Just before the show started the Garrison Commander talked, then Drew Dix, a Medal of Honor recipient from Vietnam spoke, then they introduced Gary and the band. They played through the set at one point meeting a Sergeant Gump :) nand at another bringing up another soldier to get serenaded and finally bringing on the kids. At the end, Gary gave a great speech honoring the sacrifice of the brave young soldiers and their families, then the Garrison Commander and the Garrison CSM presented Gary with a plaque that included a signed art print done by the CSM. Then Gary headed inside, met about 40 soldiers to talk and give out autographs before he hit the road back to his awaiting plane home.
