This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska.

On July 4, the United States celebrates its independence from Britain with displays of fireworks, barbeques, shopping — and for an estimated 70 million citizens this year, travel. The United States' celebration is held on the anniversary of the Second Continental Congress' adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776.
