Lord,

Keep our Troops forever in Your care

Give them victory over the enemy...

Grant them a safe and swift return...

Bless those who mourn the lost.
.

FReepers from the Foxhole join in prayer
for all those serving their country at this time.

U.S. Military History, Current Events and Veterans Issues

Where Duty, Honor and Country
are acknowledged, affirmed and commemorated.

Our Mission:

The FReeper Foxhole is dedicated to Veterans of our Nation's military forces and to others who are affected in their relationships with Veterans.

In the FReeper Foxhole, Veterans or their family members should feel free to address their specific circumstances or whatever issues concern them in an atmosphere of peace, understanding, brotherhood and support.

The FReeper Foxhole hopes to share with it's readers an open forum where we can learn about and discuss military history, military news and other topics of concern or interest to our readers be they Veteran's, Current Duty or anyone interested in what we have to offer.

If the Foxhole makes someone appreciate, even a little, what others have sacrificed for us, then it has accomplished one of it's missions.

We hope the Foxhole in some small way helps us to remember and honor those who came before us.

THE UNOFFICAL MRE RECIPE BOOKLET




OR HOW TO HAVE FUN EATIN ON THE RUN




With the demise of the C-rations in the early 1980s and the advent MRES the McIllhenny Company stepped up and produced an updated version of the Charlie Ration Cookbook. In 1984 The Unofficial MRE Recipe Booklet was brought out with the help of the Bettle Bailey crew to help the GIs spice up their rations. So here is "The Unofficial MRE Recipe Booklet" or "How to Have Fun Eatin on the Run"

borter?? what kind of typo is that? should be "brother."

We're proud of our typo's in the Foxhole. Samwise explained it once, something about us all being so smart causes it. ;-)

OH NO!!! I hope you've healed up quickly! I'm sorry to hear about your toe. ouch!

My uncle wants a bat house. Since I've been living with this aunt and uncle since September I think I need to get him one. I did some reading up on them one day and it seems a little iffy to me. Not really sure we're in the right place for a house --- but, there are a lot of bats living in the school gym which is only 2 blocks from us. ~shrugging~ So, I think my uncle needs a bat house.

According to what I read we should be a little closer to the river (which is dry now anyway.) Also, reading said there shouldn't be streetlights nearby. There are lights. And also said that the bats needs at least 50 yards of a flyway into the house. Seems like lots of pecan trees in the way for that.

But, gonna get a bathouse.

karateboy recently figured out he could carry the kittens around. Before we only had Ben, a hugh old tomcat that will be too big for him to carry for at least another year or two.
