“STARS FOR STRIPES” HOSTS AARON TIPPIN AT ANNUAL AUSA CONFERENCE

 

Aaron Tippin was once again the featured entertainer at the AUSA (Association of the U.S Army) Annual Conference in Washington D.C.  The nonprofit organization “Stars for Stripes”  provided entertainment for the third consecutive year for the U.S. Army Europe (USAREUR) “suite” at the conference.   Aaron performed on Tuesday night, October 9th, at the USAREUR Reception which is open to all branches of the Army – active, National Guard, Reserves, retirees, government civilians, family members and concerned citizens. 

 

Aaron rocked the crowd at last year’s event, resulting in a request for a repeat performance this year. Attendees were treated to a set filled with Patriotic songs including “Where the Stars and Stripes and the Eagles Fly” and “You’ve Got to Stand for Something”.   Immediately following the performance, Aaron signed autographs for the attendees and spent time visiting with several of the wounded heroes. 

 

Prior to his performance at the AUSA Conference, Aaron spent the day visiting patients at National Naval Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.  Aaron will be participating in an “MWR / STARS FOR STRIPES” tour to the Persian Gulf over the Holiday Season.   This will be Aaron’s third “MWR / STARS FOR STRIPES” Holiday tour spent entertaining the troops supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom.  He also performed with the legendary Bob Hope during the first Gulf War and visited troops in Afghanistan in 2002.  While touring the U.S., Aaron regularly donates his time performing for charities and special events which honor the U.S. Military.

 

“Stars for Stripes” is a nonprofit 501(C)3 organization dedicated to providing celebrity entertainment to troops deployed to remote areas overseas.  The organization is headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee.
