USO Canteen FReeper Style...Salutes One of Our Own....June 25,2002
FRiends of the USO Canteen FReeper Style and Snow Bunny

Posted on 06/25/2002 2:31:57 AM PDT by Snow Bunny


Today at the USO Canteen FReeper Style is a very special day. We have all heard that once a Marine always a Marine and that is more true than naught.

There is no finer example of a Marine and a FReeper than LadyX . Her travels in life and into the lives of others has been numerous. Today join us in celebrating LadyX and her 50 years as a Marine.

Many of you have written to me of your appreciation for knowing LadyX and how today marks 50 years since she became a Marine. This is surprise to LadyX and OUR thank to you LadyX, for serving our country and for being a wonderful FReeper and friend.

Her service was during the Korean Conflict in the United States Marine Corps, instructing Women Marine recruits in classroom subjects, and later as a military wife.

With the Marine Corps at its greatest buildup then, for Korean combat, Women Marines freed men for their primary role - to protect our Republic and its ideals.


This is one of my favorite posts that LadyX made.
I saved it and cherish her words.

I couldn't miss the opportunity to join in the Canteen's salute to one of America's finest Marines. Thank you for your service to our country and for all the stories you share of your experiences. My life is richer for having you as my FRiend! God bless you.

Mom (LadyX) asked me to explain the picture of me in Post #206. That's actually a recent photograph. I'm wearing a US Public Health Service uniform for my Disaster Medical Assistance Team (DMAT). She also wanted me to tell you about the passage of important legislation signed recently by President Bush. HR3448, among other things, affords personnel serving on DMATs uniformed service status and affords us the same protections as reservists with regard to employment and reemployment rights. We're happy about that because there have been instances where DMAT members have lost their jobs at home while deployed to a disaster. DMATs are part of the National Disaster Medical System (NDMS) under the Office of Preparedness, US Public Health System (http://ndms.dhhs.gov/NDMS/About_Teams/about_teams.html)

I've created a couple of websites as well at:

See, there's no reason to go to the internet to find "interesting" photos when all you need is right here under your nose!

SIGNS YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE SEEN

At an Optometrist's Office
"If you don't see what your looking for you've come to
the right place."

At a tire shop in Milwaukee:
"Invite us to your next blowout."

On a fence:
"Salesmen welcome, dog food is expensive."

In a Podiatrist's office:
"Time wounds all heels."

In the front yard of a funeral home:
"Drive carefully, we'll wait."

Outside a Muffler Shop:
"No appointment necessary, we'll hear you coming."

Billboard on the side of the road:
"Keep your eyes on the road and stop reading these signs."
