Good morning, Snippy and everyone at the Freeper Foxhole.

Folks, be sure to plan accordingly regarding your computers as there is a G3 Magnetic storm forecast for tyda which could cause electricity disruptions.

Good morning Snippy. I read Mauldin's cartoons in the Chicago Sun-Times when I was growing up and read both "Up Front" and "The Brass Ring".



Thanks for including my favorite Mauldin Cartoon.



Mauldin got co-star billing with Audie Murphy in "The Red Badge of Courage"

Morning Glory Snip & Sam~

ROFLOL! And wiping away tears of laughter. Oh mercy! This makes my day!

By making soldiers laugh at their grievances and letting them know that someone else understood them, he said in effect, he was helping them to let off steam in a relatively harmless way and thereby preventing the mutiny that Patton was so sure he was causing.

Genius. This is the kind of humor that keeps us from taking ourselves too serious. Bill Mauldin would have made a great FReeper!

Dear Lord, watch over our Brothers and Sisters who remain in harms way, where ever they are around the globe. Grant them Thy blessing, that they be protected from harm, and may they be safely, and swiftly, returned to their loved ones. AMEN

G'morning peoples ... :)

Evening friends.

On Wednesday, January 22, 2003 Bill Mauldin died of complications from Alzheimer's disease, including pneumonia, at a Newport Beach nursing home, said Andy Mauldin, 54, of Santa Fe, New Mexico, one of the cartoonist's seven sons.

May he rest in peace. I love Mauldin's cartoons. Thanks for the thread, Snippy.
