Veterans for Constitution Restoration is a non-profit, non-partisan educational and grassroots activist organization. The primary area of concern to all VetsCoR members is that our national and local educational systems fall short in teaching students and all American citizens the history and underlying principles on which our Constitutional republic-based system of self-government was founded. VetsCoR members are also very concerned that the Federal government long ago over-stepped its limited authority as clearly specified in the United States Constitution, as well as the Founding Fathers' supporting letters, essays, and other public documents.

Good morning, snippy and everyone at the Freeper Foxhole. It forze in our region this morning. Down to the lower 20's.

Mornin' Snippy,,Mornin' Sam!

I just snipped a couple of lines out of this story.

Begun as a lark, the all-girl "Rhea County Spartans" soon attracted the attention of unamused Union Officers. The true account of the only all-girl unit of the Civil War.

Finally, their transportation arrived--a crude little steamboat called USS Chattanooga. Their ordeal, however, was far from over.

The aging male veterans, North and South, often met to relive their youth, but the Rhea County Spartans never held a Reunion. That is regrettable, for the Ladies had a fascinating story to tell. In a sense, they, too, had "Seen the Elephant" and done their patriotic duty as they saw fit.

I caught a bit of Fox and Friends this morning...does anyone remember the joint Navy/USMC video that came out last year, the one that looked kinda like a recruiting film?

Well, they've done it again! They showed trailers from it this morning, and it looks awesome! The full 6:37 film will be shown tomorrow morning during the 6 O'Clock segment.

You can also view it by clicking here. The link is top and center on their home page at www.usmc.mil.

Morning Snippy.

Thanks for this thread, I've read about the battles around Chattanooga and knew about the supply problems but this is the first time I've read about the details of how they were solved.

I wonder why they named a part of the river after Clinton before he was even born. ;-)

Good evening all at the Foxhole!

Shoo, this 'puter's giving me grief! I don't think the satellite for internet access likes this cold weather any more than I do! LOL! It's 40 degrees colder right now than it was 24 hours ago. BRRRRRRRRR!!

Howdy service men and women, past and present!
THANK YOU for serving the USA!
