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.

Yes, Tiramisu was mentioned in that movie. I have it memorized. It's one of my favorites. We also got Jonah's name from that movie (besides the Bible). LOL

Sleaveless.....that movie wasn't entirely useless. We got a wonderful name for our great little human being out of it. Nice to see you sleavie!

Jen, I just saw your post to me (had to hit the hay early last night). Those are so cute! I like the one in the bright blue dress. Okay, now...where do you find them and can you give me a lesson on how to post them? I sure do appreciate it.

Hey Priscilla! (Hope I got the right one.)
This is mark3681 from Indiana.

If this is the correct Pray4USA:

How have you been? Haven’t corresponded with you in way too long.
How are the kids and the critters?
Same old same out here. Working, paying the bills and trying to keep the old truck running.
Hope all is well.
And, don’t forget (which I’m sure you won’t), pray and vote for the survival of this great Republic!
Take care!
