Happy 233rd Birthday U. S. Army

Two hundred and thirty-three years ago, the United States Army was established to defend our Nation. From the Revolutionary War to the Global War on Terror, our Soldiers remain Army Strong with a deep commitment to our core values and beliefs. This 233rd birthday commemorates America’s Army – Soldiers, Families and Civilians – who are achieving a level of excellence that is truly Army Strong both here and abroad. Their willingness to sacrifice to build a better future for others and to preserve our way of life is without a doubt, the Strength of our Nation. -From the Army Birthday site http://www.army.mil/birthday/233/

Since June 14, 1775, the magnificent Soldiers, Families and Civilians of America's Army have sacrificed personal comfort and safety so that others can live in freedom. Our sacrifices have preserved our way of life, built a better future for others, and led our nation to victory over our enemies. -From the Army Leadership http://downloads.army.mil/docs/2008armybdaymessage.pdf
