Salute to the Union

 

At 12:00 each Independence Day the Salute to the Union is fired on all Army posts that have an artillery battery.  The ceremony consists of the reading of the list of states and the date they entered the Union, and the firing of a cannon for each of them.

Happy Independence Day!
