I know I've said this before, but if you want to see the price of freedom, go to a VA hospital. Or Arlington. Or The Wall.

Sorry for the redundancy.

To our wonderful Mail Call Monday troops, I'm sorry I don't have more time to post individually with graphics and stuff....

Johnny: Thank you for your service, and thank your brothers. Your Dad must be very proud of his boys. RIP Johnny's Dad. I have the greatest admiration and respect for you and your family.

James KL: I think the special events such as the Rodeo and Beach Party are some of the best days at the Canteen for sheer fun. Of course, Monday Mail Call is my favorite! But you can always find respect and companionship, even on the most average of days here at the Canteen. To steal a great term from Joel, every day is CAN-Tastic!!! Thanks, James, for your email and all you do!!!

Charney, so good to see you again! The feeding frenzy was alot of fun. I didn't even spend too long here that day and I probably gained ten pounds! LOL! Take care and God Bless!

Joel, I love it when you turn up in Mail Call. YOU are CAN-Tastic, my friend! A mermaid to you! Wish I could post one...I owe you a pretty one....Thanks for your service in the Navy!!!

Michael, thanks for serving in the Army. I'm so glad the Z-Tar is spreading the word of the Canteen with their brothers in arms. We have come to make so many good friends in this way. Say hello to Z-Tar. We hope to see you ALL here again soon! God bless!

Mark, you are the trivia master! Maybe you should write the next trivia contest. Great job, we can always count on those Marines!!!! Thank you for serving, Mark.

Our wonderful Scully and those Pirates...you guys have tough exteriors but wonderfully loving and giving hearts. The perfect combination! Thanks for the sacrifices you are making for US!!! A mermaid to you as well!!!!!!!!!

I'm sorry I can't spend more time here right now. I'm going to miss next Monday's Mail Call but I will ask Snow Bunny to extend my best wishes along with the replies she sends back to the troops, for I will be thinking of you all that day. Love you ALL!!! GG

It's not my call. Heck, if it were, I'd let all your voices have a turn. I'd stay on the ground, but I'd let all of 'em fly it. : )

Johnny - USAF
I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your father. Even though he passed during a time of strife, I'm sure he left proud of you and your brothers. Thank you to all three of you for your service to our country.
Hearing that the Canteen is a hightlight in your life has me grinning ear-to-ear. I hope you come by often and 'set a spell' with us.

LOL! I hope you had a lot of Pepto Bismol on hand for the Junk Food Day. I'll bet you weren't the only one with a stomach ache, huh? Having tasted MRE's when I was married to a Marine years ago, I can understand why that day was such a hit with our troops. hehe!
Thank you for being there to defend our country.

Looks like my hubby is ready to go out to eat tonight so I'll be back in a bit to finish my e-mails and spend time at the Canteen. See y'all in a bit. :-))

That look like a really cool site! Thanx for the link. I'll check it out thoroughly later tonight. I also sent that to my hubby so he can check it out. He should enjoy it, too.

I'll see you when we get back.
