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.

O.K. SAM, I have arrived and I'm ready to par-tee! You promised me a dance. I want to do a slow two-step to the Freddie Fender song, "Till the Next Teardrop Falls". One of my all time favorites. I've got my boots on.

Good evening Flag man. It's been a while. I absolutely love this dance party. I want to commend all those who have had a hand in putting it together. I don't even have time to enjoy all of it tonight, but I will try to spend some time tomorrow afternoon just enjoying the music and chatter. It's great and a keeper. Will the music links stay good for a long time?

The one's on my server will be out there until at least Monday night. I used up my entire 10 megs and started using my son's web space. So I have to clean it up sooner or later.

Some improvement, hon. We went to a bluegrass concert tonight that our son's group was playing, and it's the first time I've seen Jack laugh for nine weeks. It was a great concert too. Idletymes does a fantastic show. Their harmony is like silk. Smooth.

Well, SAM - I have kept vigil with you most of the day.
The music was great - the company in the Canteen the best in the world!

We laugh and cry and play - but in our hearts are those who cannot be physically with us,
and they are never far from our thoughts and prayers.

To all you in the military and your families, our real purpose is to keep you right there,
holding you fast.
Good night - and God be with you ~ ~ ~

Well it would seem - if COB1's done it right - that the barn should be all cleared out by now
(all the dancers outside gasping for breath)
so we should have the barn to ourselves Tonk....

lead away. :)
