Greetings on this Independence Day. When you see the fireworks and hear the booms, please imagine as well the sounds of jets and helicopters, and occasional screams, and you'll have at least some idea of how it sounds here at times. Please read "Bless the Beasts and Children." A warning to those with children: some of the photographs in this dispatch may be too graphic for young ones.
God Bless America.
