The land of the Free

Freedom is such a quirky concept. You have a country that lauds itself for being the epitome of freedom, and you have an elite army defending the country's freedom. You'd know that the army is very disciplined and you'd know that in order for the soldiers to be elite, they'd have sacrificed their own freedom and free will. This kinda shows that freedom could not exist on its own. It could not exist without rules, order and discipline.
