In between barbeques and fireworks on Independence Day, travelers might take a few minutes to visit a cemetery containing Revolutionary War dead and give a bit of thanks. Imagine taking on a super power in a place where there were no gunpowder manufacturers—and winning.

For those with the courage to serve, thank you.
