~FReeper Canteen~Veteran's Day~ Nov. 11, 2004~
November 11, 2004 | bentfeather and The Canteen Crew

Posted on 11/10/2004 8:03:44 PM PST by 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

It's sad to admit it...but I can't bathe in an empty house. Every noise I hear makes me think someone else is in the house! I'm very freaked out like that!

When my kids were missing, I had to ask a friend to come over and just sit in the front room so I could take a shower!

Hmmm
When Mr.B was gone for two weeks this past summer...
and I had to take out my hearing aides to shower/bathe..
It freaked me out too...at first...
Lets's just say..I'm a Second Amendment Sister...
Draw your bath, and lock and load!
Bubble and blast?
LOL

Worst thing I ever did, I think, was neglecting to change the channel when they showed the shower scene on a commercial for the movie (you know which movie I'm talking about!!). I will never be the same again!

I don't have any guns right now. I am afraid to own one till I have a home where I can keep them better controlled.

Thank you for lovely & important thread Bentfeather. Your graphics & words are meaningful

I am in the process of putting together a personal Veteran's Day tribute which I will email to my "list". (some of the materials will come from here & other FR sources. I have many of you on the list & you will get it. IF YOU WOULD LIKE IT, please Freepmail me your email addy. If you think I may not have your addy, resend. I had some computer problems this past year & have had to redo my book. Of course you are free to forward it.

I just wanted to let everyone know how grateful I am for all the support you folks provided to me and my company while we were in Afghanistan. We arrived back in the US a few days ago and are outprocessing now. We are all very anxious to get home.

Thank you all for remembering those who served and are currently serving. The support means very much.

Cheers, CC :)
