(remove your caps please!)

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hail'd at the twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watch'd, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof thro' the night that our flag was still there.
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore dimly seen thro' the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?

Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream:
'T is the star-spangled banner: O, long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

O, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand,
Between their lov'd homes and the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us as a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

The Canteen Jukeboxes
 

 

Good evening everyone!!
 

Welcome to another weekend of music for our Troops, Veterans, and their families!
Last week we began bringing you the Canteen Jukeboxes!
Many of you liked them, but many of you were still confused about what to do.
We will go over everything again and we hope to keep working out any issues for the future.

The MP3 Flash Jukebox was created by JEROENWIJERING.COM

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!!

Below are just a few of the Canteen Jukeboxes we have tonight!
Look for more throughout the thread!
If you have any questions, please FReepmail us and ask!

You can request music for our Troops on the thread, via FReepmail, or email us at musicrequests4u@gmail.com

For this weekend only:

Please ping one of the Canteen Deejays for any music requests!
Also, ping MoJo2001 or Kathy In Alaska to be added/removed from the Canteen Music Ping List!!

The Canteen Jukeboxes

1. If you'd like to listen to the Jukeboxes and surf the Canteen or FR, just hold the Control key down and then hit the letter N on your keyboard. That will open another window. This will allow you to listen and FReep at the same time. How convenient, huh?

2. Many of the jukeboxes will not automatically start. You will have to double click a song to start the jukebox. Also, not all music is appropriate for children.

3. We have also removed the links on the jukeboxes that take you to the jukebox creators page. We know a few of you were disturbed by the playlist.
However, we do ask that you take a chance one of these days to check out his site.
You can do so here. He created a fabulous player!!

4. As we experiment with the jukeboxes, we'll try to figure out how to control the scrolling. There may not be a solution, but hopefully you will get used to it.

5. Many of the Canteen Deejays are still experimenting with the jukeboxes. Please be patient.

6. The Canteen Jukeboxes offer different genres. If you don't find it at the Top of the Thread, you can most certainly find them throughout the thread.
For example, if you are looking for Hard Rock/Heavy Metal/Alternative...make sure to locate AZAmericonnie.

7. If you have a suggestion for a *themed* jukebox, please let one of our Canteen Deejays know about it. We might be able to feature it the next week.

 

Just to get you started!

Yeah finally. So I'm posting more often before I move, and lose internet and perhaps start "Jonesing". Sort of getting it out of my system I guess.

Greetings One and All, time for the Friday Flyby. Contining with last weekends them tonight we again feature from the Grumman Iron Works the F8F Bearcat. The Bearcat was the last of Grumman's piston engined fighters. Using a more powerfull version of the ol reilable Pratt & Whitney R-2800 engine and wieghing in over 2000 pounds less than the Hellcat the Bearcat was one scootin fighter.

A modified Bearcat also holds the recored for the worlds fastest piston powered aircraft at 528.33mph. Now thats movin :-)

Just over 1200 F8Fs were built and the Bearcat also served with the French Armee de Aire and the Roayl Thai Airforce. About 10 F8F are still flying.

On with the Pics

The usual head on pic :-)

A VERY nice F8F owned by Howard Perdue makes a flyby for the camera ship.

This Bearcat is on the European Airshow circuit IIRC.

A pic from the late 1940s I think, the legend on the nose reads "Beetle Bomb". This plane was used in the early Blue Angles shows. It was suppose to be an "Enemy Aircraft". Trgaically the plane crashed while attempting to do a roll after take off in April of 1950.

The CAFs Bearcat overflys the USS Carl Vinson and The USS Inchon, I think.

A Bearcat peeling off after some inaginary unsuspecting quarry.

Y'all have a great weekend.

And remember, if a pig had wings it would be a pigeon!!!

Regards

[Kathy in Alaska]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!! I wonder who she's coming to visit? Good evening, Grammie.

[Brad’s Gramma]

It took three times! Geez.

THAT had to be frustrating!!!! But!!! YOU ARE GOING! :)

[Army Air Corps]

I actually have a couple of minutes to spare.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Es...I've been missing you.....did you need your umbrella today? ((HUGS))
