USO Canteen Freeper Style

War has come to our shores. It was committed on American soil.  We have been able to live in Freedom only because of those who have fought in the past wars giving life, limb and all the sacrifices for us to live in Freedom and go about our day without fear.

On September 11, 2001, that comfort, that feeling of living in a land that would not be attacked ended.

William T. Sherman said it succinctly, "War is hell."

The day has come for this Nation and its people to understand that there is a risk in losing its freedom, and in reality there always has been. We have ONLY stayed free because of the sacrifices of our military, our warriors.

This is about saving the future of America. Aristotle said, "We make war that we may live in peace."

We are seeing the American Flag flying at homes now more than ever in my lifetime. We are seeing the American Flag flying on vehicles and people wearing Flag pins and small Flags on their clothes. America is united in the cause for Freedom and for our country to WIN against the evil that came upon our land to kill and hurt us. To change our way of life and to destroy America which is US, you and me. To take away our precious Freedom.

This is the Freeper version of the USO Canteen. Where soldiers could come and feel a small part of being at home. It is a place where you that have family in the military can post a thought to a loved one that might be able to read it far away from home. A place where we that support our military can help support them, post to them, fun graphics showing the price in America and our troops. Poems, quotes, cartoons, or articles of how America is behind our troops.

Those in our military are our Nation's warriors. Let us join hands, fly our Flag and let the world know how important our warriors are to us....And that our MILITARY, our Warriors, are America's TRUE HEROS!

I'm just enjoying working on this stuff - it's part fluff, but a whole lot of patriotism and love of country. Had to have the wattsman in it. :^) Oops - I meant to take this to thread II. Don't answer here if you answer go to thread II! :^)

Oh Billie, You're a dear. I've been accepted for active duty to serve our country, and I'll do it PROUDLY. What a creative idea, ladies. I love my new uniform (and in my body of 10 years ago.)

GOD BLESS the USA!!!!

P.S. You're one very talented lady. This patriotism is so contagious. :-)

Thanks to you both! This is great fun and inspiring, all at once. I'm an army vet and can remember USO efforts to entertain the troops and raise morale. Shh! Here is a secret. It wasn't the coffee and doughnuts. The main attraction was beautiful ladies. You two and the other Freeper gals have outdone yourselves :-)

Bless my heart, I haven't seen this photo. But I must be in there somewhere -- I was carrying the Wisconsin flag, with pride and delight.

I know I spelled yacht wrong.
I just wanted to point out that when either one of you ping me,
please copy and paste this:

68-69TonkinGulfYatchClub

no spaces and wrong spelling for yacht
otherwise I'll miss my pings
and I'd never want to miss a ping from either one of you!
