This Day in Naval History – PT-109

PT-109

August 2nd, 1943:

John F. Kennedy’s PT boat was run over while patroling the Ferguson and Blackett Straits near the islands of Kolumbangara, Gizo, and Vella-Lavella.

And, as an aside, it seems the great ship finder, Robert Ballard found the wreckage in 2002.

Planning a Rememberance for the 9/11 Victims

August 2nd, 2006 by xformed

Project 2996 logo

From Black Five, a post about a project to have each of the 2996 victims from 9/11/2001 to have a blogger each post a tribute (on 9/11, of course).

This link will get you there. Take a few moments, fellow bloggers, to sign up, and then connect your life with one that was cut short.

The cost involved is your time and your compassion, nothing more. There only to the 1100s….so there are plenty of names left.

Muslim Family Photo Session

From Station Commando:
“It was hard work for Habib to get all those ninjas to stand still long enough for a pic. Shortly after this photo was taken there was a sudden puff of smoke and Habib was found with numerous throwing star wounds and a stray set of nunchucks was found lying at his feet.”
