๐บ๐ฒCANNON and NUMBERS PhotoChain Challenge #118 ๐ธโ
Hello, Friends!
Back again with a fun adventure finding a good fitting photograph -- or two -- for the Photochain Challenge contest's theme.
This week the pair of keywords are CANNON and NUMBERS chosen by @hindavi and @adinapoli, respectively.
๐๐Congratulations on your winning entries!๐๐
The images for my entry were taken outside The City of St. Peters Rec-Plex located in Saint Peters, Missouri where our son's summer swim league competed in the All County Tournament.
"The Rec-Plex Natatorium is a world-class facility that has hosted the U.S. Olympic Diving Trials, U.S. Olympic Festival aquatic events, national and regional competitions, and many local competitions." source

BILL RUPP
UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS 1942-1945
HEAVY WEAPONS BATTALION

Upon searching to find out more about Bill Rupp I discovered the following information:

The twin brothers enlisted in 1942 into the Marine Corps and served throughout the Pacific. Lloyd was a rear gunner on a Douglas SBD dauntless dive bomber and Bill was an anti-aircraft gunner.

Perfect! I'm beginning to look for photos with Wheels already ๐
I would hold off a bit if I were you! Thanks for the support and laugh.๐
Whoops I must have jinxed it with my premature celebration. My apologies. But I think your entry was really cool. Up next. Tomatoes and cap. Excited to see your entry @ninahaskin ๐
No worries! It's anyone's guess whose entry will win each week. Yes an interesting combination of words for us this week and not difficult to create.๐ ๐งข
Look forward to seeing yours post Always appreciate your support and reading your comments, my friend! @gems.and.cookies
Good stuff my friend
Thank you and greetings, Robin!๐น๐ฏโค
I see that cool. I didn't realize the suggestion was the word numbers. I was trying to figure out what number it was lol
That's funny! Yes, the numbers were featured on the plaque
I love cannons and I like how Bill was honoured at the sports game!
Both Bill and his twin brother Lloyd. Makes me wonder how many twins served together in branches of the military...
Ah yes the twins Bill and Lloyd.
I think there will have been quite a few that served together. It is an interesting thought though!
I'll have to look up that statistic sometime, unless someone reading this on here wants to run with it! ๐๐๐
Would be an interesting stat to try and figure out ๐ฎ
I am a huge Blues NHL hockey fan and did not hear or know about Bill and his twin brother Lloyd being recognized at a home game so I found the information interesting.
I must admit that I did not St Louis had a hockey team nor that it was called the blues.
I do like hockey but that is because of New York Rangers, as my football team is Glasgow Rangers and from where all Rangers sports team take their name and colours!
It was great to know that the twins got honoured at a home game, my team has a bond too with veterans and we have an armed forces day where so many of them get into watch the game for free and they do displays etc.
I see.
Numbers refer to the dates on the Memorial.
I wish I could make more time for other fun initiatives.
