Dearest Canteen,

I will not be checking in too much tomorrow as I am taking Matthew (the almost 4 year old) to our local fair.

In honor of September 11th, the fair is having a SALUTE TO THE MILITARY day.

I thought it would be a good way to show the little one some good people honoring his dad!

I will be keeping the date in my mind all day and hope that we all can remember, always, that freedom is indeed not free!

Have a GREAT sports day (my Mariners are not doing so well)!

I do so appreciate you all!
(Believe it or not, this little thing took me over an hour! But I'm geting better!)

 

 

~~~~~~Goodnight all!~~~~~~

 

Thanks to all of you

who have made this a

relaxing and enjoyable

place to take a break.

We Sincerely appreciate it!

We Will Never Forget!

 

 

Marine Corp's Flag still

standing at the Pentagon after the attacks of

September 11.

February 23, 1945

Five Marines and a Navy hospital corpsman
raise the flag on Mount Suribachi, Iwo Jima,
using a piece of Japanese pipe as a mast,
on 23 Feb. 1945.

Three of the flag raisers were later killed
as the fighting raged on.

The Iwo Jima flag raising photo and subsequent
statue, came to symbolize being a Marine.

September 12, 2001

Brooklyn Firefighters: Dan McWilliams,
George Johnson, and Billy Eisengrein
at the World Trade Center site.

McWilliams said, "Every pair of eyes that saw
that flag, got a little brighter."

Below is a little known tribute to September 11th.

It is not as professional as some but

I found it to be truly touching

Family,

 

~Goodnight Canteen!~
