Today, December 5, 2004, Bluesagewoman was honored by the Military Retired Officers Association Chapter in Central Missouri. The Retired Officers, Captains, Colonels and Majors, recognized Bluesage at a formal dinner for her civilian support of serving military officers and enlisted personnel by her steadfast presention of a supportive voice in the community for the United States Armed Services. Bluesage was commended for her work in the creation and promotion of the "We Support our Troops Sign" drive and regular instances of supportive "protests" letting our troops and their dependants know that they are appreciated.
In accepting the Citizen of the Year Award Bluesage recognized the work of others who have stood with her (Prov3456, Zip & Mrs. Zip, Bogey, GulfWar1vet, The Snowflake and other non-Freepers) and helped drive home the message to everyone: that never again will American military personnel be made to feel unappeciated in their own land.
The author of this post - Dogrobber - wants to express his own pride in this public recognition of Bluesage's activities. I have the honor to be married to Bluesage and I have known her for close to twenty years. She deserved this recognition and I could not be more proud of her.
honer = honor
Note to self: Never type when tired.

Congrats to Bluesagewoman!!!
Whooohooo! :-)
Congratulations, blue, to you and the Missouri FReepers!
Congratulations Bluesagewoman!!
Way to go, Missouri!!
WOOHOO!! AWESOME!!
Congratulations, blue!
And many thanks to all the Mid-MO. FReepers for all you've done, and do, each week in support of the Military.
*HUGZ* all 'round!
This is just fantastic!
In addition to showing visibly the support of the troops, you all had the added bonus of getting in some really valuable blows in our culture war against the leftists.
Does your jaw hurt from grinning?
Where are the pics??
You deserve all the accolades for your hard work..
Dogrobber, congratulations for being smart enough to marry such a great woman...
Missouri, Thanks for the ping..
Everyone knows troop supporters are sweethearts! =)
Congratulations, bluesagewoman and dogrobber. Both of you are great friends and role models. Your courage to take a stand against the Columbia peaceniks after 911 is what motivated the rest of us to join you.
Thank you for taking the lead in supporting our troops. And THANK YOU, military and military families, for your willingness to sacrifice everything to maintain the freedom all of us take so much for granted!!!
You both do us proud -- thanks for jobs well done.
Well done and congrats to both of you.
A nice recognition to go with turning Boone County into Bush Country...no
matter how close the margin!
