This is part of Patch’s summer Picture of the Week series, where we’ll be asking you for your best pictures on a certain topic each week. We love seeing the pictures you have to share and we're even adding a little incentive. The winning submission will get a Patch prize pack, which includes a very soft Patch Tshirt, a baseball cap and maybe some other Patch stuff, but more importantly, you’ll get bragging rights.
We take photo submissions each week from 4 a.m. Monday through noon Friday. Voting begisn at 4 a.m. Saturday and end at 9 a.m. Monday, so make sure to check back over the weekend to vote for your favorite picture.

The contest is open to photos of people of any color or photos that are not of people. I would encourage you to check on our nominations story published each Monday and if you have a photo you'd like to submit, please do. If you feel you know someone with a great photo, please let them know about it. We'd love to have more entries in each and every contest.

Children are cute when they dress up and decorate their bikes (with obvious help of their talented parents, and dogs look stately next to our Flag, as do groups of flags and and a statue or stuffed eagle. American citizens coming out for an event are also patriotic. However, it seems to me that the true patriotic picture is the man in the uniform that was out there being shot at and having the duty to kill other human beings, caught in a moment of peace during a time of war.
