08:07 AM ET 07.04 | Inside a month before training camp opens for him in Minnesota, Vikings coach Leslie Frazier has chosen to capitalize on some rare NFL downtime this holiday week. But that [doesn't mean] he's beachside somewhere sipping on a frozen drink and soaking in the sun. Frazier's choice of venue [Tuesday]: Afghanistan. As part of the third annual NFL-USO Coaches Tour, Frazier along with Bill Cowher and Eric Mangini are currently visiting troops in the Persian Gulf. This afternoon, Frazier called the Star Tribune from overseas and provided a snapshot of the impressions the USO Tour has left on him so far. On the positive energy he's felt on the trip ... "So far this has been a tremendous experience."

Really? Mangini and Frazier. I'd rather go on foot patrol across the desert with a bullseye painted on my back.

Unless you've been there, that's a pretty bold statement.
Not much of a fan but it sure beats the lip service about "how much we appreciate the troops".

In 1776, the Declaration of Independence was signed, declaring the United States' independence from Great Britain. To this day our U.S. Armed forces have fought to protect us against all enemies foreign and domestic to ensure we keep our individual freedom and independence from the rest of the world.
If you have the opportunity today (and every day), thank an active member or veteran of the U.S. Armed Forces.
Happy Independence Day FN!
