Happy Birthday, United States Army

Today, the United States Army celebrates its 233rd birthday. That's right - as I like to remind people, our Army was born before the nation itself and needed to be in order for our nation to exist.

Soldiers generally don't celebrate the Army's birthday like the Marines celebrate theirs, but we do tip a nod to it.

In honor of the occasion, here's a gratuitous picture of me as a (young) U.S. Army soldier:
