The Who-Love, Rain O'er Me...some classic rock.

Oran 'Juice' Jones-The Rain...from the 80's, an urban "I caught you cheating" song.

Wow, great story.

I remember this like it was yesterday.......we were traveling back from Nam to Travis AFB in the "Freedom bird".

Dawn was just breaking as we approached the USA west coast.....the pilot banked the aircraft so the beautiful California coast came into view and said over the PA system...."Gentlemen, Welcome back to the United States of America".....most everyone on board sobbed with joy.

If you get a chance, stop by the FReeper Canteen, Monday-Friday at 6:00 PM PDT (soon to be PST). And also on weekends.

We have a lot of Vets here to get to know and some great, patriotic FReeper galz who run the show.

We're here to lift and support each other and to have a good time to boot!

Nice chatting with you!

I served in the Georgia National Guard from 1971-1977 to avoid going to “The Nam”.
I have never felt worthy to stand in the shadow of guys like you.
May GOD bless you and yours.
May GOD save The Republic.

“I Get the Blues When it Rains” (1928) by Annette Hanshaw.

Have an original 78rpm disc of this one. Always been a favorite.

One of the great lines of all time: "You without me, like cornflake without the milk."

Did a quick scan of the CD rack to see what was around - “Rain” is a toughie for the classics - there’s also the storm that wrecks the ship at the end of “Scheherazade”, but that piece is such fertile ground for so many themes it becomes almost too easy to mention it - maybe a sign of a good piece of music....
