Happy 4th of July to my daughter, Emma, and all of the men and women who have served to protect our freedoms! Emma will be a part of the 50th graduating class of women at the United States Air Force Academy when she graduates in 2030. Nathanael Green, George Washington’s confidant and fellow general, is a direct descendant of my family. From Nathanael Green to Emma, my family has had a service member serve in every major conflict in our country’s history. Thank you, Emma, for being strong and for your willingness to serve! I love you and miss you.
