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!

[Billie]

Oh, you guys and girls, this is just fabulous! You put a lot of time and work and talent in this, and does it ever show! I don't want to take the time to post - just want to read it all! Thank you, all of you, for doing such a special and fun thread for today. Can't wait to see all the "gowns" the ladies will wear!

I'm sorry I wasn't ready when you called, Wolfie,...

Quite alright.

Good morning! What a fun time at the Canteen. Don't you just love the fashions from that time - so elegant.

Oh, Magoo.....You've done it again!

Good Morning, all...I hardly recognize this place! You've really outdone yourselves!

[The Thin Man]

Where's T Man? I'm sure I saw his Edsel parked out front, so I know he's here.

Couldn't be my Edsel. Had to sell it to pay off a very large debt.

Fortunately, I was able to catch a ride. Not only that, I also finally found a date.

[Billie]

Sigh! Be still, my heart. WHY wasn't I ready earlier? Oh, Mr. Wolf! You are so dashing and handsome. I should have worn my white dress to start.......I see you got the pink rose boutineer.

[Aquamarine]

Thanks for the kudos!
I got my hair fixed and squeezed into this beautiful dress that FallGuy gave me. It's so nice to be able to wear these gorgeous dressess and not have to pay a dime for them!

That's so neat the way you did that, Tonk. I did click on it and it took me to the first part of the thread. My computer didn't like it though - it froze for some reason. :(
