On Wednesday, we celebrate the 236th
anniversary of our nation's Declaration of Independence. An extraordinary
confluence of events led our forbearers to tell the most powerful king on earth
that we were, and of right ought to be, free and independent states. They then
called on our militia and our newly formed Army, Navy and Marine Corps - who,
under the leadership of George Washington, backed up our declaration and established
our republic. What a gift. What a legacy. What a heritage.
We are the National Guard - we were
there in 1776 and we remain today - always ready and always there. May God
continue to bless our nation and the people we are privileged to serve.
Sincerely,
Donald P. Dunbar
Major General
Wisconsin National Guard
The Adjutant General
