Saturday Snapshot: Have I Told You Lately How Much I Love My Hometown?

By Anovelsource @thenovellife
In my small town we not only have one of the top military schools in the country, but we also host the Camp Merrill Army Ranger School - one of three ranger schools in the country! Each year the Ranger Camp throws open the gates and gives us civilians a chance to see military life in action.  My children and I have been going for a few years and love the experience, the show, the military. How proud I am to live in a country with men and women who sacrifice so much for my protection and freedom.  It's pretty amazing when you really think about it!
The shots below were taken during a military show, giving us a taste of what these great men and women do while out in the field. I hope you enjoy and feel the same sense of pride I did when I was at the Open House!
