Ambassador Earl Anthony Wayne hosted on July 4th a reception at his residence to commemorate the 231st anniversary of the U.S. Independence. Hundreds of Argentine personalities participated in the celebration, including government officials, representatives from the civil society, academics, etc. The United States celebrates its Independence Day on July 4, a day of patriotic celebration and family events throughout the country. In the words of Founding Father John Adams, the holiday would be “the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance, …. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from this time forward forever more.”
