~FReeper Canteen~Veteran's Day~ Nov. 11, 2004~

November 11, 2004 | bentfeather and The Canteen Crew

[Soaring Feather]

For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday
Thank the Veterans who served in the United States Armed Forces.

Veteran's Day

National Anthem

Grand Old Flag

On this day we Thank You Vets

for standing on the side of right.

For standing in the muddy trench

before the enemy of freedom.

For marching on the side of justice

to keep a nation free,

For standing in the line of fire,

to hold off oppression 

to hold a child not yours,

to build a school for those who have none

and to give a smile to anyone who needs one.

We Thank You Vets, for all you've done.

Wake Up Call

Evening Minor. Tell all your relatives I said THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.

[Soaring Feather]

WOO HOO Cowboy!! Here we go!! LOL

[Diva Betsy Ross]

COLONEL! I am fine.. just hanging out!

[Colonel_Flagg]

Looks like you are not only hanging out, but hanging ten. I'm jealous. :)

[Soaring Feather]

Hiya Lisa, Thank You, for stopping round to honor our vets.

[Laurita]

LOL! A favorite saying in the Army: "False motivation is better than no motivation at all." It counts
for "woo-hoos" too. A false woo-hoo is better than no woo-hoo at all!

[TexasCowboy]

And this old song kinda reminds me of our troops in Fallujah tonight:

Marty Robbins - BIG IRON

And this song begs for the picture of the Marlboro warrior!

[Laurita]

Just popped in for a second. I've got a friend coming down from Cp Henry and I've got to get this place cleaned up!

[laurenmarlowe]

And everything they say is all true!

[Fawnn]

tomkow6!!! #500!!!

[Soaring Feather]

Oh good song!! Love Marty Robbins.

[Kathy in Alaska]

First Scouting meeting and banana splits, and Veterans too. You've had quite the day! I just got home after stopping for a haircut.

[Soaring Feather]

Have a wonderful time Laurita!!!

[TexasCowboy]

And possibly the best song George Strait ever sang:

George Stait - AMARILLO BY MORNING

[Fawnn]

Next time opt for the social life that doesn't require that you're the one who has to do the cleaning! ;)

[freedumb2003]

That's not fair!

I am a guy and my wife isn't exactly in the service (but I love her deeply and without reservation).

But what I do is when I am in DFW (or any other airport that has an Admiral's Club) no one in uniform pays for their own drinks as long as I am in the club.

In case they don't know, please pass the word along that American Airlines Admiral's Clubs allow mmbers of the Armed Forces in for free with ID. And like I said, if I'm there they don't even have to pay for their drinks!

[Soaring Feather]

Another winner!! WOO HOO!!

[laurenmarlowe]

Thank you TC, that's a GREAT song!

[Soaring Feather]

WOO HOO Colonel, you still here??

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, Lisa.

RIP Billy, and thanks for your service to America.
