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!

Morning everyone.

Have you two tried these yet? It is a "faux" steak, sorta. It was developed at U of Neb and is half as expensive as filet but supposed to be as good. It is actually from the chuck part of the steak, cut deep within.

Anyway, I bought some for the canteen since they were so cheap. Interested in feedback.

[Billie]

Wonderful graphic, Victoria! Good morning. :^)

Here is the caption for post #46.

< A flat iron steak cooks over an open wood fire at the Whiskey Creek restaurant in Fremont, Neb., Tuesday Nov 6, 2001. The new flat iron steak, discovered during a three-year study by the University of Nebraska's Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources and the University of Florida, is cut from deep within the shoulder muscle known as the chuck, is rather tender considering it has little fat, tastes like a New York strip, but costs about half as much as a choice filet or strip.(AP Photo/Nati Harnik)

Hey, it LOOKS delicious!

If they put some of those tasty-lookin' little darlings in those plastic MRE pouch *retorts*, they should be a considerable improvement over the MRE *Pork steak* patties.

But I suppose that'd be too good for US troops.

Question: Since I am going to have to wear a uniform
while performing Coast Guard Auxiliary dutites can I flirt more than LOUIE? LOL

Hey....you're a 'flirt' without the 'uni'.

And I'm not a flirt.

I just speak the truth, and the ladies know it.

That's why they love me.

Now go on about your businness.

Damn, now I have to go back to the grocer - flat iron steak has a nice ring to it - thanks for the alert! ;-)

I haven't seen or heard of this newest cut of beef. We have our beef custom cut at the local locker,,, we buy it from our neighbors. It is Prime meat. My troups prefer the sirloins or the rib eyes,,,, always eat the T-bones last! I like those chuch roasts,,, they are nice for baking really slowly on a busy day,,, the leftovers always get barbeque sauce for sandwiches. I don't think I want my butcher guy messing with the chuck cuts.

I can see this would be a nice alternative cut to have available in supermarkets,, especially during this economic downturn. My cap's off to the Nebraska folks for developing this, and if anyone trys one, I hope they'll report to us about it.
