"It is a tremendous feeling when a member of our military stops by to say 'Thank You'. It also gives us a chance to say 'No, Thank You!'"

Okay, now I'm getting a little choked up...better go to bed. Thank you again for standing tall.

She is with the Aviation Brigade, 40th Infantry Division...(snip)...
She told us the peaceniks flip her off as she drives by and if she has to stop on
their corner, they pound on her car or throw something at her. Real fine Americans, aren't they?

Funny how leftists/"pacifists" come unglued when they enounter a REAL "strong woman".

Oh well, no different than their response to Lady Margaret Thatcher,
Jean Kilpatrick, or such other sane bearers of two X-chromsomes.

If the soldier-lady comes back on a later occassion, shake her hand and thank her
for me as well.

Great Freep Fesno, CA!!!!!!!! You are an inspiration to us all!!!!

A freeper in Colorado asked a question when he finally noticed we were doing our weekly freep. Following is his question and my reply. It is time for the fence sitters and cyber warriors to face the enemy of our beloved nation!

OK, folks. How come I'm just now finding out about this?!?!

Very good question Randall. I asked myself the same question back in the beginning of June. Freeper CardCarryingMember.VastRightWC had informed through an email that this had been going on since right after 9/11/01. Why didn't I know about this sooner? I asked myself the same question. When I decided to get involved he reminded me that he had told me a month earlier. I checked and sure enough he had.

So why did I think that I had not been informed of it? It was a matter of priorities. Other issues had clouded my vision and blocked me from seeing what was right in front of me. This whole War on Terrorism is enormous and painfully overwhelming. We run around wondering how can we be effective? What can we do to make a difference?

I still don't know if protesting the anti american anti war protesters is the most effective use of my time. Perhaps I will never know, but one thing I do know is that I and a handful of others are 'doing something' besides sitting around wondering what we can do.

The bigger question and one of much more importance is now that you have 'found out about this', what are you going to do about it? It is easier for me to understand and overlook the blind sheeple and wonder when will they wake up and see the light than it is to wonder why those who see and do nothing, well, do nothing.

Don't wait for someone else to get involved! Here is a link Operation Infinite Freep: Know your Enemy . Find out who these folks are and what they are up to in a neighborhood near you, gather some like minded individuals and face them, or join us at our weekly gathering.

We are so proud of the job you are doing every week in honoring our troops and standing up for what is right in this great United States of America. And having one of our soldiers stop and thank you must give you a great sense of pride in the job you are doing. Thank you very much.
