Fourth of July..

RE: Fourth of July..
LOL< we get homesick, so we manufacture a little kitsch in our general vicinity? Some of us are just as amused at our "americanness" as others - not that it stops us.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I actually went to the opposite extreme when I first mentioned the holiday in conversation with a Londoner, over-explaining, assuming he hadn't heard of the 4th of July before. My logic was that I'm not familiar with the national holidays of foreigners and would need a similar elaboration from them. Kind of like how Boxing Day needed to be explained to me.
