FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT

Showing support and boosting the morale
of our military and our allied military
and the family members of the above.
Honoring those who have served before.

MUSIC NIGHT
To keep you all in the mood
for the music thread
Fabulous FRiday presents

JIMI HENDRIX

Born Johnny Allen Hendrix on November 27, 1942
in Seattle, Washington.
He was one of five children.

After initial success in Europe
with his group The Jimi Hendrix Experience,
Hendrix achieved fame in the United States following
his 1967 performance at the Monterey Pop Festival.

He is widely considered to be the
greatest electric guitarist in music history

Hendrix was considered one of the most
influential musicians of his era
despite mainstream exposure limited to four years.

Hendrix won several prestigious rock music awards
during his lifetime, and many more posthumously.

TRIVIA

In early life, Hendrix got into trouble
with the law twice for riding in stolen cars.

He was given a choice between spending two years in prison
or joining the Army.
Hendrix chose the latter and enlisted on May 31, 1961.

After basic training, he was assigned to the 101st Airborne Division
and stationed in Fort Campbell, Kentucky.

Private Hendrix received an honourable
discharge on the basis of
"unsuitability" on June 29, 1962.

Hendrix was well known for his unique
sense of fashion and wardrobe
and his Dylan-esque (c. 1966) hairstyle.

Early on September 18, 1970,
Jimi Hendrix died in London.

Come on in and dig some oldies but goodies.

Remember, the Canteen is a family friendly place.
We welcome the military, our allies, and their families.
Continued prayers for the success and completion of your mission.
Prayers for your safe return home.

Pain level seems to be receding, thank the Lord! Mary is home and we're pleased as punch! Must retire now - will talk to you on the morrow!



Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)
