The Enchanted Forest: Pensacola Opera Visits Century Branch Library
October 11, 2019
Pensacola Opera presented “The Enchanted Forest” Thursday evening at the Century Branch Library.
In the epic adventure, children had a chance to help the characters save the forest from a fire-breathing dragon. Children were able to cast the hero, villain, sidekick, and love interest right at the top of the show. Complete with dramatic twists and turns — and music from iconic composers including Mozart and Bizet — the performance depended on audience participation to find the right path and make the best choice.

NAS Pensacola Names 10-Year Old Cancer Patient As Commanding Officer
October 9, 2019
NAS Pensacola made a young man commanding officer Tuesday afternoon as he continues his battle with cancer.
Kohlton James, 10, visited NAS Pensacola and was named commanding officer for the afternoon.
“Skipper” Kohlton was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 2 and battled it for seven years. Kohlton was cancer free for 10 months before it returned.
He is about to begin chemotherapy and is determined to beat it again.
His dream is to join the military and be a pilot. Capt. Tim Kinsella Jr., commanding officer, gave Kohlton a NAS Pensacola hat with his new call sign, “Iron Man,” and a set of aviation wings.
He was also given a signed photograph from the Blue Angels and was driven to the National Naval Aviation Museum in a police car. At the museum, he had a party with his friends and got to pose for a photograph in front of the F4U Corsair aircraft his great grandfather actually flew in World War II.
Base officials said they look forward to the day Kohlton returns to NAS Pensacola to become a Navy pilot.
