USO Canteen FReeper Style Military Support Links

Armed Forces Careers

Army	Navy	Air Force	Marines	Coast Guard

The Fisher House program is a unique private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need by providing homes close to a loved one during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury. There are currently 31 houses located on the grounds of every major military medical center and several VA medical centers. These houses will play a critical role in caring for casualties from Operation Iraqi Freedom. Donations will be used to help meet the cost of lodging for a family whose loved one was injured in Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom. There is a limit to the number of families who can stay in a Fisher House and program is committed to help provide lodging for families who must find commercial lodging, because the Fisher House is full.

Access the Wounded Heroes Guestbook to write a message of encouragement for a hero wounded in the line of duty.   Messages in the Wounded Heroes Guestbook are viewed by wounded soldiers, their loved ones, and the general public.

VetsCoR is pleased to present: a CD message of support from America to our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and Coast Guardsmen deployed in the Middle East, and other places around the globe, in the ongoing war on terrorism.

If you have a family member deployed, and would like to send them a copy of the CD, please click here. (VetsCoR will mail a copy of the CD FREE to any APO/FPO or military address.) If you want a copy of the CD and you are not a member of the Armed Forces, you may order a copy for $5.00 each. Click the VetsCor Logo for more information.

Share your thoughts, good wishes and messages with American troops deployed around the globe. In turn, we hope those in service will be able to view them on this site, and perhaps respond themselves. ADD A SERVICEPERSON: Please help make this tribute more complete by creating a page for your own friends and family who are currently deployed around the globe.

Norton sent a special version of their virus update yesterday but I was unable to download it due to a transmission error. This morning they cleard up the probelm and I was able to download the update.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE. DARN, tomkow told me it was going to be Waffles on Wednesday.

[Fawnn]

I love the Land o' Lakes Flapjack Festival costumes! (Finally an outfit that'd ... errrr ... "complement" the size of my fanny! Bonus, I wouldn't have to worry about having a bad hair day either! At first I thought it'd be better if they have a Waffle Festival costume, but then I remembered I could wear that outfit when I serve my Freedom Flapjacks!) ;)

[SouthernHawk]

Good Morning E.G.C.

Things are going well. The Norton news is very helpful.

Have you noticed how quiet it is in the Canteen before Tomkow shows up?

[SouthernHawk]

You should know better then to trust him!

Good Morning BeachN4Fun !
