1776 not just a date, a way of life. So it says on the t-shirt I'm wearing and I believe that 100 percent. Several of the signers of the Declaration of Independence lost their lives in during the revolution, at least one whom the British told that all he had to do was recant to save the lives of his sons said "no" and he then lost his sons, others lost their fortunes and died impoverished. They gave their all for their cause. Let us not forget them, they gave us what we have today.
All the best,
