We all love the country we call home, but nobody loves their country more than these TV characters.
It's easy to picture them grilling burgers and dogs in the backyard with fireworks shooting off in the distance, and a red, white, and blue backdrop.
Maybe they're wearing a uniform, and maybe they're not. In either case, they are making America a safer and better place to be by doing what they do.
