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!

Carlos Santana was born July 20,1947, in Autlan de Navarro, Mexico. He moved to San Francisco in the early sixties. Since 1966, he has led the group that bears his surname, along the way selling over 40 million albums and performing live before over 15 million people. On over forty albums spanning forty years Santana's artistry has been described as transcendent, spiritual, stunning and genius. He has crossed over all genres, orchestrated numerous "comebacks" and cultivated tens of millions of devoted fans world-wide bridging generations, international boundaries and languages. I'm one of his fans and this weekend I'm celebrating 40 years of SANTANA. I hope you'll join me and enjoy.

Unfortunately, it's looking like I'll soon be wOOhOO'd out. I spent the day with the daughter and grandkids, and I'm struggling now to stay awake. I think I'm going to have to take a nap so that I can rest up enough so I'll be able to sleep. ;)

Good Evening to all the denizens of the Freeper Canteen. Your humble poster is hoping that all the loyal denizens are in good spirits amd health for the upcoming fine weekend. I am going to do something a little bit different for the next few weekends and present some paintings that I have picked up in my journeys through the Internet :-) Tonight's featured artist will be Stan Stokes. I will post a breif summarry of the picture before each one when possible. On with the pics...
BTW thes pics just happen to be the first ones that I came across while going through the files.
Ace in a Day:
Vern Graham, a young Navy pilot, was assigned to a newly organized squadron, VF-11 in 1942. Sent to Guadalcanal, int inexperienced Navy pilots were assigned the older and technically obsolete F4Fs while the Marines were flying the state-of-the-art F4U Corsairs. On one mission a large number of Japanese fighters jumped a flight on Corsairs, Returning from a long escort mission , a number of pilots from Graham's F4F flight came to the rescue on the Marines. In a few short minutes Graham would bag 5 Zekes. Out of fuel and ammo, he would crash-land his F4F on Russell Island, sustaining serious injuries.
Corsair on Final;
Here a Chance Vought F4U Corsair approaches the Carrier Valley Forge on final approach
Pappy's Corsair:
Could not find anything on this painting :-(
The Unlucky Eight: Here is Jim Swett in his first combat, which yielded seven aerial victories for the young USMC pilot. For his efforts, this ace-in-a-day was awarded the Medal of Honor
Medal of Honor Citation
For extraordinary heroism and personal valor above and beyond the call of duty, as division leader of Marine Fighting Squadron 221 with Marine Aircraft Group 12, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, in action against enemy Japanese aerial forces in the Solomons Islands area, 7 April 1943. In a daring flight to intercept a wave of 150 Japanese planes, 1st Lt. Swett unhesitatingly hurled his 4-plane division into action against a formation of 15 enemy bombers and personally exploded 3 hostile planes in midair with accurate and deadly fire during his dive. Although separated from his division while clearing the heavy concentration of antiaircraft fire, he boldly attacked 6 enemy bombers, engaged the first 4 in turn and, unaided, shot down all in flames. Exhausting his ammunition as he closed the fifth Japanese bomber, he relentlessly drove his attack against terrific opposition which partially disabled his engine, shattered the windscreen and slashed his face. In spite of this, he brought his battered plane down with skillful precision in the water off Tulagi without further injury. The superb airmanship and tenacious fighting spirit which enabled 1st Lt. Swett to destroy 7 enemy bombers in a single flight were in keeping with the highest traditions of the U.S. Naval Service.
Big Beautiful Doll:
One of the very few fighter pilots in World War II to achieve "ace" status in both the Pacific and European Theaters, John Landers is remembered as a skilled warrior and capable combat commander. Flying P-40s in the South Pacific with the 5th Air Force, he achieved six aerial victories, then was sent to England in 1944, where he flew with the 55th and 357th Fighter Groups and commanded the 78th F.G. He ended the war with 14 1/2 victories. His P-51 "Big Beautiful Doll" was one of the most colorfully-painted Mustangs; her paint scheme has been reproduced on many models and a restored P-51 as well!!!
Flying Tigers and Buffaloes:
The first print in a series to honor the AVG Flying Tigers, is a tribute to the "Adam and Eve" Squadron. It depicts the P-40 flown by Dick Rossi, scrambling with an RAF Buffalo from 67 Squadron. The RAF flew Buffaloes out of many of the same airfields used by the AVG during their campaign. The field is presumably Mingaladon Airport just outside of Rangoon.
That's all for tonight will be back tomorrow night with some more paintings.
Regards
