TV Worldwide in cooperation with the National Park Service, will again produce a free live simulcast via satellite and the web of the Washington, D.C., National Capital 4th of July Fireworks Celebration for the benefit of American military personnel and their families stationed overseas. This year the webcast will salute veterans of the U.S. Merchant Marine, with support from “Tell America,” an Internet TV Campaign highlighting the importance of the U.S. flag merchant fleet in peace and war.

The webcast will be produced from the Netherlands Carillon area across the Potomac River in Arlington, VA, allowing for a spectacular view of the US Capitol, the Washington Monument, and the Lincoln Memorial.
