I feel like Renee just Googled "singers who served in the military" and grabbed the first 10 on the list.

Which will probably produce a better set than if she had put a lot of thought into it.

+1

And another +1. If one just googled "10 songs that have appeared on KFOG", the list wouldn't be much different. You'd think somebody totally unexpected would've popped up, like Foster The People or Samantha Fox (both of whom probably didn't serve).

BOS2 Jimi "Castles Made of Sand". This is beginning to resemble the Memorial Day set.

BB King. The thrill is gone, all right.
hey!

Nothing against Mr King, but it;s a fairly obvious choice from a fairly obvious "longtime Foghead favorite"

I'm trying to find the service history in the band, but so far have only seen that singer Richard Patrick is a big supporter of the troops. Well, that's probably good enough.

Never mind: http://www.defense.gov/News/NewsArticle.aspx?ID=49236

Maybe she put a fair amount of thought into this, after all.
