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.

lodwick -- I bet you've never even tried real Southern grits! Give 'em a chance. Some salt, pepper and butter -- yum. (Cream o'Wheat=yuck!)(snot & boogers=gross)
Granny, I'll take over cooking the grits for those of us who like them. Be warned though, breakfast for me starts around noon EST.
PS - GRITS also stands for Girls Raised In The South (like this Georgia girl)!

I will leave 'the dirty deed' to you. I will fix a more traditional midwest farm country breakfast. Tomorrow it's steak and eggs. Hash browns on the side. Fix your own toast. Farm breakfasts are served early,,, they can have your Grits for a snack mid morning.

Re: Your #155: Well, let's put it this way.
You did what you felt you had to do. No one held a gun to your head and forced you. You had choices, but you opted to enlist, travel to the other side of the world, and risk your very life for your country. NOT for some "domino theory", not for some politician, not because you had no other worldly prospects.
You put your life on the line for your Country........for us..........because you believed it to be necessary, no matter how screwed up the politicians or upper-upper military management may or may not have been.
.........and God bless you for it. Abundantly. Most of us didn't ignore it; most of us will never, ever forget it.
