A little Irish drinking song (NSFW)

An Irish blessing May ye always have food and raiment And a soft pillow for yer head And may ye be half an hour in Heaven 'Fore the Devil knows yer dead!

The Navy band marches past the recently landmarked Bergdorf Goodman store and then the Plaza Hotel in last year’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade on Fifth Avenue:

Thanks for this beautiful thread.

Here’s the Marine band. Those flags carried by the FDNY are one for every firefighter killed on 9/11:

WELCOME TO THE

Good morning, Everyone.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen
for today's activities.

Good news: I got my laptop open,
but I've been so scared off turning it off,
that I have left it on, in sleep mode, for days.
I'm going to have to call someone to take a look at it.
But I hate to be without my laptop for days.

Gotta catch up on pings,
and have another cup of coffee before starting my day.

Please stay and
keep the troops entertained
and clean the party mess before you leave.

Remember, the Canteen is

So, come on in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM ~ DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

On St. Patrick's Day, which falls during the Christian season of Lent, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon.

Next year maybe instead of green beer we can have a picture of St Patrick's Cathedral
