FReeper Canteen~May~National Military Appreciation Month~May 5, 2005
May 4, 2005 | bentfeather/Canteen Crew

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

~May~ National Military
Appreciation Month~



We thank you, you who volunteer
To join the military to protect
what's here...
The Constitution, the Rule of law,
Our way of freedom loved by all
In this wondrous land of ours
Whose Stars and Stripes flow freely
O’er the land, whose seas are free,
Don’t tread on us... we are too, proud
To let you turn us into dust!

We appreciate your bravery, your valor,
Your honor, your gallantry,
Thank You for all you do.
And let Freedom ring the whole world through.










The price that's paid for freedom made
an entire family terribly sad.
A nation must know the price that's paid
of blood, of tears, of love,
greater than any made
a life for freedom paid.

May our gracious God touch the hearts
and ease their pain.
Their loved one did not die in vain...
A Hero walks tall in a lofty land
of peace and will be forever young,
In the Mansions of the Lord.

Amen

Coal bins in the basement, also, potato bins and carrots and beets buried in sand.

Had to keep the cats out of there though. :-)

Way kewl FReep! Hope you have had a wonderful time in Austin! I am so jealous! I would love to be with other FReepers in person--I almost was not too long ago, but something kept it from happening! *sigh* Maybe some other time.

How did you celebrate your birthday? Did you have some Mexican Food since you're a Cinco kid?
