The Bishop Museum of Science and Nature

Join us for think + drink with retired Command Chief Master Sergeant Carl Hunsinger, founder and president of Manasota Veterans, Inc.
In Beyond the Flight Line: An Air Force Chief in Iraq, Hunsinger shares stories from his military career, including his deployment to Mosul, Iraq, where he became the first Air Force senior enlisted leader to temporarily serve in combat as an Army Command Sergeant Major while conducting convoy gun truck security.
Drawing on nearly 31 years of military service, including 26 months in direct combat operations and two Bronze Star Medals, one awarded by the Army and one by the Air Force, he offers a unique perspective on leadership, service, and military operations during the Iraq War.

Manatee Unitarian Universalist

Fifth-generation Floridian, singer-songwriter and storyteller Doug Spears has spent more than 30 years performing original folk and Americana music throughout FL and across the country. His songwriting draws on the people, places, history and character of FL and storytelling has always been an important part of his performances.
Spears recently released Blacktop Road and the album has been receiving excellent reviews. Orlando Weekly Music critic Bao Le-Huu described him as having “gentlemanly grace and John Denver-esque soul” and characterized the album as “a classic slice of Florida folk portraiture.” 
For this show he’ll be joined by Ron and Bari Litschauer, longtime fixtures of Florida’s folk and acoustic music community. Ron is an exceptional guitarist and mandolin player and Bari brings her distinctive banjo and tenor guitar playing to the trio. Together, it’s a musical friendship and easygoing stage chemistry that makes their concerts as much about the stories, humor and shared experience as the songs themselves.
