A Few of FR's Finest.....
......Every Day

FR is a Treasure Trove of talented, compassionate, patriotic, wonderful people who gather every day to discuss the latest news and issues;  salute
and support our military and our leaders;  tell a few jokes;  learn a new
word;  write poetry;  pray for those in need;  and congratulate those who
are deserving. Thank you, Jim Robinson, for giving us the vehicle in which
we can express ourselves.

Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.  I
can remember lurking when there were only a few regulars who posted, and now there are over 60,000 who have registered for posting privileges. The forum is read daily by tens of thousands
of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.

A Few of FR's Finest November 11, 2001

So many people have written me since my original Veteran's Day Tribute, asking how they, or a loved one, could be included in that tribute. Since I can no longer add the photos to the body of the thread, I've been including them in additional posts as I received enough to make another collage.

Still that doesn't seem to be enough. I think there's never been a better nor more appropriate time to keep the faces of our own Veterans and Active Military in front of FReepers--every day! That's why I wanted to do yet another Daily Thread .....ABOUT FReepers .....and FOR FReepers. But not only about our Military FReepers; for all FReepers! Wouldn't it be nice to get to know a few of the other FReepers as well? That's why, in addition to seeing FR's Finest Military Personnel every day, I thought it might be fun to feature a different FReeper (or FReepers) each day. If you would like to be pictured, or know someone who would, please FReepmail me and we'll turn the spotlight - on YOU - for the day!

And do let me know if you'd like your picture added to the groups of Veterans/Active Military below. I will keep this page updated, and continue to add them to the comment section of the original Veteran's Day thread as well.

Thought we'd do something a little different today.  Below are some photos that were taken by dutchess and Mr. dutchess at the March for Justice in Washington, D.C. on October 31, 1998. Now,  the thing is, she had no names for the photos,  and that's where YOU come in!  Do you know any of them?  Can you put a name to any of the faces?  They are NEAT signs, aren't they?!

So do you know any of them? We'll call them - top:  PHOTO 1;  middle:  PHOTO 2A (left) and PHOTO 2B (right);  and bottom:   PHOTO 3.  I know that is Matt Drudge in PHOTO 3 on the left, but do not know who he's talking to.  Do you?!

To All of You Who Attended the March for Justice:

THANK YOU FOR LETTING YOUR VOICES BE HEARD
FOR THOSE OF US WHO COULD NOT BE THERE!

I took this photo near Sonora, Texas, on I-10, where the interstate cut through this mountain. The flag, flying so high above us, was just overwhelmingly beautiful!

[Billie]

Good morning, FReeper FRiends. Today, I'm especially calling all FReepers who went to the March for Justice in Washington D.C. in 1998.

Were you there? Know someone who was? Maybe you know today's Finest FReepers.

[g'nad]

Were you there?

I'm sorry I wasn't...I was still at Camp Lejeune NC... I'm sorry to have missed that great event...

G'mornin' Darlin, been off the net for a while...the usual weekend with my kids, scoutin' fer bow season, gettin' together with Marine buddies...full day yesterday, just couldn't here...sorry...

[Billie]

Morning, Gail - good to see you again.

Doug, once again, I enjoyed 'your day' yesterday! Thanks for being one of FR's biggest supporters for all these years, laughs and all! Hope you'll drop in as often as you can! :)

[Taxman]

The March for Justice was my "initiation" into FRee Republic. There, exposed for all to see, was a group of people who were proud to stand for America, and who were willing to sacrifice their time and treasure to make the event such a success.

Subsequent to that event, which I would call a "defining moment" in my life, I have found a cyber home populated with [mostly] like-minded Real Americans.

I am proud to be a FReeper. We must continue to work together, in the spirit of The March for Justice, to Take America Back!

[Aquamarine]

I love your flag Billie. Did you see lodwicks gorgeous sunrise picture? It looks like Texas.

[g'nad]

Starts in October...that's why I'm scoutin' now...(actually, I never stopped scouting since Spring Gobbler season...)

You're still the one.

Kewl!!!

[Bahbah]

Morning, Billie. The Lying King poster is great. Wish I had been there.

[Mudboy Slim]

"I know that is Matt Drudge in PHOTO 3 on the left, but do not know who he's talking to. Do you?!"

Yeah Billie, that there's John F. Kennedy...MUD

[Mudboy Slim]

"Wish I had been there."

FReegards, Mud. That would be great. If it comes off, I hope it's not Oct 23-26.
