Welcome to the FReeper Canteen! We're honored to have you with us for another weekend of fun, music, and amusement. We hope that you enjoy the selections provided at the top of the thread and throughout the entire thread. If you love our military, currently or served in the past, we hope you feel comfortable. Thank you for your service to our country. To our allies, thank you for all you do by standing with us!!

Until you return home, we're here!!
|
| How this works! 1. Selections are provided for the enjoyment of our Troops, Veterans, Allies, and their family members. They're priority numero uno! Got it? 2. You can request music via the thread by pinging laurenmarlowe. She does this for free because she doesn't know any better. However, please be patient and treat her well and she'll load up your request for our Troops. Thanks! 3. If you are just a lurker and not a member of FR, you are welcome to send us requests via email at musicrequests4u@gmail.com . Please put *Music Request* in the subject line. If we don't get back to you right away, please don't fret. We'll get there. These threads tend to fly! If you're a FReeper, ping laurenmarlowe or do it via FReepmail. Please help us free up the email for lurkers! 4. Not all music will be appropriate for kids. We welcome families to enjoy the music, but the ULTIMATE RESPONSIBILITY lies with you and not us. If you click on something and are offended, that's on you. We try to provide ample warning, but it's your mouse and decision. 5. Want to tick us off quickly? Hotlink our music! That is an absolute no-no! This is provided free of charge to our Troops, Veterans, Allies, and their families. Hotlinking takes bandwidth that could be given to them. Jukeboxes at the Canteen are created through this program! Be careful! The music might be offensive on the site!

Jukeboxes!
Have a safe and fun Labor Day Weekend!
*If you are having issues with the jukeboxes, the servers might be slow due to a variety of reasons. We apologize for the inconvenience. Also, all of the jukeboxes will open in a new window. Double click on a song to begin the jukebox!

World Music Jukeboxes
*Music from around the world!
This section highlights music from other countries and cultures. We hope it expands your listening horizon. If not, just skip to another section. Next week--we'll find music with swear words from around the world. This way we can all be bad and Ma won't know any better. Just kidding--sort of! Hehe! |

Time for the Saturday Sortie. A few more paintings by Stan Stokes from the "Modern" era.
A Brief note about Mr Stokes...
With more than 37 years as a full time artist, Stan has produced literally hundreds of paintings documenting historical events, people and places. He researches his subjects to assure the accuracy of the smallest detail to preserve its relationship in time. His work hangs in two presidential libraries.
Commissioned by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, CA, his 12 foot by 120 foot mural of the "History of the Flying White House" is on permanent display in the new Air Force One Pavilion. In addition, Stan's painting of the "U.S.S. Ronald Reagan" is hanging in the Legacy Room of the library. So on with the pics...
First up "First Flight of the Blackbird"
Stan Stokes depiction on the first flight of Kelly Johnsons masterpiece.
Next Up "Cold War Encounter"...
The F-106 was often referred to as the Cadillac of the Century Series, in reference to the series of F-100 USAF fighters dating back to the F-100. In Stan Stokes painting, appropriately entitled Cold War Encounter, a Russian Tupolev Bear Bomber tests US air defenses over Alaska. An F-106 from the Air Defense Command scrambles to intercept the unwelcome intruder. The Bear is no match for the Delta Dart, and takes a heading to leave US airspace.
Third in our Series tonite "Fallen Eagle" Mr Stokes tribute to Everett Alvarez...
Lt.(jg) Everett Alvarez would become the first pilot shot down and captured over North Vietnam. It would be eight-and-one-half years later that Alvarez would be released, having endured hardships which would have broken anyone of less than the highest faith and courage. Everett Alvarez retired from the Navy in 1980, and was later a Deputy Director of the Peace Corps, and Deputy Director of the Veterans Administration.
Next up "In the Talons of Eagles"
On the morning of January 17, 1991 a USAF strike force comprised of F-16s, F-15s, F-4G Wild Weasels, and EF-111s left its airbase at Tabuk and headed for their target area the Al Taqaddum Airfield. Leading a group of eight F-15 Eagles on this mission was USMC Capt. Charles Magill, who was on exchange with the Air Force. On their way to the target area the F-15s from the 58th Tactical Fighter Squadron of the 33rd Tactical Fighter Wing received information from an E-3 AWACS aircraft than a pair of Iraqi Mig-29s were just south of the intended target area. When the Migs turned and became a threat to the task force, Captain Magill split his flight into two four aircraft formations. As he took his flight towards the Migs, the other four F-15s continued to sweep the area for other bogies. As the two Migs turned back into them at a low altitude, Magill fired two AIM-7M Sparrows from a higher altitude at his target. Magill bagged one of the Migs while the second was downed by Captain Rhory Dreger.
Fifth in tonites adventure is "The Killer Bs"
With a little luck I will get to see the B-2 Spirit in person in two weeks, hope hope hope!
Last is "Outward Bound"
A depiction of a Northwest Airlines Boeing Stratocruiser as it head out over Manhattan.
Well that is it for tonite folks have a great weekend and we will see you next week.
Regards
