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.

Ok, this is a test run for my new ping list. I'm crossing my fingers that it works.

[SassyMom]

That was to easy!!! *giggle*

[SAMWolf]

Afternoon everyone. What a great tribute to Corpsmen who have served with our Armed Forces.

We had an HM3 on our ship who proudly wore a Purple Heart w/ two stars. He served with FMF in Viet Nam and got transferred to our ship after the Navy thought 3 wounding incidents were more than enough.

Salute to ALL Armed Forces Medics.

(Snow, check your e-mail)

[COB1]

Okay, you've got that part down.
Now, one more little tip:
When you see someone's name on the Canteen or wherever that you want to add to a ping list, just right click and copy it then paste it into the proper list.
VOILA!!
In no time you have a ten thousand name ping list!!
LOL!

[whoever]

I got the ping. But, I am only a figment of your imagination, and therefore, not capitalized.

You catch on quickly.

[SassyMom]

Kewl!! Thanks for the tip! YIPPEEEE I learned something new!

[SassyMom]

And what a wonderful figment of my imagination you are. *smile*

When I was Right Guide for my platoon of 73, the game on base for every man was to make 'that WM out front' smile or laugh or lose her stride and be a disgrace to the Corps - heckling, catcalls, whistles from up close and either side - to which I was absolutely impervious. Should have won an Oscar for my performances!

Hehehe, here you are LadyX!

Ok, this is a test run for my new ping list. I'm crossing my fingers that it works.

It works!

I'm feeling under the weather today so I'll have to come back later to finish reading the thread. I have an important favor to ask of you all. My husband is having a really hard time right now. He emailed me this morning asking me if I knew of any scriptures to help comfort him. I know the Bible pretty well, and I could have told him if he hadn't asked me. Now I'm drawing a blank and the only thing I can think of is the whole book of Psalms. LOL Does anyone know of any scriptures I could tell him to look up to help him feel better?

Back to my couch. I'll come back later. :)

This is the kind of treatment that boils my blood!

[COB1]

Spook, I've always liked Ecclesiastes when I'm down, but you can't go wrong by getting comfort from the Psalms.
May the Holy Spirit give him AND YOU comfort this day.
