Greetings to all at the Canteen!

To all our military men and women, past and present,

THANK YOU
for your service!

Howdy, Kathy.

I hope your day’s been a good one. Did you get all your homework finished last night so you could chill for a couple of days?

[PROCON]

Hiya radu!

I was very happy that my sister came into town this weekend and we hung out yesterday and today before she left. Good times, shared good memories and even took her and son out to the gun range for some fun! She enjoyed herself and brought her own arsenal of guns to shoot.

Too much fun!

Your weekend going OK?

[radu]

Tears flow.
Very moving images.

Howdy there, PRO!

Still trying to see through leaky eyes after seeing the images you posted.

I saw last night that you had a grand time yesterday. Glad nothing happened to postpone your sister’s visit and that you’ve been able to have some fun times together.

The weekend’s gone well so far. Spent several hours at the museum yesterday cleaning more uniforms. Had a lot of young folks stop in throughout the day to check out the place.

Laid low today since the ol’ back isn’t too happy. Got a little grab in it as I carried an armload of cleaned and bagged uniforms upstairs. It’s reminding me now not to carry so many at once. Sux gettin’ old. LOL!

U S Military Academy~Mansions Of The Lord

Mansions Of The Lord
Ronan Tynan

To fallen soldiers let us sing
Where no rockets fly nor bullets wing
Our broken brothers let us bring
To the Mansions of the Lord

No more bleeding, no more fight
No prayers pleading through the night
Just divine embrace, eternal light
To the Mansions of the Lord.

Where no mothers cry and no children weep
We will stand and guard though the angels sleep
Through the ages safely keep
The Mansions of the Lord.

NEVER FORGET THEM!

[MS.BEHAVIN]

Remember the Fallen!

We never forget them!

Good evening, Pro....Memorial Day is upon us.

Remembering those who have given their all to keep us free.

[radu]

Howdy do, Conor! *HUGZ*

I hope you’ve had a wonderful weekend and not been flooded by rainfall. I saw on TV a few minutes ago that some areas up there were flooded badly. :-(

[Kathy in Alaska]

Late, but.........

Permission Granted!

[MS.BEHAVIN]

No, ‘Du.
That was taken at the Funeral of Corey Dan.
He was killed in March of 2006.
The Westboro Baptist Church threatened to disrupt his funeral.
That pic was the response they got from the PGR and the people of Maine.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

“(since it posed twice. hee!)”
Nope!
It was two different pics of the same event!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, my.....we remember!

We did have a slight cool down over the weekend so the temps weren't too scorching.
