Episode 496, Anchors Aweigh!

This episode of Wind & Rhythm celebrates the 243rd birthday of the US Navy. On October 13, 1775 the US Navy was established and we commemorate the occasion with nautical-themed selections performed by the US Navy Band.  From whales to victory at sea, fair winds and following seas, drink to the foam until we meet once more.
