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!

Thank you B4Ranch for this. It is really good.

Thanx for the new thread, SB. Those Iowa Chops lodwick has been whinning about will be ready soon. It was warm here in the midwest today, so I made a big container of Sun Tea.

Hope the troops that read this don't think all the Little Old Ladies they're defending are "a few cards short of a Deck".

Happy to see your Sweetie has consented to help out with the Canteen, SB. Sometimes it's really nice to have a few more fellas around to help out.

[Snow Bunny]

Thanks so much.

Hi, Bunny - thanks for the new thread! Now we just need some food!

[Snow Bunny]

He loves to help the girls. We are lucky to with so many wonderful freeper guys here.

From what I have hear on the phone with some of the men and women at the Air Base and the Marine Club here in Las Vegas they are loving it. They said their mouth is watering with the food and they love the pictures Billie posted of all the " chicks". hahahahaahaha

A few have said they are sending the url to their friends that have already taken off and are over there now.

[Billie]

Let's go see what's in the kitchen - Iowa Granny's here and when she's here, there's always somthin' yummy to eat! (Pork chops? Yea!)

[Billie]

That's really nice to hear, isn't it, that our chatter and the graphics and the comradarie here is giving them pleasure.

[Snow Bunny]

Billie, I want to thank you so much. You taught me how to do threads and when I did that one " We Were Soldiers" IA DRANG Battle in Viet Nam"...I could not have done it without you teaching me how to do threads. You gave me confidence and I honestly had none.

You taught me so many things on here and I really appreciate it so much. You have no idea now nervous I was to learn this stuff. hahahhahaa

Love ya my friend.

Now we just need some food!

In the immortal words of Mel Brooks in Blazing Saddles, "Work, work, work, work, work!" Okay, the chocolate cake is out of the oven. Don't be put off by the white powdery stuff on top. It's not anthrax, just powdered sugar!

[Billie]

Yesterday we had many extra "pinups" posted for the GUYS in the military......now, it's the military girls' turn for some beefcake! Presenting the ALL FREEPER, ALL GUYS ALL THE TIME 2002 Calendar.....

[Cagey]

I can't stop laughing at that photo "in the mirror".

Keep up the good work here.

[Billie]

I bet you put a doily on top of the cake before you sprinkled the powdered sugar, so it will be pretty! Do we have any ice cream?

[lormand]

Great thread there Snow Bunny!
