Hey SOFREP readers, the 4th of July is fast approaching and we’d like to hear what this holiday means to you. What do you remember and cherish most about our Independence Day?

Do you pause to think of our Founding Fathers and our great nation’s birthday? Do you think of President Lincoln and the turmoil of the Civil War? Do you think of the 20th century and the rise of the United States as a world leader?

Share your story with us so we can share it with the SOFREP community. Our goal is to document the SOFREP community’s take for all of our military holidays, to let YOU tell the story.
