SOUP FOR THE TROOPS

WELCOME TO

Good morning, Everyone.
Good morning to our

Military, our Allies, and their families.

Thank you, Ma, for preparing the Canteen for today's activities

DC METROLAND WEATHER

Making Z Zoup
A pinch of this...a dash of that...

In the opening procession of the Olympics,
the team representing the host nation always marches last.

A claque is a group of people hired to applaud an act or performer.

The basilica was Pompeii's largest building
and was used for legal and commercial business.
In the fourth century, this style of building
was adopted by the newly legal Christian religion.
It became the standard floor plan
for the churches, or "basilicas," of medieval Europe.

Pinstripes were added to New York Yankee jerseys in 1912,
and then shelved for two seasons. They were re-introduced in 1915.

I'm hoping one of our many military guyz/galz will tell me
the difference between "returnee" and "...remains returned."

I've got to post and run.
Be back later to check pings.
But, you stay right where you are.
Keep the troops entertained and the Canteen clean...
Cause...if you don't...I'll tell Ma!

REMEMBER THEM
