USO Canteen Freeper Style

War has come to our shores. It was committed on American soil.  We have been able to live in Freedom only because of those who have fought in the past wars giving life, limb and all the sacrifices for us to live in Freedom and go about our day without fear.

On September 11, 2001, that comfort, that feeling of living in a land that would not be attacked ended.

William T. Sherman said it succinctly, "War is hell."

The day has come for this Nation and its people to understand that there is a risk in losing its freedom, and in reality there always has been. We have ONLY stayed free because of the sacrifices of our military, our warriors.

This is about saving the future of America. Aristotle said, "We make war that we may live in peace."

We are seeing the American Flag flying at homes now more than ever in my lifetime. We are seeing the American Flag flying on vehicles and people wearing Flag pins and small Flags on their clothes. America is united in the cause for Freedom and for our country to WIN against the evil that came upon our land to kill and hurt us. To change our way of life and to destroy America which is US, you and me. To take away our precious Freedom.

This is the Freeper version of the USO Canteen. Where soldiers could come and feel a small part of being at home. It is a place where you that have family in the military can post a thought to a loved one that might be able to read it far away from home. A place where we that support our military can help support them, post to them, fun graphics showing the price in America and our troops. Poems, quotes, cartoons, or articles of how America is behind our troops.

Those in our military are our Nation's warriors. Let us join hands, fly our Flag and let the world know how important our warriors are to us....And that our MILITARY, our Warriors, are America's TRUE HEROS!

He touched our lives and his friendship meant so much to all of us. He will live in our hearts forever, and his friendship will always be a bright and shining memory in our hearts and souls.

You know that I love you Billie...........

You DO? (Is that the WWII pilot talking - the one that died in a fiery crash in 1943?),

but this picture of my jaunty Air crew days just keeps reminding me that I died in a fiery crash in 1943.

I'm glad you were reincarnated as ArneFufkin. :^)

[Billie]

Hope you got your coffee. Hope you didn't go around all day yesterday with that cinnamon and sugar you had on your face when you left here, too! I tried to tell you. :^)

[Billie]

Jim, maybe I can create an image link for Operation Infinite FReep and add it to the links at the bottom of our main thing? Would that work? And BTW, I'll work on that banner for the Canteen this weekend. Thanks so much!

[Billie]

Yummm, dee-lish! Tomorrow can you bring blueberry pancakes? :^)

[lodwick]

Could you dial in the Oklahoma v. Nebraska football game? Thanks, JL

[Billie]

Good morning, gonzo. Loved the pic of the plane, and the song, and we know you're not gonna change. Just wouldn't be you without ending your posts with "smootches, babes". Have another cup of coffee. :^)

[Billie]

Safe trip, Coby! Enjoy the little ones, too!

[Billie]

Thanks For The Memories Bob Hope, thank you for all you've done for so many years to bring some joy into the lives of so many troops with your USO Tours. We salute you, your wife, and all the entertainers who've traveled with you (Snow Bunny included)

Oh, Lord - I'd hate to move the clock FORWARD another time before we get to put it back where it BELONGS! I HATE DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME! I wish they'd just leave our clocks alone! Who needs the sun shining at 9 o'clock at night, pray tell? I used to think Arizona was "smart" by not observing Daylight Savings Time until I learned that they really "do" - they just move to Pacific Time during the months we have the Daylight Savings - they're doing the exact same thing as "observing" Daylight Savings, but instead change the difference between their time and the other three U.S. zones by an hour. Smart? :^)

I think I am getting the hang of this HTML Stuff. a snaphot I took 5 mins ago.

Thanks, FRee - we just sorta share the credit, and I'm feeling very proud when someone tells Bunny what a great job she did, and vice versa. I said it a couple of times - Bunny paints pictures with words; I make pictures with people. :^)

[Billie]

I don't do football, JL! :^) Now, basketball is a different story!

REF: POST #90...A bump to all my friends who are making my duty in the Balkans easier to bear by keeping me informed of whats going on back at home, and for all your prayers and support!!

The rule for the crazy time changes is FALL BACK.......and SPRING FORWARD. I wish they's just leave it alone. It takes 2 weeks to get my biological clock changed.

SALUTE

[Snow Bunny]

Thank you David, This will be an excellent photo for Billie to use. Thank you for doing it this way . HTML is a hard thing to learn and I too have much to learn about it.

Thanks again. Billie is working so hard on the pictures and so many things for the Canteen.It makes it so very special.

Good morning, beautiful! Can't think of a better way to start my day than a ping from a sweetheart like you. I'm sure our men in uniform enjoy hearing from you every bit as much! This thread is a great idea, and Billie's artwork is very cool. You sweet ladies are what it's all about, God bless you!

The least I can do is buy a round for the guys, things may get a little dry in some parts over there. I'll check out JimRob's links too.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

Good Morning Everyone!
I'll be off in a bit to see a local 8th graders football game where a friend of mine son plays.
Thank You all for keeping the spirit of America alive!
God Bless America
