Supporting the best Troops in the world. ^ | March 5, 2007 | Soaring Feather/FReeper Canteen

Posted on 03/05/2007 5:59:14 PM PST by Soaring Feather



Good morning Troops!
Thank You for your service.



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.





Honoring Military Women. Click here.





Welcome to the home of the skeptical, irascible, doubting, iconoclastic Captain Critical, aka Captain Barb, whose pontificating will try to amuse, bemuse, irritate and generally annoy anyone bold enough to stay long enough to read the ramblings of a self appointed distaff critic who will continue to remind you that women are veterans too!
Did you know that there are almost two million women veterans? From the American Revolution to Panama, Bosnia, Kosovo,
Afghanistan and Iraq , women have served in some way in every conflict. Not that they were legal in the early days. History tells us that thirty three thousand women served in World War One and almost 500,000 took part in World War Two. During the Korean era 120,000 women were in uniform and seven thousand were deployed in theater during Viet Nam. During Desert Storm seven per cent of the total U.S. forces deployed were women - over forty thousand of them. On these pages you will find the history and accomplishments of those women who have served this country - voluntarily - since it's beginning.








Please remember the Canteen is cyber Home to our Troops.
Check your politics at the door.
Don't forget to hit hyper link for more information.
Thanks to all who enter this Canteen to Honor our Military.

From our church bulletin:

Rest in Peace

"Eric Ross, 26, of Bangor, Maine, was killed while serving his country in Iraq on Friday, February 9th, 2007. He was serving his second tour there.

"He is survived by his wife, Alison, two sons, a daughter, and an unborn son, as well as parents and extended family.

"Our Confirmation Class from 2005 here at Lourdes adopted Eric as a “pen pal”, writing him, sending cards, care packages and small tokens, which he shared with the men under his command.

"When he died, some of those cards and letters were found among his ‘personal effects’; he had saved them! And his family thought to contact Karen N. in the Religious Office to let her know that.

"The Christian kindness of our young people must have made a difference for Eric. He has made a difference for our country and for us here at Lourdes. We commend him to the Lord and hold up his family in our thoughts and prayers! May he rest in Christ’s Peace!"
