"Going to Iraq and
performing for our troops was by far the most amazing, gratifying
and moving experience of my entire career. Seeing them laugh and
watching them sing along to Lonestar, and meeting them after the
show is something that I will never forget. I'll take the memories
of working with Lonestar, Judy Seale and hanging out with the troops
with me for the rest of my life." - Greg Vac, Comedian
"Sometimes I don't understand what the news channels show, but
seeing is believing, and they really are doing a great job over
there. No matter what the soldiers are going through and
living without, they're professionalism and generosity still stands
strong. I admire that. You don't realize how much time
and workout soldiers are putting in for our freedom until you see it
with your own eyes. …..“one of the best experiences I have
ever had.” - Cody Collins - Lonestar
