SOUP FOR THE TROOPS

Good morning, Everyone.

A pinch of this...a scoop of that...

Winds ten times stronger than a hurricane on Earth
blow around Saturn's equator. Wind speeds can reach 1,100 mph.

Winnie, from Winnie the Pooh,
was named after a bear at the London Zoo.
The animal had been born in Canada
but brought to London in 1914
as the mascot of a Canadian regiment.

It is estimated that a single toad
may catch and eat as many as 10,000
insects in the course of a summer.

In Albania, nodding the head means "no"
and shaking the head means "yes."

At the start of the twentieth century,
the spectacular city
(pfft)
of Las Vegas, Nevada, didn't even exist.
Now it's home to more than one million people,
and the city boasts nine of the world's ten largest hotels.

The FR Canteen is ALWAYS

I've got to go for my morning walk.
But, I'll check pings on my return.
Please stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!

REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM
