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!
"No Marine was ever honored for what they received. Honor was the reward for what they gave." (Anonymous) CHIEF gave his all in many ways. He touched our lives and his friendship meant so much to all of us. He will live in our hearts forever, and his friendship will always be a bright and shining memory in our hearts and souls.

Glad I could add.
Just got off the phone with Sis about 5 minutes ago. She's doing much better than when he first left. She said he got through a hellish day of PT, today, but took the time to stand in the phone line to call her. He hit 40/40 during M-16 qualification today. So, in other words, if he were in the actual field, and there were 40 Teleban in view, not-a-one would've escaped. Not-A-One! Sis was so glad to hear from him.
I mailed him "Black Hawk Down" on Friday afternoon. Prior to that, I hooked him into Ambroses "Band of Brothers". He took it out on maneuvers and read it during the downtime this past summer. (BTW: I read "Band of Brothers" before it was cool to read "Band of Brothers" -- I'm an American History undergrad; one more semester remaining)
Sleep sound. Our shores and country are in good hands, but I'm certain you already knew that!
To: B4Ranch

To: WileyCoyote22

To: Billie
Thank you, Billie. I'd love another cup of coffee...as long as it's decaf! Otherwise, I'll be up all night! Good to see you again, as well.
I have to leave in a bit to make a big ol' batch of brownies for the Canteen. ;o)
To: Snow Bunny
Thanks for adding me to your list! If it's okay, I'll be stopping my rather regularly to drop off some homemade goodies for the troops. Tomorrow...my grandmother's brownies!
It's very nice to meet you, as well.;o)
To: Mrs.Liberty
