The USO Canteen FReeper Style
Delivering a Touch of Home

.

.

A Touch of Home

.


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.

Snow Bunny

.



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.


Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields. 

John McCrae 

.

The USO Canteen Honors FReepers
who have served, or are now serving their country.

.

You may have a loved one who has served in the past.
We at the FReeper USO Canteen would like to honor each and every one.

Thank you for serving Zbigniew !

A great tribute to your Father, SAM. Will you give this to both your parents for being heros and for bringing you to America.

GROANER Quiz!

A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?

A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?

There are two plastic jugs filled with water. How could you put all of this water into a barrel, without using the jugs or any dividers, and still tell which water came from which jug?

What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?

Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday?

This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.

Answers: if AND when the "voices" give them to me...........

Your voices talked to me...

I just polled them:

98% said "No, they didn't talk to you"

1% was undecided

1% abstained from voting.........

Hi!
Had a nice day off!
Slept till 10, then went and got my check.
Ran some errands and then went by the base.
No boats were going out so I just hung around a little.
Just got home.
*HUG*
