Hi Norm....where are your ports of call? If you are going on the Inside Passage, don't forget a raincoat. Could rain any time, any where.

Anchorage.....Sunrise: 4:42 AM Sunset: 11:14 PM

Fairbanks area

Thanks for helping honor our troops.

I’m trying to find the new battery for my Mom’s phone. I found the one for my old phone, but no dice finding the other one. GRRR! Her phone is dead and I don’t want her without one at all times.

Why isn’t it with mine? Where could it be? Any ideas?

SOUP FOR THE TROOPS

WELCOME TO THE

(where our troops, allies and their families can refresh themselves)

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

~ Today...Sunny. Hot. High 91F. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph.
(also says 0% chance of rain).

~ Tonight...Generally clear. Low 67F. Winds SSW at 5 to 10 mph.

Making Z Zoup
A cup of this...a teaspoon of that...

In Air Force slang, a "laundry bag" is a parachute.
(I'm sure our AF people can confirm this?)

The world's windiest place
is reputed to be Commonwealth Bay,
George V Coast, Antarctica,
where wind speeds of 200 miles per hour
have been recorded.

In 625 B.C., metal coins were introduced in Greece.
They replaced grain — usually barley —
as the medium of exchange.
Stamped with a likeness of an ear of wheat,
the new coins were lighter and easier to transport than grain,
and did not get moldy.

Jean Marie Butler was the first woman graduate
from the United States Coast Guard Academy in 1980.
She also was the first woman to graduate
from any U.S. service academy.

Eighty percent of the world's rose species come from Asia.
(I watched a Nature special last night
about the Himalayas, where they described
the tropical forest area as being the origin
of many of our species of flowers, etc.)

The FR Canteen is ALWAYS

Come in, sit down.
Grab a cup of joe, or tasty tea.
Mingle a bit, chat with the troops
or family member.
There's always plenty of conversation, silliness,
and plain old BS in the FR Canteen.

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.
