We take a minute today and say "happy birthday to the USA".
We loved this story from 2009: Why would a 61-year-old civilian surgeon volunteer for Iraq?
It turns out that Dr. Bill Krissoff lost a son in Iraq:
"Marine First Lt. Nathan Krissoff, was killed in Al Anbar Province in December 2006.
A Williams College grad, athlete and musician, he'd left for Iraq on the fifth anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
He was 25."
So Dr. Krissoff, at age 61, volunteered and went to Iraq.
It's a great story and it should be shared with everyone.
Like many of you, we plan to watch fireworks and just enjoy a nice day.
We will also remember the Krissoff family and their commitment to the country that they love so much!
