truth conquers all things Lauren Marlowe, I borrowed your pancakes.

On this Day in History

1803 The U.S. Senate ratified the Louisiana Purchase, the greatest real estate deal in history. Thomas Jefferson brokered the deal with France that added 2 million square miles to the U.S. for a mere $15 million.

1947 The House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) held its first hearings to investigate Communist influence in Hollywood; contrary to popular belief, SENATOR Joe McCarthy did not chair these hearings

We will begin "Operation Season's Greetings" to help bring the Holiday Festivities to our Troops. Stay tuned for more information! Thanks to Auntie Fawnn for the beautiful graphic!

 

*IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT*

Beginning Friday, October 29th, we will begin running a 3 day Halloween thread. Mixed into the Halloween Thread will be music, entertainment, silliness, and everything that you expect from the Canteen Crew.

Also, the Sunday Guest Chaplain Thread will run as a separate thread on October 31st. With the election only two days away, we want to keep the Chaplain doors open for everyone!!

 

*IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR NOVEMBER 1st-3rd*

From November 1st through the 3rd, we will run an ongoing Canteen Favorites Thread. This is being done because of the expected high traffic that FR will be experiencing the day before, during, and after the election.

And we want the FR Canteen to be a safe haven for those that want to escape the political events of those days. So? If you need to take a breather, come visit the Troops and Canteen right here!!

Thank you!
