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!

"we lost all our pictures as Mr. Teacup was attempting to download them to my desk top."

I told you and the old Gyrene about that home brew!
Even the pictures blow up!
LOL!

[Teacup]

Cobby your ears must have been burning last night, LOL. I told G'nad about your beer making attempt, HA! HA! And how your bottle caps blew off the bottles, HA! HA!. When are you coming out to Virginia?

[COB1]

GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE!

I like your opening post, Billie.
If I hadn't had the ability to cry after 9/11, I think I would have exploded!

[conserve-it]

You are right, of course to impeach my logic. I just yearn for the Reagan days, I guess.

[4TheFlag]

The g'nads visit the Teacups....the photo collection.

[Teacup]

ROFLMAO! That's so funny! Wait until Mr. Teacup comes home. He will get such a kick out of this, HA! HA! HA! You're funny ;^) But honestly, G'nad and his family really did come over.

In Honor of those who gave their lives and those who were gravely disabled.
Thank You Brothers and Sisters for your sacrifices.

And Thank You to ALL who have and still support our Armed Forces.

LOL about those picture frames! Ain't technology (and I'm talking digital cameras here) grand, T?

[g'nad]

G'nad and his family is just an absolutely wonderful family

LOL! You are too kind Teacup! My kids were on a roll...especially when Jake ran through the front room squealing at the top of his lungs "I gotta go pee!!!!"

I gotta tell you all, Mr. and Mrs. Teacup rolled out the red carpet for us. They have an incredible house in a great location...now I just gotta talk 'em into letting me bow hunt on ther land... Teacup makes some mean salsa, and Mr. Teacup whips on some durn respectable homebrew.

You're right, Teacup, Feepers are awesome! Thanks JimRob!

I'm glad ya'll had the chance to get together. I know how that goes, FReepers are such wonderful people, and living in a high tourist area, I have had the opportunity to host several who have come out to South Dakota.

Hopefully this summer I will be meeting Gator Girl and her Family, and anybody else that comes to Mt. Rushmore and the Black Hills, PLEASE let me know, I would love to meet you...

ROTFLMAO!! I can't help but notice how much they all look alike.

[Billie]

I dunno, Sam - it looks like T Man can hold his liquor better than the rest of you - look at him - he looks none the worse for wear. Guess it's all in what you're used to. Prolly does it all the time. :)
