Early July 2021

The troops gathered for the 4th of July holiday and all the traditional activities were on the calendar, including several in which I didn't participate. Independence Day was split in two, on the 3rd and 5th so that there would be no Sabbath breaking by the locals, as the actual day was Sunday.
