Canteener Playlist: LUV W What was the first song you remember hearing on the radio? 1.A song called "Sentimental Journey" by Doris Day that I would sing along with and made my Mom cry as she was taking my Dad back to the train station when he was going into the Army. What was the first album/cassette/CD did you purchase? 2. The first album I bought was when I was a really little girl of Bozo the Clown--no music, but I loved the story. How would you describe your musical preferences? 3. Rock and easy listening, some country--not "hard" country, some alternative--or whatever artists like Enya are listed under. ------------------------------------------- LUV W is not only a proud supporter of our military, but also the proud mother of one of our brave heroes serving. As a matter of fact, he returned home last week. In addition to being a fantastic mother and wife, she also proudly entertains our Troops on a daily basis. She happens to make some very beautiful tables that she's been sharing with all of us. Thank you for your time, talents, and energy LUV W. We greatly appreciate it!! |

What does the Canteen Music Dedication mean to you? 5. The Canteen Dedication is a chance for me to give a little entertainment to our troops who are so far away and who might get a chance to stop by the Canteen for a little R&R. It's a chance for me to do something for them because they do so much for me! |

Canteener Playlist: EsmeraldaA
1.-The first song I remember (outside children programming?) is something from Bobby Darin(my older sisters loved the guy), I think it was *Splish Splash*.
2.-My first album was The Beatles *Please Please Me* It was a birthday present though.
3.-My preferences are very eclectic, From Classical to Hip Hop only skipping (ducking for rotten food here) Country music. [Drumbo is trying to change that, LOL] --------------------------------- Many of our Troops have had the opportunity to see our newest Canteen family member. Esmeralda is a beautiful woman that thoroughly enjoys reading, chatting with her friends online and elsewhere, her beautiful Alexis, and music. She brings to the Canteen energy, fun, and enthusiasm.

A mother knelt upon her knees here next to her son's bed. She clasped her small, delicate hands together. Then, raising her head, her eyes filled With tears that stained her cheeks, She began to pray this prayer:
"I pray to Thee my Lord. See my son, Lord? He has been taken Oh, so far away from our home. He's gone to give his life For his America. He's fighting for freedom and peace, This son of mine, whom once I cradled As a small baby next to my heart -- This little boy of mine, Who has grown now into a man.
"The day he left I saw my boy Standing oh, so tall and strong -- No fear did I see in his eyes As he whispered his goodbyes. 'Don't cry mama, I will be home soon,' He said, holding me silently in his arms. We both knew this was perhaps for the last time. Please, Lord hear this mother's heart, Pleading, begging You.
"Dear God, hold him in the palm of Your hand Until he's home safely once again. He's so brave Lord, I am oh, so proud of my son. But you see, I'm missing him so much now. I am frightened of losing him forever. Yet, in my heart I know What he's doing is right. For it's our America, our beliefs in freedom That he's gone to fight for.
Alongside all our American mothers, Sons, daughters and fathers, We are giving them freely, Lord, From the deepest part of our hearts, As we are holding tight to that American Dream That our country and all countries Be free of terrorism, oppressions and wars, So that one day we may all live in peace."
"Yes Lord," she prayed. "I understand. I know why my son had to go Please, for me, Lord, Touch his heart With the warmth of my love this night. Let him know His mother's holding him close In her thoughts and in her prayers And as he sleeps tonight, Let my mother's love fill his dreams. Tell him I'm keeping him safe In that special place That all mother's keep their children In the deepest core of our hearts. Give me a sign, Lord, That he's alive and that he's ok For this is all I ask, Dear God, That you have heard This mother's prayer. Amen."
She rose from her knees, Walked to her bedroom window. She looked up at the silent, star-filled night. "My son, my son, I love you," she wept. Then suddenly, a soft breeze Flowed gently through her window Touching her face and drying her tears. She heard an angelic voice softly whisper, "Look there, above -- do you not see?" As she raised her eyes A falling star was Streaming across the blacked night's sky. She felt a sudden loving warmth That filled her very soul. And she knew then God was holding him safely In the palm of His hand.
She whispered, "Thank You."
Deus vobiscum

Aids to Navigation Task Force
U.S. Coast Guard
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Members of the Sector Jacksonville Aids to Navigation Team are deploying to be a part of the Coast Guard Seventh District Aids to Navigation Task Force and will be available to the media to discuss their role in the response to Hurricane Katrina Friday at 6:45 a.m.
The Jacksonville Aids to Navigation Team will be sending three people and one boat to be part of the Aids to Navigation Task Force. Coast Guardsmen from Charleston, S.C., St. Petersburg, Fla., Miami, Fort Pierce, Fla., Tybee Island, S.C., and Georgetown, S.C., are all rendezvousing at Sector Jacksonville before heading to the areas affected by the hurricane.
The Aids to Navigation Task Force is comprised of 21 personnel from Aids to Navigation Teams throughout the Seventh Coast Guard District, as well as the crews of Coast Guard cutters Joshua Appleby and Oak, who will help restore aids to navigation in affected waterways. Restoration of these aids is a critical step in the process of opening waterways and seaports to vessel traffic.
The task force is traveling in five recreational vehicles and bringing with them six, trailerable aids-to-navigation boats and as much equipment as they can pack into their vehicles.
The Coast Guard Sector Jacksonville Buoy Depot has loaded trucks with over 229,000 pounds of buoys, chain and sinkers to head to St. Petersburg, Fla., where they will be shipped to the areas affected by Katrina. Restoring the aids to navigation in the disaster area is a critical step in the process of opening waterways and seaports to vessel traffic.
The Coast Guard cutter Joshua Appleby, homeported in St. Petersburg, Fla., and the cutter Oak, homeported in Charleston, S.C., are also part of the task force and are taking on supplies at Coast Guard Sector St. Petersburg with a scheduled departure date of Sept. 1. These cutters will set buoys marking navigable channels for vessel traffic.
