Sheppard Air Force Base, Texas, opens its gates to the public in celebration of Independence Day, July 4, 2017.
Thousands of Texomans filled the base to enjoy Freedom Fest; a free event which featured three live bands, aircraft displays, food trucks galore, and an extravagant firework display to cap off the evening. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Kyle E. Gese). Original public domain image from Flickr
