FReeper Canteen ~ Valentine's Day: No Greater Love ~ 14 FEB 2006

We Support Our Troops! For the freedom you enjoyed yesterday... Thank the Veterans who served in The United States Armed Forces.

No greater love hath a man than to give his life for his friends.

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT: Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allies military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

On Valentine's Day, we celebrate love. Usually we celebrate the love between a man and a woman. However, there are many faces of love, and I believe that our men and women who serve or have served in our armed forces are the epitome of love. The sacrifice, the caring, the hardships--they endure all because they believe in our country, they believe in defending her people, and they believe in the rights for which our forefathers fought so adamantly. I dedicate this thread to recognizing the faces of love that these fine folks show to us in so many ways. God bless each of them.

The one featured on the show rented for $400/night with 24 pounds of chocolate

24 pounds would be enough for me for one night -- as long as I'm not expected to share. ;)

Special request: Make it dark chocolate!
