I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
These days, people don’t appreciate or know history. That’s why as a courier service Dallas, we are putting the cool back in history. We should know our roots. We should know from whence we came. We should know about our Presidents! And with President’s Day just around the corner, we wanted to represent all delivery companies Dallas in being on our historical game. At Eagle Express, we too are about to be celebrating our own history – our 30th birthday is just around the corner. Just as we celebrate our company, we celebrate our country. Just how will we do that??
