FReeper Canteen ~ Honoring Military Women ~ 06 March 07~
Supporting the best Troops in the world. ^ | March 5, 2007 | Soaring Feather/FReeper Canteen

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.

They are doing well - thanks.
Meghan swings from "everybody hates me" to being on top of the world. I never know just what I'll run into when I get home!
It is interesting

Lime Diet Coke is for sale in actual stores! :D It's much better than just plain old diet coke.

I can't WAIT until Rebecca hits "that" age!
Anyway, we had a long talk a couple of nights ago about being you own person and not trying to "adjust" just so someone will be your "friend".
I tried to explain that you friends know you have quirks - but like you anyway.
It's tough trying to figure out how to interact socially. I wish I could help her.

LOL! Well, it was an issue with the MS Framework .NET 1.1. :-) We tried just uninstalling that and reinstalling, but it didn't work. Had to back up his data file to the desktop, uninstall the whole program piece by piece, reinstall, restore the data file, and remap the program to find the lessons which were previously installed. Not a big deal in the end, just time consuming and - for someone like me who is paranoid of doing the wrong thing and screwing it up royally - a bit nervewracking! :-)
