This makes me proud of Nellis AFB because I was at another base for a 4th of July and there were not any activities posted for members to see or participate in. Here is the link for the flyer about Freedom Fest at Nellis Airforce Base, it is for DOD I.D. card holders, if you don't know what that is it's not for you. http://www.nellisforcesupport.com/Document/June/freedom%20fest%202010.pdf

This are all the current celebrations that I am aware of. Watch for more or let me know about some. If I remember correctly there might be some free food coming up in July, but I could remember wrong. There are some more Free events coming up after this great weekend, but I'll post those later.
