SUMMARY:Blood Chits\, Short Snorters\, and Nose Art: Robert Bindo Fain in the South Pacific
DESCRIPTION:Join brothers John and Scott Fain on Wednesday\, March 4th at 6pm at the Mystic VFW\, for a presentation about their father\, Robert Bindo Fain (1923-1991)\, and his experiences in the South Pacific during World War II. A Mystic native\, Fain was drafted into the Army Air Forces and served on board a B-25 bomber. He flew in 57 missions and collected dozens of photographs\, military records\, and artifacts that tell the story of his experiences as a gunner in the South Pacific theater from 1943 until 1945. Many of these photographs depict “nose art”\, decorative painting usually on the fuselage of World War II era airplanes\, depicting women from popular culture. Fain was shot down twice and awarded the Purple Heart. He later worked for the Cottrell Company and as a machinist at Electric Boat. \nDue to the graphic nature of the artwork shown and discussed in this program\, we recommend this program for mature audiences only. You have been warned! \n  \nThis event is free and open to the public\, and is generously co-hosted by the Mystic VFW.

SUMMARY:Cemetery Clean Up Day
DESCRIPTION:Always wondered about Stonington’s numerous historic cemeteries? Want to do your part to help preserve the final resting places of Revolutionary War veterans and their families? \nThe Stonington Cemetery Commission has partnered with Historic Stonington\, the Abigail Hinman Chapter of the DAR  and the America 250 Committee to host a Headstone Cleaning Workshop on Saturday\, April 25th from 10am to 12pm at the Thomas Miner cemetery on Wilcox Road\, across from the Quiambaug Cove Professional Center. All cleaning materials will be provided\, all you have to bring along is a pair of work gloves and some water to stay hydrated. Members of the Cemetery Commission will provide a short demonstration on best practices for headstone cleaning\, and talk briefly about the people who are buried in the cemetery before work commences. This is a great way to get involved in your local community\, while also paying respect to the brave men and women who have gone before us. \nNo registration is necessary. Parking will be available in the QCPC parking lot across the street from the Avalonia parcel where the cemetery is located\, off Wilcox Road.
