Nearly 180 years after President John Adams commissioned this Navy base on the strategic shores of Pensacola Bay to help protect the Gulf of Mexico, the air station where Navy aviators earn their wings is bruised and broken. All 2,000 buildings on the base, including 577 homes, are believed to have been damaged.

But no one was injured. "That's the best news we had.."

Ping.

These sailors, airmen, soldiers and all the retired armed forces people who live in the area deserve our support and encouragement.

Remember how the MSM, ESPECIALLY SeeBS, called Florida for Gore BEFORE the polls closed in 2000, costing W an estimated 10,000 votes and Bore an estimated 6,000.
If anybody knows anybody who knows somebody in the Florida panhandle,
ENCOURAGE THEM AND THEIR NEIGHBORS TO VOTE NOMATTER IF THE MSM OR ANYBODY CALLS FLORIDA EARLY FOR EITHER BUSH OR KERRY even if they're still struggling to put their lives back together.

Any word on the state of the Naval Hospital?

(I always knew President & Founding Father John Adams was smart and fore-sighted, but I had no idea he was so forward looking as to establish a Naval Air Station about 100 years before Naval Aviation became a reality.)

Thanks for the Salvation Army donation link.

Any info on how the USS Alabama Memorial & related ships in Mobile Bay faired?

No fear... the home of the Blue Angels is Freerepublic. As a peaceful people, we establish a new home and a new name for our proud warriors of information. We are the brave and strong. The TANG documents are cryptocode for what will be happening in the future. the destruction of the Navel Station in ^Pense_cola is linked to the Civil War. How? Pen (write) se(a|e) (eye) Cola (Coca cola is in Atlanta) - Sherman's march to the sea .. AND OH WICKED COOL! I just had an 'idear' for the coolest. program. ever for freerepublic - it scans the body of a post for keywords we know the meaning of and adds the keywords.. saves reading a bunch of stuff... set up scans with email alerts.. blackberry messages with articles of interest as soon as they are posted... I think the new blackberries have a web brower too.. Cool cool cool - anyone interested in this, let me know... I'm a perl hacker and this should be CAKE! Automatic HTML markup of the subscripts and super scripts... Cool beans!!!

Emergency - assignation plot The careful symmetry of Barrancas National Cemetery, where graves date to the Civil War and more than 30,000 veterans are buried, is disrupted by fallen oaks.

Back in the '90's the Clinton administration decided to move the Aviation Technical schools from Memphis to P'cola to save money. Smart move.
