If you know a Veteran, someone in your family, friend of the family, neighbor, who served their country, take a brief moment of your day to thank them. Thank them for the sacrifice they made for the better good of their country.
We at Free Republic, and the USO Canteen FReeper Style, are thankful for every service member in our military, who has served our great nation.
So, to the men and women who answered the call, in both times of war and peace, thank you.

Message from Snow Bunny to all those who visit the Canteen.
This is how I think of the USO Canteen Freeper Style. It is like a cottage down a road, a place where a weary veteran can spend the night.
Since it opened, it is magical how so many Freepers who post here, feel it too. It has been so dear how the Freepers kept making it a cottage - a home-type of place that had a huge living room for them to visit in and a dance floor, a library, etc.
Many Veterans have written to me, saying that the Canteen is like home to them for the first time since they served.
This is your Canteen - a respite from our busy and sometimes troubling world. Make yourself at home.

To: SassyMom
All of us stumble every day Sassy. It's part of being human. But with Jesus by our side we stumble less often and we don't fall as hard or as far. And, if we should happen to fall hard, He is still there to pick us up when we decide to reach up to Him. The meeting was "out of this world" so to speak. We had 4 souls who decided for Christ. I think it was the best camp meeting we have had since I've been going (11 yrs). Thanks for asking.

Cote I love your post! So beautiful and quoting Mark 10:13,14 soooo perfect too. Thank you for this post and the other one about this too.
To: SassyMom
I've got to tell you the story the evangelist told for the truth. He said he was at a school (probably before prayer was outlawed) and the teacher asked one little boy to lead the class in prayer. So he started off: "Dear Lord, please make the Methodists the church they ought to be. And make the Baptists a shining light on a hill. And Lord, make the Presbyterians......make the Presbyterians.....(he reached behind him and tugged at the pants of the boy behind him and whispered)..you pray, I don't know what to do with the Presbyterians."
