Soldier Show 2013

The United States Army Soldier Show was moved up to May this year because their European leg was cancelled due to government funding cutbacks. So the Friday of Memorial Day week we hosted them at Fort Irwin. it was another great show this year. This year they brought a stage and all of the backdrops were done with a high intensity projector. They used a phone app called "sarge" that helped them find their way through the first weeks of being on base and walking them through what to expect of Army life. These guys work their ass off, they unload the trailers, set up the stage and sound, put on the show, tear it all down and pack it all up. That makes it a 16 to 18 hour day for them. And they usually do 3 shows a week. That's a lot of dedication.
