A GREAT Tribute to an Outstanding Marine - LANCE CORPORAL JEDH C. BARKER, USMC.

I’m not sure if I’ve shared this with you before, but my twin brother joined the USMC one month before I joined the Navy. I have deep respect for any Marine.

When I was going to Diving School in Subic Bay, PI, we had 13 Recon Marines (enlisted) and two Marine Officers attending the SCUBA portion of our class. What a GREAT bunch of guys. After the initial Squid and Jarhead names were exchanged, we all became close friends during that four week period.

Salute to LANCE CORPORAL JEDH C. BARKER, US Marine Corps.

Good evening, Dave...((HUGS))...I do know about you and your twin Marine. d:o) I’m sure some lively “discussions” ensued.

Thanks for sharing your experiences during the SCUBA part of Diving School.

Good evening/morning, wjcsux. ((HUGS)) If only the schools cared enough to teach them. Parents have a tremendous responsibility to make sure their kids know about these heroes.

Good morning, Canteen.

Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

THANK YOU for all you do.

Thank you, Star, for preparing the Canteen for today’s activities.
KUDOS and thank you go out to Jedh Colby Barker for his service and sacrifice.
May he Rest in Peace
He's the perfect main ingredient for many war movies.

DC Metroland weather report

~ Today... Showers likely.
Highs in the upper 70s. Southeast winds 5 to 10 mph.
Chance of rain 70 percent.

~ Tonight... Mostly cloudy with a 20 percent chance of showers.
Lows in the mid 60s. Southeast winds around 5 mph.

Ok, it's Monday
Weekend went by way too fast.
We're getting much needed rain
but we'll be getting temps in the 90s this week.
Hoping it passes quickly though.

I've caught up on my back log
so I'm hoping this week will be an easier ride.

I need to make my rounds
before everyone shows up.
But, you stay right where you are. Cause...............I'll be bock!

The FR Canteen is

Come in and sit for a while.
There's always plenty of coffee, tea,
pancakes, conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS

REMEMBER THEM

DEFENDERS OF FREEDOM

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allied military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

Good morning to everyone at the Canteen. Parts of our area were under storm warnings yesterday.
We have a chance of rain later today and sure need some. Looks like another mid 90º day for us.
