To the gallant crews of the Titanic and the Carpathia
To the passengers ... victims and survivors alike
We remember
Uphold them with Thy saving grace.
Thou Who supports with tender might
The balanced birds in all their flight.
Lord, if the tempered winds be near,
That, having Thee, they know no fear.
-- Mary C. D. Hamilton (1915)

In Their Own Words ..
Remembering the Forgotten Theater of World War II
The China - Burma - India Theater
Throughout the history of the world, in times of peril and aggression, nations have called upon their military forces for defense against their enemies. Our country has been very fortunate for, whenever the men and women who comprise our Army, Navy, air forces and other services have been called upon; they have served their country bravely and faithfully, regardless of where they were sent or what they were asked to do. Many Americans remember their dedicated service and are appreciative of their performances, but, too soon after the danger is over, the services of these veterans fade into oblivion. — 1st Lt. Albert O. Wilkat CBI Veteran, Pilot, 2nd Troop Carrier Squadron, USAAF
to the men of Merrill's Marauders
to the pilots and crews of the Burma Banshees
and to ALL who served in the CBI
"When you get back, tell them of us and say
For your tomorrow, we gave our today."

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea began as a 1961 movie in the theater.
Later, this series was shown on ABC from 1964 to 1968.
Richard Basehart, and his crew explored the ocean in the 1970s and 80s in the submarine, The Seaview. This unique sci-fi submarine actually became a best selling glue-it-together model for kids. The other flying vehicle proved to be just as popular in the stores.

I haven't seen this clip in years! On February 4, 1912, an Austrian tailor named Franz Reichelt decided to test a homemade parachute by jumping off the Eiffel Tower. A camera crew was there to film the event.

From the BNO Newsroom.
BANGKOK, Thailand (BNO NEWS) -- "Kung Fu" and "Kill Bill" star David Carradine was found dead in his hotel room in Bangkok on Thursday, a U.S. State Department official told BNO News. He was 72-years-old.
Carradine had been in Bangkok since Tuesday to shoot an upcoming movie. A U.S. State Department official said that Thai officials had notified the U.S. Embassy in Bangkok that Carradine had died but further details were not immediately released out of consideration for his family.
Thai police officials, however, say that Carradine did not show up when he and his film crew were supposed to dine at a restaurant in the Thai capital on Wednesday, but they assumed he took a break because of his age.
On Thursday, at around 10 a.m. local time, a hotel maid opened his suite and found the star hanging in a closet. According to a newspaper report, he was described as being half naked. There were no signs of a struggle.
His agent confirmed to KABC-TV that Carradine had died, but said he believed the star died of natural causes.

Remember these scary toys? These things weren't lacking anything when it came to scares. Around the time of Halloween, I pull out my Boglin and proceeed to scare the children with this little toy. I am always sure to get my Boglin obediance trained before this yearly event happens. I would go nowhere near the youngsters without doing so.
Do you own a Boglin? If not, you should of. Seems my Boglin screwed up the media rating system. I overlooked it til now. So you can rate away.
Everybody loves the Boglins.

Do you remember when ABBA vocalist Frida released this album of solo work? Frida drafted Genesis drummer/singer Phil Collins as she loved his solo work for her high charting record seller. Phil played & coproduced the album, including filling in on vocals. The "Something's Going On" clip, was shown on television stations around the world as the filming of songs was catching on much more then with a story based on the music.
On its release, the single went straight to the top of the charts, this was thanks to the work of the Genesis drummer.
This interesting clip was filmed on location in London, England during the summer of 1982.
The accompanying album would be released in the fall season of that year. ABBA at that time were having problems within their group. Soon after, ABBA would disband without regrouping for a reunion tour of any kind.
Exclusively shot, vocalist Frida was kind enough to let a camera crew make a documentary of the duration of her studio recording with the many ensembled for her all-English album.
