A Touch of Home
.
This is how I think of the USO Canteen
Freeper Style. It is like a cottage down a road,
a place where a weary veteran can spend the night.
Since it opened, it is magical how so many
Freepers who post here, feel it too.
It has been so dear how the Freepers
kept making it a cottage - a home-type of
place that had a huge living room
for them to visit in and a dance floor,
a library, etc.
Many Veterans have written to me,
saying that the Canteen is like home
to them for the first time since they
served.
This is your Canteen -
a respite from our busy
and sometimes troubling world.
Make yourself at home.

If you know a Veteran, someone in your family,
friend of the family, neighbor, who served their
country, take a brief moment of your day to thank
them.
Thank them for the sacrifice they made
for the better good of their country.
We at Free Republic, and the USO Canteen FReeper
Style, are thankful for every service member
in our military, who has served our great nation.
So, to the men and women who answered the call,
In both times of war and peace, thank you.
.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
John McCrae

Thanks for letting us know about the "lady's" new name, Duchess.
Congrats, Diva. It's a fantastic name for that sleek ride.
Long Cut, I hope you and Mrs. Cut have many years of enjoyment cruising around in "La Contessa".

I don't drive. I only fly among the stars! Hmmm, we've got a problem then. This ride is definitely not leaving the ground....unless there's something under the hood we haven't been told about. LOL!

Hello, Bunny lady! Here's one for you
To: Mr_Magoo
Thanks for the history of the A-10 Thunderbolt, Mr_Magoo. It's very strange looking, but sure does a good job.

I really don't think this paddy wagon will go fast, Duchess. Unless the mechanic is like my hubby....he likes to put 'surprises' under the hood. hahaha!
I don't mind driving.. it'll keep me out of the back. heh heh heh!
