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.
Good morning Everyone
We were at work by that time.
My office building was across the river from the Pentagon
but I hadn't heard what happened until I got a call asking if I was okay.
My windows faced the opposite direction so
I had run to another room to see across the river.
I could see the black smoke.
No one knew what was going on but one of the men
in the office turned on the tv in his office and that's when we knew.
I was stunned. We were glued to the tv most of the day.
Of course, there was no way to get off the base because traffic was backed up everywhere; sitting ducks too.
Forget? Never.
And for anyone trying to say that we need to stop
remembering those who perished due to evil because it incites hatred,
I say, remember Pearl Harbor?
Well, we remember still but do not hate all of the Japanese for what a few chose to do.
We know and knew who the enemy was that day.
I could not let this day go by without stopping to say
THANK YOU
to all of our Service HEROES!
Remember those who gave all!
