By producing more and more positive, peaceful results, I wish you to be my guardian deities for going to Shohei Ohtani! I will try harder! And I wish you to make "Peaceful Dedications" together with all other NATO Troops and Japanese Defense Forces for the sake of World Peace, Democracy, and Welfare of all the humankind! I firmly believe the necessity of encouraging people of Communist countires, like China, N. Korea, Russia and other people under the control of them! Always thanks very much! Miki

Even if I go by myself, I would be Totally Disturbed variously both Domestically before get on the plane and Even After Reaching to LA.
The Fast Eatig Drill was, According to my dad, the Officer in charge of boys soldiers was Carrying his Whitsle and Very When he Whitsled, all the boys Had to Stop Eating Immediately! That was the Fast Eating Drill So That they could Finish Eating when they were Almost Attacked by you US Armed Forces. All the Japanese Boys were Starved in those days, regardless of being soldeirs or not.... That's why many boys Applied for being soldiers because they were able to eat enough food, incl. Rice, our Staple. But only Seemingly Excellent boys were selected, and going to the boys soldiers school named "Yoka-Ren" or Preparatory Practice School? was my dad's Big Pride. So, anyhow, all the boys soldiers Desperately Learned How to Eat Fast and Became very fast eater, like Human Vacuume Cleaner like my dad.
The music isn't bad. But the group doesn't seem very harmonious, it doesn't look as if they enjoy making music together. somehow cramped. I always thought this kind of music would be more joyful.
it is their job. jobs ruin hobbies. For the exception of the singer, they probably didn't anticipate that their musical career would be in mariachi. It is very niche.
WOW! On The Stars and Stripes, I didn't miss the piccolo a bit! Great job, soprano sax! MANY THANKS, "New Mexico's Own", for a rousing 4th of July concert! Happy 4th to each and every one of you!
My wife's Dad, her cousin, and my uncle served in the U.S. Navy. ANCHORS AWEIGH! Another uncle of mine AND my brother served in the U.S. Air Force. KEEP 'EM FLYIN'!
What a beautiful sight...seeing the NEW MEXICO flag being raised just below the Stars and Stripes. I miss seeing that since we moved from New Mexico. I proudly keep a New Mexico state flag in our Southwest Room at home! Viva Nuevo Mexico! I didn't think I'd like the National Anthem played by electric guitars, but I DID! FUNKY TOWN...A GREAT blast from the past!
I am embarrassed to say, I totally would not have recognized the Coast Guard piece, but could play all the others. I, too, notice the absence of Merchant Marines, in which my Dad served for last couple of years of WWII.
