		The Corsairs have had excellent reviews in Southern Rock magazine, and are hoping more clubs will give them an opportunity to show their own brand of style and energy.

		The word "corsair" comes from the Latin word for "run" or "course,"[xviii] and is simply a pirate based in the Mediterranean Sea region.
		Essentially, the United States, under the Articles of Confederation, "was at the mercy of any power which might choose to rob it."[xxxiii] Taking advantage of the critical position of the weak Confederacy, the Barbary corsairs followed the "laws of prey, as practiced by wild animals,"[xxxiv] and devastated the Mediterranean commerce of the young nation.
		Maritime trade was a primary source of revenue for the thirteen colonies,[xl] and continued to be a primary revenue source after the United States was established as an independent nation.

	Encyclopedia of Arda: Corsairs of Umbar
		The fact that Umbar 'fell into the hands' of the Haradrim seems to suggest that Gondor voluntarily withdrew its occupying force to meet the Wainrider threat, rather than losing it to military action.
		This is open to question, but what seems clear is that the Haradrim permitted, and indeed probably encouraged, the Corsairs to resume their raids on Gondor's coasts.
		The last we hear of the Corsairs is on 13 March III 3019, the date that Aragorn captured their fleet and sailed it to the aid of Minas Tirith.

	Warbird Alley: Vought F4U Corsair
		Development of the Corsair began in 1938, when the US Navy issued a request for a new single-seat carrier-based fighter.
		The wing design was necessitated by the tall landing gear which was, in turn, necessitated by the huge propeller required to propel the plane at the desired high speeds.
		The Corsair served with the US Navy, US Marines, the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm, and the Royal New Zealand Air Force (and later, the French Aeronavale), and quickly became the most capable carrier-based fighter/bomber of the war.

		The mercenaries or the corsairs of the XXI Century?
		The use of mercenaries has been a historical constant till almost the end of the XX Century, when their activities were criminalized by the international community.
		In the same way as the corsairs differentiated themselves from the pirates because the former were authorized by the governments and the latter not, for they only pursued their own interests, the private security companies, by the fact of being registered and paying an annual tax to the government, cease to be considered mercenaries.

		Kollin Hancock was on the receiving end of two of Burbank's scoring tosses, the first being a 21-yarder, and the second being an 18-yarder on which Hancock displayed his coordination and field awareness by gracefully tip-toeing the corner of the end zone to remain in bounds on the reception.
		Corsair receiver Felix Adeye also accounted for one TD reception.
		In a game defined by big plays, none were bigger than this one: With Solano trailing 27-14, the Falcons were threatening deep in CR territory when a 4th-and-5 arose.

	FUERZA AEREA SALVADORENE CORSAIRS Air Classics - Find Articles
		A note must be made about the Skyraiders and Guardians: If Salvador had received the ADs, they would have had the most potent weapon in Central America; the offer of the submarine hunter/killer Guardian was most odd since it was not a particular success in USN service and was a complex aircraft to operate.
		With the original batch of Corsairs, the FAS also received a small number of Texans to augment their two airworthy examples.
		Obviously proud of their new charges, the FAS painted at least five of the aircraft in an overall white color scheme with blue trim and toured the planes to various towns where they performed aerobatics.

		The dastardly corsairs interrupted much of the Sunspear training with a cowardly attack on Chahbek Village.
		While the corsairs caused significant damage to the village before the Sunspears could respond, those responsible for the bloodshed were quickly slain, and the heroic Istani who fell in the village were avenged.
