Independence Day

I'm in love with the show The Unit. It's a show specifically based on the special-forces in the Army. I watch it and feel that it is one of the best Military shows on Television. It has alot of realism to it as well as a few characters that I personally relate to and well, one that I can't help but drool after.

"The effective range of an excuse is zero meters, do it again"

Mac is droolworthy. Played by Max Martini, a tri-citizen of Italy-Canada-USA, he is among the best actors of this lifetime. Mac is an amazing soldier and a trained sniper. I watch all the shows and have even started having dreams where he is there. It's pretty strange, considering I recognize he is fictional, but I don't care. If I have that man protecting me in my dreams, I'll take it.

Other things are more than confusing and slightly overwhelming and too much time in my head makes me want to scream, however, I'm just focusing on the Unit right now.

It's Independence Day, the 4th of July, the day the declaration was signed, declaring our independence from the Tyrany of the British Crown. Thomas Jefferson wrote it 234 years ago, it was signed by over 60 other men who believed in the same universal goal of freedom.


Today, we are fighting two wars, my friends and family have served in damn near every single one... I'm proud of my men and women fighting and will always be proud.

Thank a soldier, airman, marine or sailor for all they do for you.

Love, Leah
