Navy veteran Max Truxillo said that what makes him a proud American is being reminded how special the United States is whenever he traveled around the world.
“The more places I’ve seen, the more I appreciate our country and the freedoms we have,” he said. “There’s so much to be thankful for in our country. I wouldn’t live anywhere else.”
