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!

During a Sensitive Site Exploitation (SSE) mission in the Zhawar Kili area of Eastern Afghanistan U.S. Navy SEALs (SEa, Air, Land) found valuable intelligence information, including this Osama Bin Laden propaganda poster located in an al-Qaeda terrorist classroom. In addition to detaining several suspected Al Qaeda and Taliban members, SEALs also found a large cache of munitions in numerous caves and above-ground structures. The SEALs and Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) personnel destroyed more than 70 caves and 60 structures by using on-ground explosives and air strikes. Navy special operations forces are conducting missions in Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Credit photo to Official U.S. Navy photo. FOR THIS PHOTO DO NOTCREDIT PHOTOGRAPHER.

"I AM YOUR FLAG"

I am the Flag of the United States of America.
I am called Old Glory.
I am called the Star Spangled Banner.
I am the rockets red glare;
The bombs bursting in air.
I am the omnipotence of patriotism.

I am the winter in Valley Forge.
I am the White House in 1812.
I am the hills in Gettysburg.
I am the Alamo in Texas.
I am the San Juan Hill in Cuba.
I am the trenches in France and Germany.
I am the Forbidden City in Peking.
I am the beaches in Anzio, Guadacanal, Iwo Jima, Normandy, and Sicily.
I am the hills in Korea.
I am the jungles and highlands in Vietnam.
I am the airport in Beirut.
I am the American University in Grenada.
I am the streets in Somalia.
I am the river in Panama.
I am the sands in Kuwait.
I am the streets of Bosnia.
I am the villages in Kosova.
I am the caves in Afghanistan.

I am the names of those who never came back,
Trying to keep this republic free.
When you salute me,
You are actually saluting them.
I am the symbol of America,
The Home of the Proud, the Brave, and the Free.

[4TheFlag]

And a lump in you throat

[whoever]

I am not an old softy, by any stretch of the imagination, but, I am, also, never ashamed of the tears I shed in pride of my Country, my Flag, my President, my defenders of the peace.

[4TheFlag]

The Home of the Proud, the Brave, and the Free
