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.

Thank God and Delta you're gone!

LOL!

FREEDOM!!!

Oh what a happy, happy day
When I don't hear your name
I'm delirious if you may
Because I am free again!

I counted the hours like a bell
I cried for help to my best friend
My life with you was a living hell
Without time at the Canteen to spend.

I really can not thank you
For getting in my life and love
For meddling in my affairs
And gossiping all the above.

Please don't come back again,
I'll remember you forever
Not here or in another place,
I couldn't think of us together.

Thankyou all for the wonderful words yesterday and the posts on the thread dedicated to Sgt 1st Class Peter P. Tycz II.

You all say Thankyou to me, I say no thankyou is neccessary. It was an Honor to do what I did. It was the only way I could think of expressing my Thanks for all that SFC Tycz did for our Freedom

Yesterday was a sad day, I visited his final resting place alone, said a prayer of Thanks and gave him a final Salute. I didn't want to be there while Pataki and the rest of the politicans were there.

I am making a Flag to put there and on the pole I am writing Thank You from FreeRepublic.com

Take care and God Bless
