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!
"No Marine was ever honored for what they received. Honor was the reward for what they gave." (Anonymous) CHIEF gave his all in many ways. 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 are going to give me a complex yet, you rascal.
I confess, I was thinking about something else and that one got by me. But, you must admit, I am getting better, (according to your way of thinking).

Thanks Billie, I posted the graphic and the signature separate. Is that the right way? If so, how do I get the signature to the right and not centered. I'm missing something there. Thanks for your help, just send the bill to T Man. *giggle*

Hey, here is my Little Red Ridinghood dress.... (I did the signature all by myself.... yippee)
I just had to show off.
---------------------------
Yes, they are two separate graphics so you have to post them separately. I just checked the properties and see the banner is very wide - any way you could cut some of that excess space off? You wouldn't be able to put this one on the right of the pic because of all the white space on either side of the name - it would be WAAAAAY far right of the graphic. It's best centered under the graphic, but if you DID want one to the right of the graphic, you don't put a line break after the graphic post - that simple! It will be posted beside the graphic without the line break. :)
