Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!
Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

The FR Canteen is Free Republic's longest running daily thread
specifically designed to provide entertainment and moral support for the military.
The doors have been open since Oct 7 2001,
the day of the start of the war in Afghanistan.
We are indebted to you for your sacrifices for our Freedom.
Across the United States and around the world, we often experience the dramatic effect of something no one can see. In 2011, for instance, several US cities were devastated by tornadoes that blew apart neighborhoods and business districts. And during each hurricane season, we are shocked as winds of more than 100 miles an hour threaten to destroy what we have built.
All of this is the result of an unseen force. Sure, we see the wind’s effects (flags flapping, debris flying), but we cannot see the wind itself. It works in mysterious invisibility.
In a sense, this is also true of the Holy Spirit. In Acts 2, when believers experienced the filling of the Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, “suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting” (Acts 2:2). That wind was a tangible demonstration to those early Christians that the unseen Spirit was at work in their lives. And He still works in our lives today! If you are a follower of Christ, be encouraged. The Holy Spirit bears fruit in your life (Gal. 5:22-23), forms believers into one body (1 Cor. 12:13), and assures you of God’s presence (1 John 3:24). The Holy Spirit is a powerful Person in our lives—even though we can’t see Him.
Read: Acts 2:1-11
Always remembering our troops! Thanks, Kathy for the great

Making Z Zoup
A pinch of this...a dash of that...
In the opening procession of the Olympics,
the team representing the host nation always marches last.
A claque is a group of people hired to applaud an act or performer.
The basilica was Pompeii's largest building
and was used for legal and commercial business.
In the fourth century, this style of building
was adopted by the newly legal Christian religion.
It became the standard floor plan
for the churches, or "basilicas," of medieval Europe.
Pinstripes were added to New York Yankee jerseys in 1912,
and then shelved for two seasons. They were re-introduced in 1915.
I'm hoping one of our many military guyz/galz will tell me
the difference between "returnee" and "...remains returned."
I've got to post and run.
Be back later to check pings.
But, you stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!
REMEMBER THEM
