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.

That's like the wasp that crawled up Jack's pant leg in church. That bugger stung him from stem to stern.

OWWWWW, now THAT would HURT!

He was afraid to jump up and down. People might think he was "in the Spirit". He was just a youth at the time. The wasp was headed for his nether parts so he mashed it as it stung him for the last time.

I have no idea, I think from the way FG has been talking he really wants up near Portland someplace. I am a country girl but he has a lot of city boy in him.

I could go for a cabin in the woods, or an old barn fixed up. Grow lots of lavender and climbing roses and have wild over grown gardens around the place.

I will take my lap top and every night check in with the Canteen.I will be going through withdrawls otherwise. hahahahaaha
