrorism. For those who gave the Ultimate Sacrifice we take a moment to pause and reflex back at their life. They gave the most valuable gift for our Country. We have not forgotten about past Wars, that also shaped our Country, but we want to thank each and every VETERAN in the United States of America.
THANK YOU,
THE THOMAS RANCH

It is the VETERAN, not the preacher,
who has given us freedom of religion.
It is the VETERAN, not the reporter,
who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the VETERAN, not the poet,
who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the VETERAN, not the campus organizer,
who has given us freedom to assemble.
It is the VETERAN, not the lawyer,
who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the VETERAN, not the politician,
who has given us the right to vote.
It is the VETERAN,
who salutes the Flag,
It is the veteran,
who serves under the Flag!
