FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT
Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allies military and the family members of the above.
Honoring those who have served before.

ArmyPatch small   NavySeal small   Air Force Seal   Marines Seal small   Coast Guard Seal small (better)



It is the Soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us freedom to protest.

It is the Soldier, not the lawyer
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,



And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protester to burn the flag.

-  Charles Michael Province, U.S. Army   

Thank you to all the heroes out there in the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard and National Guard who ensure that the freedoms we enjoy today will continue to future generations.  You are not forgotten.

For my Uncle Jack

My Pretty One tells me, that you've been ill
So I'm sending you purrs , and love and good will..
I'm hoping quite soon you are back on your feet
for without your fine prose, my days not complete!

I hope and I pray, that your soon on the mend..
and hope you can feel all the love that I send..
For Uncle Jack, I am with you in spirit..
If you close your eyes, I know you will hear it!

Love, Minette
