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.

Honest it is nothing that I do.I would be sitting her posting to myself , it truly does take everyone chipping in and I thank the Lord each day for the response.

I promise only to surprise you once every 50 years.heh heh

So get ready for the 100 year celebration...it is going to be a biggie, but I probably will be in a walker and hearing aids and thicker contact lenses and white hair.hahahaha

Sure do luv you LadyX. You are an example to all of us in so many ways.

Hi redhead, great to see you.I actually worked outside early this morning on my garden.You motivated me with your roses.

I trimed back some of mine that are climbers and growing out instead of up up and away. hahahaa

Once it is 9 in the morning it starts to get way to hot to work outside. Even the birds only use the birdbath in the mornings.
